Hello from Pittsburgh, PA

Pentax 6x7 Film cameras, 2, and lots of lenses were collected. Now I'd like to start again. Included in my collection is a weird 35mm set of adapters in one of the cameras, and a 600mm kit. My local art canter closed their wet darkroom but I built one in my basement. Film is in the frig, B&W. The old scanner is hooked up to the new iMac. I have to find my negs & transparencies shot the first time around somewhere in a lot of boxes. A battery still works. It's hard to get started. I'm currently attending a DSLR class at the Center for the Arts. When it is over, for sure I'll load one of the cameras, the 120 one. What I'd really like to do is to bring in a 6x7 to class and show off!

Welcome aboard!
You should bring the 6X7 to the class for show and tell. I'm sure most will never have seen a big beastie like that!
