I was experimenting tonight with a "mini studio" with 2 flashes and the D. The background, angles and the lighting needs sorting but I thought I would share these.

A Tower 24 which is the US badged version of the Ashiflex IIB. This is maybe the rarest of the Flex's as it has been built using a IIA body shell.

Another rarity, the second Pentax which replaced the original Asahi Pentax. The speeds were changed to be more arithmetical and are the same as used today.

The S was soon replaced by the K which was the first Pentax with the push plate for stopping down the lens. The lens is the rarer 1.8 version and the only Pentax lens with this colouring.

A near pristine S1, I managed to acquire this one complete with both the inner and outer original box.
