But Tom,
You are comparing apples to oranges. Why by a OM 4T for $450 used when you
can get a pentax K1000 for $80...
The Aria is some where between an OM 2sp+winder and a 4T+winder depending on
the features you are looking at... Not sure what sort of longevity you can
expect from it...
Not trying to defend the Aria, but we should make the comparison equitable.

||You could get an OM-1, 24/2.8, and 50/1.8 and get change from $300.
