• Thinking about selling my Pen D3..... but keep finding photos I like. It's just hard work getting them with now way of checking the focus.

  • Thanks. I really like this ^ bridge.

    I hear what you say. I have just started playing with an Agfa 935 (an amazing lens but uses zone focusing) and like the xa2: whilst the hit-rate is actually good, it's just an unsettling experience shooting with 'guess focus'.

    I'm interested in all this too: I've been so happy with results from my Electro35MC that I've started thinking of replacing my rangefinder with a Bessa L...
    Whilst I've no doubt an f1.7 will increase your error rate (vs. the f2.8 on my Yashica) I've found it surprisingly forgiving and come to love the combination of P&S immediacy with aperture control that you get from zone focussing (I like to feel like I'm in control, but often can't be arsed with peering into a viewfinder and twiddling a lens)
