Can anyone give their two cents on the performance of this camera. I'm trying to get into photography, but I have no idea if this is a good deal.


Jabin, it would have been nice if you were an established user instead of a newbie, because I can't ask any of the members if you're trustworthy.

For a stater camera to be used in school this is a great deal and the camera is very nice too. I'd buy it but i already have too many manual cameras,

The zx-m is a great camera, its a nice mix between the newer cameras and older ones. It's completely manual, but it has an automatic film advance, and an electronic meter. Its a great camera to start out with. I'd say $100 is a good deal if everythign is in good condition. Would you be interested in parting with just the camera and lens?

If you decide to sell the body and lens to trogdor, would you consider selling the bw film to me? :D
