Hurray! I finally got it!

I'm having an exciting day today! I finally replaced my old dead FED 2... with a NKVD-FED 1, and 50/3.5.

First roll is in it now. No problems with loading (I could even get used to this, provided I have somewhere to sit down while I do it! 😉 )

Can't wait to get some results.

😀 😀 😀

Good job. Be sure to let us see some picks in the thread when you get them.

Edit: Is it true it is easier to load a bottom loader if you stand on your head? 😀 :bang:

Luckily, Simon is already down-under, so he's in the right attitude! 😛

Oh no! What happened to your "dead" FED 2? Perhaps a nice slap on the butt (camera repair) will liven up its day.

Upside down, upside down...

The ol' FED 2 went bungee jumping one day, and didn't have a rope (yes, got knocked off a cafe table). :bang:

Hasn't been the same since! Looks nice though. Thankfully this replacement looks like even more fun to use! 😀
