Is anybody doing colour processing here?
I have two colour analysers I have acquired and they need homes to go to, where they will be used hopefully. I understand they both work ok but I have not been able to try them myself.
1. Melco MkII Linearised colour analyser, instruction book.
2. Philips PCA-061 colour analyser, boxed with instructions.
Each can be acquired for the cost of postage, or pick it up from West Berkshire.

Same price at SRS, but postage to be added at Clifton.

what can you do to mitigate it if they do get damp.
Wash if it had salt or other contaminants, being careful not to pour water in the body opening! Dry off the outside as best as possible, a gentle blow with warm air (hair dryer)is a good way after a towelling . Then if you think there may have been any water getting inside, put it in a sealed box with a large silica gel bag for some time when you get home.
Having said that, the sealed lenses seem good. I happily take them out in the rain, just drying off the outside and not changing the lens while wet.

I'm well pleased, Thanks.

Seriously, Lot of nice Pentax glass, various good Pentacon lenses, Russian offerings can be cheap and good. With an M42 mount there are so many!
There is a Takumar 85mm on ebay now for a BIN price of £339.82 or a Russian Helios 58mm running at £17.99 with 5 mins to go.
Try sticking m42 in the search on ebay and see what comes up!

Looks like an interesting read.
