[APML] Wich Camera?

[Alen Koebel <alen_koebel@yahoo.ca>]

Carlos,

I have both the K1000 and the OM-1. (I also just got
a Nikon F2 but haven't used it yet.) I use the OM-1
for prime focus because it allows a brighter screen
to be installed (I have the Beattie Intenscreen).
I use the K1000 for piggy-back. The 50mm f/2 lens 
it came with is not too good, but I hear the 55mm f/2
Super Takumar is great (see link below). The 100mm
f/2.8, 135mm f/3.5 and 200mm f/4 Pentax SMC lenses
(all manual focus) are pretty good.

Hi all

I pretend to buy a new camera (used, new for me),
better than that i
allready have (Topcon RE300).

My options are by one hand the Nikon F3 ($535) or the
Canon F1 ($480), and
by the other, Pentax K1000 ($110) or Olympus OM-1
($150).

I want it for wide field pics. I know that Nikon and
Canon are better than
the others, but they are expensive... Also, i don't
know wich camera should
i buy between Canon and Nikon. Sugestions?


Regards,

Carlos Milovic F.
