Nice one. is that a Pentax tripod head too ?

No film SLR collection would be complete without the K1000.

I got this recently, in very good condition mechanically and cosmetically. Meter has gone west, but I have my trusty Seconic incident light meter.

Yes, I have one of these mini-tripods I use for this sort of thing.

It seems like the preset Takumars are fairly rare these days, compared to the Auto-/Super-Takumars.

Beautiful. You could send it to Eric for the meter . . . . .

Nice, black KM's are hard to find!

Ooh, black! Black K-anythings are hard to find. Used to own a black KX years ago. Would really like to own another. The only black Pentax I currently own is my LX.

I have one of these. It's a *little* wobbly fully extended with something heavy, but with a flash it's very useful.

I recently got this baby from a forum member (thanks Charles). It is in excellent condition and everything works. Just have to run a film through it and then complain about PENTAX auto-focus !

One of the cameras I truly regret selling is a nearly perfect copy of the ME-F with a working 35~70/2.8.

Very nice!

Looks practically unused. What a catch.
