My 3 silver pentax bodies. All going off to Eric for servicing.
Quite the trio! I hope they give you long years of service.

Proving that the strangest things sometimes show up at my usual haunts:



The chrome finish, lack of red T, smallest aperture of f11, and serial below 3,000,000 suggested it was a pre-war copy rather than a post-war East German version, and a check of serial number tables confirmed a manufacture date of 1937.

Many camera bodies enter and leave my hands, but the one that never goes away is the Super A. Taking it out yesterday in the sun with a roll of Fujicolor 100 was as much of a pleasure as ever.

Cool, yours still has the cover for the flash ports. First time I've ever seen one.

My 645, took this photo using up the last sheet of delta 4x5 so I could develop. Flash picked up every spot of dust on the camera!

:P an air bulb and photoshop helps ;p

(my general approach in regards to photoshoping dust off is, if it can be blown off, it's safe to clone off in photoshop, otherwise leave it be if it's the way it would be if you shipped it to someone)

Owners of black cars know that black shows up everything.

I would hope if someone is trying to sell me a camera they'll at least knock the dust off.

Ha, I'm not selling that camera any time soon, no need to dust too hard, that was just target practice for my 4x5.
