Hi all, Yep another new guy from the Chicago area. Just getting started with my film slr. Dont know very much about it, but I think I'll learn a lot here. I have a DSLR, not pentax though

. The Pentax equipment I have, I got from my grandfather and I'm excited to learn how to use it.

Pentax ME chrome body

Pentax SMC M 28mm 3.5

Pentax SMC 50mm 1.2 yeah, I'm sure its a 1.2, I've heard great things about this lens.

Tamron Adaptall2 80-210mm 3.8

2X Tele Converter

Sun Pak Auto322 Flash

Shutter release cable w/lock

A few UV Filters and a adapter ring of some kind, maybe to fit other lenses.. dont know what its for, lol

Looking foreward to getting used to the Pentax. I have a question about the viewfinder, so I'm gonna shoot (pun intended) over to the correct forum.
