Hello everyone,
I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself to the forum. I recently became the proud owner of my late father's Pentax K1000 when my mother gave me his favorite camera bag and the K1000 was sitting inside of it. An acquaintance on another forum directed me here to find out more information about it.
Otherwise, in my mundane life, I'm a small business owner. I am now helping local and some not so local film companies ensure integrity in their crime scenes, blood spatter, and things that make others go ick.
