No longer theory! sbh contacted me by PM just a few days ago and said the camera has arrived.

**sbh** · 10-04-2016, 02:57 PM

Yes it's loaded and happily shooting!

It will be moving on next week.

Behind on processing. My son just finished 4 rounds of chemo and a major surgery, but thankfully my son is now cancer free. While I've posted from waiting rooms, some other things have fallen off.

Wonderful news Monochrome. Sounds like a very difficult time, but happy, happy news for a loved one to become cancer free.

So the K1000 is on its way to gorme and four rolls of film are sent to develop. It's such a nice camera and I'm sad that it's gone now. That shutter is massive! :

Focussing is not easy. I forgot how slow it is when shooting with film. Missed some shots because I didn't fwd to the next frame :/ Also blew some shots because I forgot to set ISO from 1600 to 200 for a new film. Meh.

Very nice images (love the low key one

). I have got a PANF 50ASA and an FP4 125ASA this week end and I will try to play a bit with that

Can't wait my turn!

**sbh** · 10-18-2016, 03:16 PM

Thanks gorme, I'm sure you'll have a good time playing with the camera.

By the time it arrives in SA it will have seen a lot of great places and subjects, kickman!

I still don´t understand what you guys mean with "SA", I´m from Costa Rica!! But, yes, I have planed a lot of subjects to shoot here in Cartago or San José, maybe landscapes, but I don´t have any wide angle manual lens.

I'm not sure but either Adam or I thought you were from somewhere else. I don't remember putting the SA behind your name (doesn't mean I didn't), but perhaps someone thought South America? Anyway, it's fixed now, and sorry about that.

If anyone else on the list wants to correct or clarify their location, PM me to be sure you get my attention!

Cheers!
