Originally posted by royden I say micro, you say macro. He sure nailed it. I gave mine to my daughter and will get a chance to use it in a few weeks when I get to Philly on my new K-5lls. Chuck, I think you have too many cameras.
You're right, and I also have too many lenses. It's the result of CBA and LBA, and I get a lot of enjoyment from it.
As I upgrade to a newer model I just can't seem to part with the one that it replaced. The ME super was my first SLR, purchased back in 1980. So it has some sentimental value. The K10D was my first digital SLR and one of my granddaughters is using that one right now taking lots of nice pictures of my two great granddaughters.
The Spotmatic F came with a couple of Takumar lenses (SMC 55/1.8 and SMC 135/3.5) all for $100, I just couldn't pass on the deal.
Now the K-01, I got that when one of my other granddaughters wanted one and they were so discounted at the time you could get two for what one cost when they first came out. I got her a yellow one, and I went with the black one.
And if that isn't enough, as I am writing this I am sitting here waiting for the UPS truck that is bringing me my early Christmas present to myself, a Silver Edition K-3 with matching grip and stylish leather wrist strap and an FA 43 f1.9 Ltd (silver of course). Thank you Black Friday!!! And on it goes.....
