I have been looking at the Epson STYLUS PHOTO R1900, anyone had any experience with it :
I currently have an Epson Stylus Photo R390 for my A4 stuff and I'm very happy with that.

You do seem to pick up a lot of Tak stuff, I only ever seem to find M, F and FA gear as a general rule (not that I should be complaining as it's proving quite profitable). The one thing I'm keeping from the lot I picked up on Sunday is a mint/boxed Auto Bellows II - I've not tried them out yet but looking forward to having a proper play with them tomorrow.
The odd thing was that the bellows came with a Slide Copier in the box and the guy then had a second boxed Slide Copier (the one I'm selling on eBay). I didn't realise until I'd got home but now I can't figure why anyone would want two slide copiers?
Oh well, I won't be losing sleep over it and as for the cap, I'm sure that'll get pressed into service at some point.
I will be interested to see what you get for it, I have a mint, boxed Slide Copier K I got with my Bellows K sitting around (I don't have any slides) but i'm a little apprehensive about splitting up such a beautiful set. I would be very interested to see some of your bellows pics, so don't be shy You do seem to pick up a lot of Tak stuff, I only ever seem to find M, F and FA gear as a general rule (not that I should be complaining as it's proving quite profitable).

I am picking up a lot of old Tak gear lately and my lens collection is currently at 7 + 5 spotties. I need to buy a descent scanner now
I have been neglecting my K20 and DA lenses of late, for my DS with permanently attached Taks or a spotty and there is my MZ6

Just don't start calling us Steptoe and son Clarky definitely wins the award for jammy personage with his bargain buys, although hefty seems to come in a close 2nd...
I always have friends and family calling me up asking if I can find them various items at rock bottom prices.
Case in point, A friend needed a new fuel tank on his TT 350 dirt bike and asked me to locate one for him. I ended up snaring him a whole bike for the price of a new tank Oh and a carton of beer for me

Thanks Hefty for the kind offer but I have just acquired a bag full Takumar accessories which came with my recently purchased Takumar SMC 400mm 5.6 and it included 3 genuine 49mm caps and 1 rear cap, very pleased with that little find Also got a genuine reversing ring a set of extension tubes an M42 - K-mount adapter and a variable close up ring + a bunch of eyecups and cables.

No i'm sure it is not SDM compatible but maybe normal auto focus. I will give it a try.Clarky wrote:

I did'nt really want the TC, or the cameras for that matter, I just stumbled across it while browsing and only 1hr left to run. It was to good an oportunity to pass up.
I am planning to give it a go on my DA*300
It appears to be in excellent condition, but I haven't used it yet.
The 2 SMC lenses are also in very condition and I may keep them to use on my MZ6
If I don't come to grips with it and decide to sell, I will give you first refusal on it.

Hefty, I thought you just recently auctioned that MZ5n and the FA 28-70 f/4 lens. Is this another one you have :
