Where from? I have family from Naples.

Update: I received the camera, and it looks great. I'll get some pictures up eventually. Mechanically it seems to be in good shape, just need to throw some film I bought in and get some pictures. I've spent enough time researching proper exposure techniques, that it's time to pop the cherry and get at it. The lens looks very clean too.

For $81 (after tax and shipping), I'm happy with the eBay find. It's not a $12 thrift shop find, but was hard pressed to find a decent one under $150.

I also found a 50mm M f/1.4 for a steal, and came in great shape from a real nice guy. Not much diversity in focal length, but I just wanted that 1.4.

Thanks again for all the welcomes. I'll hopefully get some pictures taken and developed. Excited.
