Thank you.

Reach out to Mike at Phototronic in Topeka and let him know that David Hancock recommended him. He fixed a camera (a very complex Taron) for me that Mark could not. You can also find Mike at the YouTube channel FixOldCameras.

I received the K1000 today, though I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to use it before the weekend.

At this point, with as many hurdles as we've had, I'm certain no one will begrudge you an extra week or two with it.

I just got a chance to scan and edit the black and white photos I took when I had the traveling K1000. I thought I had taken more than one roll with it in black and white, but, I guess not. This is Ilford HP5+, Rodinal 1+50 for 11:00.

I finally got my scans back from my local camera shop. Here are a few that I like. I forgot how wide the highlight dynamic range in skies can be with film. This was Ektar 100.

Dude. Your second shot. I can't imagine anyone will top that with this camera.

Thanks. I've taken several shots like this with my iPhone and K5, so thought I'd try one. I'm happy with how it turned out.

Just checking to see how it's going with the K1000.

Sent today to g026r. pathdoc said they were too busy right now, so I went to the next person on the list.

It arrived safely today. Now I need to check what the weather will be like before I decide what to load it with.

Finished one roll & don't know if I'll get a chance to shoot another before my time is up. Scans coming once I get a chance to go through them.

Looks like the next person on the list is Rense

Some photos on Lucky SHD, all taken with the provided 50mm (edit: except #4, which was my Tamron 28/2.5). The third shot was on a #3 extension tube, if I remember correctly.


After shooting with it, I have to say that I prefer my K2.

That's definitely the SHD look -- mega contrast and 400 ISO grain with 100 ISO speed. Good shots and good use of the film's aesthetic.

I'd never shot it before this, hence my picking it out from the films in the box. The closest film that it reminds me of is a 100 speed discount film that one of the local shops used to sell. (Forget the name, but it had similar grain characteristics.)

Admittedly, I probably didn't help matters by developing it in Rodinal.
