You have to assemble it with the motor drive installed too? Just saw a pic of one but with the data back and it looks good.

Looks like a black cat waiting to get outside!

Very nice.

That is one sweet Super A set! I have the 100,000 mile version with scars to prove, love shooting with it.

Yes probably this weekend she'll be on the prowl again, during the last one she catched some jaguars:

Some pony mustangs:

Some Mods:

Some sheep:

And some humans:

I was thinking the same thing and it was the motordrive A that caught my eye.

Just messing around a bit and snapped these. . .

I'm looking for one of these too, possibly branded Sears because the no logo pentaprism looks badass.

Like the one in the background?

That's an awesome kit ! I use it often and it's almost perfect.

I'm desperatly looking for a "A Cord" to have the battery from the grip deported because, well, you'll need some serious arm muscle to keep this lifted

Indeed, it reminds me the Canon F1N AE they used in Raimi's first Spiderman: they had removed the logo from the prism and I liked it.

I would also like to get as Sears branded Rikenon f1.4 but they hard to procure, it appears they are good lenses but IMO Ricoh and Chinon are unfortunate sounding brands.

I learned photography on a KS-2 and will always have a soft spot in my heart for it. As for looking "badass". . . I dunno, but I'm sure it's better than having SEARS on it in bold letters!
