Nice set. It is fun going back in time with a film camera. Now did you glance at the back of the camera after taking a picture ?

Hmm, no I don't think so but then I only picked up a DigitalSLR two and a half years ago (not counting using a mobile).
Never used a digital camera between mid / late eighties to Aug/Sept 2019, a long break but did like the capabilities of mobiles when they arrived. Glad I decided to return to this hobby as Covid then started, kept me going Yup I was one of the peeps who said "what do you need a DSLR for when mobiles are just as good"
PS Lens used was SMC M 28mm mainly at f8 and 125th sec.
Thanks guys for the comments.

The MX was treated to new light seals and mirror buffer, light oil lube (correct stuff) on the camera workings under the base plate.
Warning image heavy, lots of grain too. The shop digitised the photos but only to the minimum 4MB. As usual I have rushed these out, but the test of the MX was the objective and completed - thank you Lennybloke for a great camera.
