<p>The old perfect kit would have a camera body and a bunch of lenses including a fast prime, and several other lenses in a big bag. The new perfect kit would be just one hybrid superzoom camera with Carl Zeiss glass that guarantees IQ, Sony HX400V.<br />

<p>Get a Minolta Maxxum 7000. It's cheap enough with 50mm AF f1.7 lens. A good flash for it runs $20 more. There's a hack posted in some forum to convert the MD 50mm f1.4 to fit MA mount.<br /> The Maxxum can go full manual, full program, A, S modes, can be set to manual focus or autofocus at your choosing. One great new feature of the Maxxum is that you can buy a $12 M42-MA adapter with focus confirm to mount any M42 lens on the Maxxum. Pentax M42 lenses are excellent at reasonable price. Russian Helios prime lenses are very sharp with M42 mount.<br /> However, one missing feature on the Maxxum is the film advance lever. It's good and bad depending on how you see it. Auto film advance guarantees that you won't miss a shot if you ever forgot to advance the film.</p>

<p>I think most manual cameras with the same company's lenses perform similarly in the hands of an experienced photographer. The final print quality is dictated by one thing, the Kodak films. <br> So buy any manual camera that you like.</p>

<p>The perfect camera has Carl Zeiss lens mounted on it.</p>
