My screw mount and non-A series K-mount lenses except for the K200/2.5 and K135/2.5 which are riding in my user kit at the moment.

I love those Pentax bases! Where are those from?

A seller on eBay had them. I bought two for $19 each plus shipping. I should have purchased four. He sold out before I could reorder. There are a few newer Pentax logo retail stands on eBay now. Usually around $20-25 each.

Me too. First roll I put through my first SLR -- an ME Super -- was K64. I used to buy bricks of ten when I went inter-railing, carefully monitoring my film usage as the month went by. Film costs were a big part of the finances for one of those trips.

My shooter ME Super with SMC-M 50.1.7 and MEII winder.

The back lid looks a bit different from what I presume is standard ME Super. I have an ME Super and a MEII Winder myself tucked away somewhere. Both are defect.

Interesting thumb grip on the film door.

Good eye! The back is from a junk Super Program which I took apart to sell the parts on eBay. I discovered that the ME Super and Super Program backs are directly interchangeable. The winder came with the junk Super Program.

This one has been with me since 1992. Just came back from a CLA.

Thanks,

A few new items to show... First, a gift from gofour3, a black K2 that just needed the rings behind the lens mount cla'd. I was supposed to use it for parts, but a good working K2 metering system would be a shame to waste. Second item in a black MEF with winder and Data Back M I picked up on eBay...under $100 with shipping included. I've never seen a black MEF so I jumped on it.

Nice black ME-F. There is one on ebay with the 35-70 zoom but they want substantially more than that.

I'm not seeing it. Maybe not on US eBay? I'm only seeing black ME and ME Supers.

Nice...I used to have one...and a number of other Yashicamats (124, 12, 635) but sold them all. Wish I still had the G. Now I only have a Seagull TLR and a Rollei 3.5F that needs a cla.

Very nice, glad to see the old K2 back working again!

Thanks, Phil.
