I'm using a T2i at the moment. I borrowed some older Canons from a friend of mine, specifically the AE-1...did not like it at-all :ugh:

Yeah I originally intended on getting a k1000 due to it's simplicity but thought it wouldn't be as good quality as the MX. I'm also worried about having the fact it doesn't have an auto-off or switch for the meter, forgetting not to replace the lens cover when walking about the streets would, I imagine, kill the battery far more quickly than preferable.
I'm not too worried about having to use the stop-down metering, but I can't know for sure how I'll respond to it without using it. Same goes for the M42 or PK lenses.
I'm a little...concerned about getting an camera with automatic features; which is why I hadn't considered any of them. I've used DSLR's for a couple years and half the time I end up using some form of auto. One of the reasons I wanna get into film photography is to learn how to properly photograph, a manual camera would force me to do this. I don't wanna end up habitually switching to auto.

I've decided to delve into film photography and after some online research decided to go with a Pentax. :D
I was wondering which would be a better choice, a Spotmatic SP-II or MX? (Or another suggestion perhaps?)
I'm a little worried about the MX's LED light meter indicators as I've read they can be hard to see when in bright light.
