If anybody simply happens to need a screw mount body that is compatible 
with most open auto lenses, including the Tamron screw mount Adaptalls, 
I have a very nice, recently CLAed Fujica ST605n for sale. I bought it 
for a project that didn't happen. I did a lot of research, which 
indicated it is one of the finest of the auto aperture bodies ever made. 
Almost perfect cosmetic condition, too.
