One I won't be looking out for is the one they used to 
shoot the Ricoh GR-1:-)

It gives no impression at all of what a wonderful 
little camera it is.

Swap the Canon AE-1 for an A1, too. The A1 is on the 
s/h market at give-away prices and does a lot more than 
the AE1 - and is reported to be a lot more reliable (if 
you can get one without the squealing "asthmatic" 
noises [if it has, all it needs is a simple CLA - which 
is a sensible idea anyway]).

Otherwise, a pretty good selection.

Thanks for posting the link, Simon
Cheers
