Well, after repeated looks, mine is definitely orange. I tried to tell myself it might be red, but its simply orange.

Hope you don't me joining the H2 party?

I came across this little beauty today and although I usually stay clear of anything pre K mount it is such a thing of beauty I walked out the shop with it

it also had an Auto Takumar 35mm f3.5 with it

What a nice find! Looks really good. And early serial number. Hope you will put it to use and not only keep it on the shelf.

Excellent Lenny, looks just about perfect! I can see why it was irresistible. Ditto about the shelf. I finally exercised mine the other night loaded with some expired TMZ, it worked like new. There's something about using a pristine piece of photo gear that's as old as I am, working perfectly and getting satisfying results.

Cheers,
Allan

No, I have to many cameras, but I try to use each camera once per year but that is hard.
