[QUOTE="Retro, post: 488504, member: 37517"] I got my F5 yesterday. It's not mint, as I had expected, but it's in decent shape. I complained about scratches to the viewfinder, and the seller refunded me $100, which I promptly put towards a new DP-30. I've also ordered a new MS-30. When your batteries die, you don't want to be fumbling with the cradle removing dead batteries and installing new ones. You can miss a lot of action that way, so I want a spare. I'll fill it with new batteries and keep that cradle handy in a camera bag or pocket. I'll just wrap the old DP-30 up in bubble wrap and put it away in storage for if I ever need it. I just couldn't bear to look at this huge scratch every time I bring the camera to my face. I played with the Ch mode....Wow! This thing is fast! I can't wait to blow a roll on 5 or 6 seconds of action. [/QUOTE]
