Vintage film cameras

I know what you mean, I think the reasons for being open are very thin but unless the council comes round they will stay open. I've never done a shutter before, it doesn't look too bad, I just can't cut straight to save my life. I may as well give it a , otherwise it will just be a shelf queen which seems a shame as they are so uncommon in the UK.

Looks like your K1000 is doing very well JR.

I know, I was a bit surprised too! It's all packed ready to send. I priced fro Royal Mail I think but I'm going to maybe use UPS

[Kenzie]

I sent one of my sales Royal Mail special delivery as it was over £100.

Seriously???

Holy cow! When it went over 100 I thought, there's lots of interest, that usually adds 40-50%, but that would be a lot. Told you the sold prices were all over the place, i did see one at around 170 and I thought, yeah, that'd be nice, about as much chance of that as me bedding Jessica Alba.

You can get yourself something better. Anything on your radar?

[johnnyrod]

No, I've got the Super A, MX and K2, 50mm f1.2 lens, and decent enough other lenses. I'm trying not to buy anything, and to turn around the ones I bought that need servicing. I meant to ask, did you look at the Youtube video I did for the K1000? What did you think? I've done slightly longer ones for the Contessamat and Durst Automatica that are listed as they're a bit more of a mystery, especially the Durst.

I don't have a 1.2 lens in the collection, the prices they command will probably mean I will never have one. I only got my 1.4s cheap as they were repair jobs and the Pentax 1.4 came with a Centon K100.
