I'm back in the K1000 fold

EdwardNeary · 06-29-2013, 04:14 PM

Picked this one up for $20 at a junk store, probably my fifth in the last 20 years, and I've decided I'm NOT giving this one to another beginner. The door foam looks good, the 50mm 2.0 is mold-free, and the meter is spot on.

Er'body have a good weekend!

Welcome to the Forums. I have been tempted to donate my K-1000 to a beginner a few times. I just couldn't let it go.
