RedRabbit & pal,
Thanks for your replies, I appreciate it! The Sony sounds like a good one that has a great name. I had thought of resurrecting one of the old Asahi Pentax I still have? (Ah, the old days of 35mm film...!)
I'm going to keep thinking on it a bit yet now. Your input is valued very much! Thank you..
Sincerely,
Brittman
