I just want to inform you that FE2 is not only newer than FE but also
has
1. higher max. shutter speed, i.e. 1/4000 sec for FE2 versus only
   1/1000 for FE
2. higher shutter flash sync, 1/250 sec for FE2 and 1/125 for FE
So, FE2 is not the same as FE, FE2 is an improved FE I might say.
Of course $449 for FE2 is high but a lot of people are still looking
for used FE2's
Sorry to spoil your ad.
