To be honest GAS isn't too bad at the moment, I've got so many to shoot with it seems pointless to keep adding to the queue. That's not to say that if a really good deal came up I'd say no, but it's also a little harder with a mortgage to cover. Johnny, did you win the ME Super? The Program A is like a later version of the ME in many ways. Not sure how many shots are left in the Kiev 4, just be most of the way through by now.

Nah, I let it go. I've got a Super A as I probably keep telling you, it's got just about everything. I've never had an issue with mine, bought it secondhand in 1998.
At least the MX focus screen just goes straight in, no tools.

Re: Vintage film cameras
 

Yeah, very similar to the OM1 screens. I did offer up an OM one but it's just a tad too big.

Re: Vintage film cameras
 

Managed to score an untested MX. If it's unservicable I'll transfer over the focus screen and top plate.

Re: Vintage film cameras
 

Cool!

Re: Vintage film cameras
 

No one interested in the Program A? Don't want anything for it, only bought the lot for the MX.

You could put a new post in the Photos section, I'm not sure many people venture in here! I see I claimed the 6000th post without realising.
I wonder how hard it would be to put a mobile phone camera in an old camera body. Take the lens glass out and replace with a plain piece of glass, mount the phone camera behind it, pack all the other stuff away and connect it all up to the shutter etc. Trying to replicate the 35mm film plane seems too hard.

Too dangerous to venture in here! People come in looking to sell stuff and end up with a collecting condition!

Nice! A fully working MX is a lovely little camera.
Tempted by the glass mainly ....... https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digita...8mm/1330746836

The MX is a tiny little thing, hope I can make a working one out of both of these. I'd snap that SRT up, it's only £20! The sun is shining, excuse to get your bike out!
