Decent plastic-bodied SLR with manual controls?

[David Hughes]

As we are weighing cameras; I've a film in the M4 and the standard Summicron on it. The camera, lens, ERC and meter and lens hood weigh 1249g or about 2lb 12 oz...

There's also film in the Olympus XA1 and both it and my Weston Euro Master meter weigh 205g.

There's a moral there, somewhere.


Regards, David

I like this:

These are good but prone to shutter fault. Sounds good, mirror flups but shutter doesnt open. Its hardly light either, only a little lighter than my Nikkormat
