Re: [APML] Pentax 6x7



Bob,

    The new Pentax 67 II is what you want ... it comes with interchangeable
screens and you can lock the mirror up and expose without battery drain all
built into the unit. If all you want to do is astrophotography get one with
the magnifying hood ... the prism finders are dim and heavy by comparison.
If you will be doing terrestrial shooting as well, then the AE finder is
awesome for that. Most of the current lenses are very good ... the 165mm and
90mm are superb ... there is also a 300mm f/4 ED-IF that is superb if you
can justify the expense ... comets coming !!!

     Tony
