david_m Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Early electronic cameras are not very reliable. Make sure whatever you buy works properly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm_sparks Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 The AZ-1 will only do "open aperture" metering properly with the dedicated Fujinon ST lenses, and the Pentax ES only with the very late dedicated Pentax lenses. Both of these lens series are very good performers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_hayden Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 <p>I am not an expert here but there are some other options in addition to the lenses made by Fuji. For example, I have the original Tokina 28-80 f/4 zoom in the Fuji full aperture metering M-42 mount. There is potential for conflict in using this on non-Fuji bodies though I have not had problems with mine. There were also Fuji M42 open aperture metering mounts for either Tamron Adaptall or Vivitar (Tokina) TX -- maybe both. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_hayden Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 <p>Update: I now have a Tamron Adaptamatic mount for the Fujica AZ-1 and am enjoying full aperture metering with the Tamron 28-200.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
