I traded off the Contax D for something else that I can't recall, and my Exacta no longer functions, but its little brother, the Exa still works fine. I also have a Pentax Spotmatic with several associated lenses that serves my needs as an SLR. Yes, it is nice when every day is Saturday. However, with all that I do now, I don't see how I ever found time to work. Thanks for looking.
