Review Summary

I love this camera! First camera to have matrix metering, plus center weighted and PSAM exposure modes. I upgraded the easily interchangeable focusing screen to the K3 from the much later FM3a. Large, bright viewfinder and built in viewfinder blind. Solid, all metal construction. To me, a much better camera than either the FE/2 or FM/2/3a, or even the F3. What the F3 adds I don't use, and F3's motor drive is ridiculously large and heavy. Just a nearly perfect manual focus camera for me. unfortunately, the one I received was defective, with a battery drain issue, that was either impossible to repair (parts are scarce) or not financially reasonable to repair. I will probably get another one some day soon.
