In 1987 I scrimped & saved for the Minolta 9000 body .I had a 5000 maxum US camera again a lot cheaper than the UK camera got a good price for the 5000 though . Little did we know then the digital revolution to come My beloved 9000 will stay with me for ever.Still got the box & all the paperwork I did ask some techos if it could be converted to digital. I got some funny looks I can tell you .Some people have not got a sense of humour I come from an age you don't throw away good gear . So when I found out I could reuse my lenses it was a most pleasant surprise . As I am nearing the twilight of my life I will have to lower my expectations . Like you Terry perhaps the the 580 will come down quite a lot .

Regards Peter

What Maxxum lenses do you have? I really love my 70-210 f/4 'beercan'. The 'bokeh' is second to none. - Terry
