This is an OLD thread, but for similar questions by anyone.
The thread mounted lens was a PIA to deal with when changing lenses often, and especially if you are trying to change the lens quickly. This was why I switched from a screw mount camera, to a bayonet mount camera.
If you don't change lenses often or are not in a rush, then screw mount is just fine.
Alternatively, get a spare body, and leave a different lens on each body. Example, 35mm on body1, 100mm on body2. That way you may not even have to change lenses. This used to be an extravagent $$$$ idea, but with today's low price of used film cameras, it is now a very reasonable idea.
