Why not use the Pentax ZX-M instead of the Ricoh?  It is available new
from B&H Photo <URL:http://www.bhphoto.com/> for about $150 for the
body, takes K mount lenses, has manual and auto exposure, and can be
readily electronically twinned.  Best of all you don't have to deal
with Cambridge Camera (one of the sleaziest of the NYC consumer
electronic rip off shops).
