Gary, have you read anything about the Minolta Maxxum 5? Shutter speeds from 30 sec to 1/4000. I know yours has a wider range. Sep.2001 Photographic has that report. This camera seems to have better autofocus capabilities than the other Maxxum cameras. I've looked at the Canon and Nikon, I can't seem to get comfortable with either.

PHOTOgraphic Nov. '01 has thier annual 35mm buyers guide, quite a bit of info there. March '01 has "digital vs. film"
