The last clean viewfinder SLR made - Pentax LX with an FA-2 prism. lesdmess, What do you mean "last clean viewfinder"? Mickey I actually meant to say prism as opposed to viewfinder. The other "clean" predecessors and the "unclean" successors. More of the "clean" prisms in my collection.

A SMC Pentax- M 1.2 50mm (K-mount) on my K-3 I was only aware of an SMC Pentax 50mm F1.2 and a SMC Pentax-A 50mm F1.2 but not an "M" version?

Very nice group of camera's though.. also must be at least a little uncommon as I havent run across any of them in my searches Bob Likely regional in nature. Myself, the OM3 and the Zuiko lens are the ones I saw the least of.

That is only appropriate that the Nikon FM3A looks out of place since it was released in 2001 - at a time long after autofocus has been introduced and digis were starting to take hold. I appreciate the full hybrid shutter system that has aperture priority when batteries are good yet full shutter speeds available in manual mode when batteries are dead. This is a good read about it -> Nikon FM3A

Any time of the year, really! It gets hot and humid in the summer, so I might avoid that, but spring and fall are definitely very pleasant. As for the Fujifilms, lesdmess@, I was able to get a hold of ISO100 film as well; are you looking for specific sizes or formats when you refer to film? I would think that during the world famous cherry blossom season would be a great time to visit Tokyo. What unique ISO100 films are you referring to - Reala? I shoot mostly 35mm and occasionally some medium format.
