I'll just pop into this charity shop...

Wow! Christmas came early.

Kenzie · 17-06-17, 05:05 PM

The mtl came with a 50mm Pentacon f1.8 (has aperture issues) a 135mm f3.5 Carl Zeiss Jena and a Hanimex 80-200 f4.5. The case apart from the obvious Cokin filters had a Sigma mini wide 2 28mm and a Sigma 80-200. It looks like it used to contain a Ricoh KR10 Super as there was a receipt from South Africa inside. Last sold in 2003 by Cash Converters for £120! £9.99 for the case and £12.99 for the camera. No car boot for me this week.

Blimey! Quite a haul. Checked with Poundland, they are indeed going to stop selling film. I wonder how long it'll keep in the freezer?

If the Pentacon is anything like the Tessar, it'll come apart easily enough to get at the blades, but I definitely recommend not unscrewing the lenses from the focus threads. A pretty good find that. You'd probably get your money back on the case.

It came apart ok and I freed off the blades but I cannot get it back together and working as it should. Frustrating. The same shop had a Lowepro sling bag for 4.99. Anyone interested if its still there? Bad news on the film. Migjt have to stock up.

The radiator cover is on by the way.

We can only process digital photos currently. We can't deal with film or have the space to install the required equipment. It's quite a small shop.

Its started. In my usual Poundland and no more film.

Blimey I'd better get up there and clear them out as well! Did you ask if they had any out the back? Got my passport photos done at Max Spielman, didn't know they could do that but they were all set up for it, funny sizes and everything
