The chap I bought it from, was selling it for his father in law and had run a film through. The pictures looked really good. I will be getting a film in it in the next few days for sure.
I need to find a couple of 46mm lens caps now, unfortunately both lost and the ever-ready case needs repairing along the bottom hinge. Anybody have any ideas of the best way to repair a leather camera case?
In the past I have used leather cut from a ladies handbag, good for carrying out repairs to various leather items, the leather is usually very supple.The chap I bought it from, was selling it for his father in law and had run a film through.

Warning make sure the handbag is truly discarded by the lady owner first. You have been warned.
Take care.

I think the reason for people on the site not entering most of the competitions, is nothing to do with the competition theme, but the difficult/complex method in uploading images to this site.bforbes wrote:

It's just a competition theme Barrie! Nothing too deep about it but I wanted to see shots taken with older manual focus lenses which demonstrate skill in manually focussing which can't be demonstrated with auto-focussing! I like to see manual focussing used creatively.But what difference is manual focus meant to make to the image. If it's in focus it's in focus

I am also a member of the (Disabled Photographers Society), uploading an image to that site is easy, in fact it is that easy, I can do it.
So why can’t all sites make uploading images easy, this, Pentax User, site is not the only difficult one.
David, I see nothing wrong with your theme.
Take care.

I have also noted this for a couple of weeks or so.
The first omission of Pentax being the 21st April issue.
I thought at first it was just a change of their advertising space, just giving other brands an airing, but looking back at previous issues, they managed to include all brands in the same space, so it does look as if Pentax, is being dropped.

Great to hear HG - fantastic race and Happy Birthday Sir Frank - well done Lewis.............any other driver would have been docked to 10th on the grid !! Which as Eddie Jordan said would have been fair.
I see Schuey is now blaming everyone else again - time for a new driver in the Mercedes team as well as Ferarri.
And a Lotus on the podium just puts icing on my cake
Tony
Very good race though.
Well deserved congratulations to Williams, the team that has given a start to many new F1 drivers on their road to success.
Take care.
