not to mention the Dynax 7000 i the first AF SLR of the '80s, with motor
drive, DX coding of the film, etc. My aunt brought it with her in '85
from Canada, a true sensation. Back then only a 50 mm 1.8 was available
for this mount. You're right for a little more money you can have an
excellent P&S like the Nikon B-600 (280 euros here) or even an used one,
good ones will last many years. or even a smartphone with a good camera,
my niece bought an used iPhone 10 for not so much money.
