Bit of a brick the K1000, nice it's all mechanical but not sure why they're so popular. I prefer a split circle too but I do find I obsess over perfect focus, I do that less without it. Interesting neither of you are liking the Nikons. Not done much myself, am with you on the lack of inspiration Howard. Still about half way through film no.1 in the Seagull TLR! Not shot much with anything. Was in the Peaks on Sunday but we took so much food that there wasn't much space for a big beast like that. Weather has been a bit unpredictable so we took some layers, all adds to the snail-like pack. Shame as I could have used it.
