Filter factor calculations question in manual
4 stops from 1/250 is 1/15. 1 sec is 8 stops from 1/250th. Thanks! I see: 1/250 --> 1/125 --> 1/60 --> 1/30 --> 1/15 Makes sense, I must have had a complete brainlock ^_^;;

Filter factor calculations question in manual
Exactly. That's the advantage of my MX or LX. Four clicks of the shutter dial = four stops! Cheers, Kris.

What is the best Pentax 35mm film SLR?
I just had browse through some of his/her listings and feedback, it seems he/she likes to sell lenses in one auction and then lists the caps separately. :? Sadly that's one of the favorite tricks of UK dealers... someone trades a camera in they get a pittance of a price for it and no extra because i...

What is the best Pentax 35mm film SLR?
Sadly that's one of the favorite tricks of UK dealers... someone trades a camera in they get a pittance of a price for it and no extra because it's complete with case, UV filter, lens cap etc. Next the camera goes on sale at an enormous mark up and all the accessories are stripped and sold separatel...

A praise for the MX
Pentax MX, SMC Pentax 24mm f2.8 lens or SMC Pentax-M 20mm f4 lens, Kodak Tri-X, Red filter, Paterson FX39 developer and Agfa black and white paper. Happiness for many years!

How much do you want for the pieces of K55? It is all going back to the man who sent it to me, once his cheque clears of course! I am glad to say that most of the time things work out. The K series 135mm seems to be fine, and the SPII seems great too. BTW hefty, how do you attach a filter to th...

As for filters on the 43; the lens hood screws on to the filter thread (49mm). If you've got a filter with threads both sides you can sandwich it between lens and hood, if it's only got threads on the back (like most polarisers) then you have to use it hoodless, or get an oversized 3rd party hood th...

Slides to Digital.
Another 'Heath-Robinson' method I have used successfully was to place the slide on a light-box, then, using a cut-down toilet-roll set on top of the slide (you'll have to experiment here), I sat my Pentax M 50mm f1.7 lens with the outermost element and skylight filter facing upwards on top of the cu...

New Film Camera
I've just had a great buy from eBay, a good-as-new Pentax MZ-M with 35-80mm lens, pristine 1A filter and a free camera bag, all for a modest £12.50! It's actually a very nice little camera and I've got a couple of rolls of Velvia left, so I think I might have a go. The plastic lens mount is a ...

New Film Camera
£12.50 for a skylight filter isn’t exorbitant. It was kind of them to include an SLR camera, lens and bag as well! ;)

Pentax SF-7
I am not too sure if this is the correct place for this, but here goes. On my way home from walking the dog about 4 nights ago, I found this camera, it had been clearly dumped because it was on a recycling pile. Any way it looks in good condition although it didn't seem to work and I thought that...

Processing
I suspect that the type of kit that Jessops and others have for on the spot processing and printing is set up to interpolate the image it sees and make the best of it - ie if you put a B & W colour process film through where you have used no filter/yellow/orange/red/green for the same shot, you'd e...

i just got given a pentax p30T
The cable release and filters should be very simple. The P30t has a standard screw thread on the side of the lens mount for a cable release (or air release if you want to stand further away), so just have a rummage on ebay. You should be able to find one for a few pounds. You need to look at whic...

What did you use today?
I've said this before, but I find film to be an excuse to use the old bodies (which are so sweet-handling - an MX for example can't be bettered). I also find myself reaching for the Ilford HP5 if it's cloudy, as this makes the grey sky and muted colours irrelevant. I know I could use the black an...

Don`t you just love Ebay ?
Just before I went down to Sussex I spotted the enclosed at a start bid of 99p and as a bit of fun popped in a bid of £10. Lo and behold I won and this morning received a signed for delivery (£4.60) and the items for a winning bid of £6.70 - leather case,P50 in nice order ( film inside ! ) strap,co...

Don`t you just love Ebay ?
... and a Prinzflex 135 2.8 Auto MC with Hoya 55mm Skylight filter...Tony I found one of these at a photomart recently. I don't know how your's will work out, but my copy was rather soft with little contrast: OK in it's way, but nothing like a Takumar or a Zuiko. :(
