Back to basics
After a few years of going nowhere with a computing degree, this year I've started doing a Bachelor of Arts with a photojournalism unit. And fortunately there's just enough room in the top pocket of my Slingshot 200AW for a 30 year old Cosina SLR with a slightly dented Cosinon 50/1.8 (and a Haminex 28/2.8 in the main section)...
*istDL/Sigma 18-125@88mm, 1/100s, f5.6, 200 ISO, AF540FGZ flash with home made bounce/diffuser, highlights blown in Photoshop  Richard (never complaining about slow autofocus or inaccurate auto exposure again) And there is a Pentax link to this post... the Cosina picked up a Pentax neck strap somewhere along the line.

Yea, that was my primary motive. To spare the cost/hassle of film. the most annoying thing is the crippled Kaf mount.

Yeah. Oh. Yeah.
That roll of tape - branded STYLUS - does that mean Olympus is in the gaffer's tape market? That is one wicked looking Cosina. |
