Sounds like a fine kit, as the Pentax KM is a solid quality camera upscale of its well-known K1000 sibling. And that 50/1.7 is one of Pentax's best 50's... Have fun. 🙂

A Leica CL, super deal on Ebay. Could not resist. Smallest camera for my ZM lenses and I was wondering for ages how it is...

A catalytic converter and tires. Now that would have bought a good used Summicron 50mm lens ... ;-)

Jeeb... my camera shop has a G1 for €150. Might try it. I just bought a Red button soft release for my Leica M8 today.
Been thin for me on the buying front... just a M to X adapter for $25.90.

I'm having an... interesting, not to mention expensive week. While working through a nasty cold and high fever, I found a nice medium format camera on a Dutch second hand site.
Someone was selling a Bronica ETRS with waist level finder, 120 back and EII 75mm 2.8 lens for a fair price. Because of the rising price of 35mm here - just as expensive if not more so then roll film - I figured I might as well give 120 a go. I'm hoping to get the camera tomorrow and I just recieved 5 rolls of Velvia 100 RVP.

I was in a testing mood and ordered three b&w films just as test rolls: They should be in the mail next week.
Ilford PAN F 50
Never shot this slow film but in sommer it should give good results.
My fastest film was Ilford HP5+ shot @1600 until now. I will give take some available light images @3200 and compare the results against the HP5+ I already know.
Will try an Ilford DELTA 3200 and a Kodak T-MAX 3200.
Your advices are welcome!

Ive had both PanF and 3200 shot an processed at a lab and it was good! PanF is very contrasty. The TMAX is pretty low contrast but sharp! Ritz made 8x10s from 35mm tmax3200 and they l
