i just looked thu the specs, didnt notice the battery issue. im guessing that they all have proprietary batteries. it could make this a $100 camera by the time its delivered. not sure its worth that much.

Amen. They all work identically fantastically. They do NOT all feel the same in the hand. Far from it.

And are lenses interchangable if you have, for example, an old Cannon zoom lens that originally came with an AE-1? If so then I guess I'd lean towards a Cannon just because I have that lens.
