<<As someone who has thought (only thought) about switching to AF, I'd be
interested to know your reasons for switching back to manual OM. I have a
lot of OM including macro gear and would not consider abandoning the OM
system.>>

After much soul searching (why do we have to search our very soul to buy a
camera?),
I got myself a Minolta MAXXUM.  Not the expensive so called pro body but a
middle of the line model.  The reason is, I have been having difficulty
focusing in low light, like banquets etc.  To tell you the truth, I like it!
It is also handy for touring without a camera bag around your neck.  I would
hate to do without the OM system and would most likely never be able to
replace it's all around flexibility or quality.
I feel there is a place for most types of gear and needs and wants are a
personal thing.
