I'm now a Pentaxian!
I just purchased a pristine ES with attached Takumar SMC 50mm 1.4. (I already own a super-multi-coated 135/3.5 (which is a lovely lens) and a Supter-Takumar 200/4 - both of which I have been using on my Canon 40d).
I am new to Pentax and new to film in general. I try to do my research so as not to ask the same silly questions... but perhaps you will help me with a few
what's best issues:
For my ES I am leaning toward the L28 battery (lithium) - is there reasonable consensus that this is best?
What are the top 5 preferred ISO 100 non-slide color films?
Same question as above for ISO 400
Is MPIX considered the best online company for processing 35mm color?
Thank you for your early indulgence. Hopefully I will be able to upload some samples soon! I will be thrilled to shoot this classic!
