If I were to guess, the ttl flash metering with mf lenses would be the #1 reason. It can also do the p-ttl flash but isn't compatible with m42, M or k lenses. Another reason would be the prism and viewfinder. There's also the magic green button. It is also one of the very few Pentax dSLR that not only shoots RAW and jpg but tiff as well.

All of those things make it a good m42 & mf platform as well as a dedicated macro body Very Happy

Blue is spot on! The viewfinder is superb! Almost as good as a 35mm slr ...

Since I shoot mainly in "M" mode, I don't need fancy funtions, but TTL flash IS helpful at times (macro especially). _________________ Klaus - Admin "S'il vient a point, me souviendra" [Thomas Bohier (1460-1523)] http://www.macrolenses.de for macro and special lens info http://www.pbase.com/kds315/uv_photos for UV Images and lens/filter info https://www.flickr.com/photos/kds315/albums my albums using various lenses http://photographyoftheinvisibleworld.blogspot.com/ my UV BLOG http://www.travelmeetsfood.com/blog Food + Travel BLOG https://galeriafotografia.com Architecture + Drone photography Currently most FAV lens(es): X80QF f3.2/80mm Hypergon f11/26mm ELCAN UV f5.6/52mm Zeiss UV-Planar f4/60mm Zeiss UV-Planar f2/62mm Lomo Ð£Ñ„Ð°Ñ€-12 f2.5/41mm Lomo Ð—ÑƒÑ„Ð°Ñ€-2 f4.0/350mm Lomo ZIKAR-1A f1.2/100mm Nikon UV Nikkor f4.5/105mm Zeiss UV-Sonnar f4.3/105mm CERCO UV-VIS-NIR f1.8/45mm CERCO UV-VIS-NIR f4.1/94mm CERCO UV-VIS-NIR f2.8/100mm Steinheil Quarzobjektiv f1.8/50mm Pentax Quartz Takumar f3.5/85mm Carl Zeiss Jena UV-Objektiv f4/60mm NYE OPTICAL Lyman-Alpha II f1.1/90mm NYE OPTICAL Lyman-Alpha I f2.8/200mm COASTAL OPTICS f4/60mm UV-VIS-IR Apo COASTAL OPTICS f4.5/105mm UV-Micro-Apo Pentax Ultra-Achromatic Takumar f4.5/85mm Pentax Ultra-Achromatic Takumar f5.6/300mm Rodenstock UV-Rodagon f5.6/60mm + 105mm + 150mm
