Janet, hi I have used a Rollei SL66 system for 20 years. A few years ago I acquired a Pentax 645 NII to shoot a project. I found the compact Pentax a delight to use, and it has now replaced my 35m/m system most of the time. The view finder with its adjustable magnifier works great. Having the ability to use auto focus, and auto exposure provides a versatility of 35m/m. The Camera has proven very reliable. The lenses are really good and the ergonomics of holding and using the camera are in my opinion excellent. Over the last 15 years Pentax service in Colorado has done an excellent job of maintaining my 35m/m LX cameras at a very reasonable cost. The Pentax N series is much improved over the original Pentax 645 because Pentax replaced using buttons to adjust functions on an LCD screen to rotating knobs. Check Pentax for more information. http://www.pentaximaging.com/support/manuals-and-literature/ Jonathan Ayers [mail1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG.
