Great shot of a real classic, must go all the way back to the 1970s or early 1980s.

People will take photos. (FA 77) It was a good day for it.

In my efforts to demonstrate the impracticality of using the FA31 with short extension tubes I inadvertently came across a situation where it worked:

Pentax K5IIs - SMCP-FA 31mm f/1.8 ASPH Limited 1/500th f/4 ISO 80 + 11mm extension tube.

Suffice to say I wouldn't want to attempt this on the K-1. Crop cameras do very well at macro work where having enough DoF is always an issue.

Is that a parking ticket on the window?

No, it's the receipt to show that one has paid for parking (though usually displayed inside the windshield--I think the owner must be from outside Toronto).
