It took me over a year to make the jump to a Seagull.

You would prob'y have to search an archive, I made a few posts
concerning costs.  I labored over the decision for over a year, and
decided that the Seagull 109 was the way to go.  I was very surprised
to find they had only one model with flash X synch, but since my
hand-me-down Mamiaya 35mm had that, I wanted to keep the feature.  I
like having to have a seperate light meter, and look forward to
getting to use it with the old Mamiaya.

I would have liked something with interchangeable lenses, but that
would entail me having to carry around a camera that costs as much as
a used car.

I will let you know how it turns out.  Thanks for kind and helpfull
remarks in the past.  I am running out now to take a few pictures.
