Open the back, press down on the hub of the counter with your thumb and rotate it past "1", keep it there, and close the back

I didn't realize Pentax had the equivalent to Minolta Celtic or Nikon series e lenses...
Is the K 3.5 better than the M version?

Why does the m42 version command more money? I thought the designs were the same

I'd leave it as is - looks damn cool

I meant with field/view camera roll film backs- you hit the interlock and advance a frame - you have to remember - "did I advance the film last time?"

Remembering if you had already exposed that sheet of film/frame yet or not - when in doubt, advance

Was this on digital or film?

So I've been playing around with it- contrast through the viewfinder seems a tad low compared to my Hasselblad 80- guess I'll see how the portraits come out

I was hoping to use this for handheld portraits with ISO400 and 800 Portra

The only lens I have for the 645 right now is a borrowed Hasselblad 80 Planar sitting on an adapter and I'm not focusing well enough on it
Also, the split screen is hard to find

Not a lot of discussion on this lens
It's more affordable than the 150 2.8 for me and I happen to like a little more compression for my portraits
How does it do in resolution and sharpness?
Ming Thein didn't like it on the 645Z but I'm using film
Thanks

Are late - non 8 element 50 1.4s okay on the green SV?

So, I want to play with some early Pentax goodness
I picked up an SV and a slightly too early 55 1.8 (S/N is on the low side)
Any other lenses from that era I should pick up?
Were there any internal improvements between the S2/S3/SV models?
Thanks

The MX is tiny, and I'd pick either the KX or KM over the K1000 (which is goes for the same price as the KX and KM on occasions)
