Welcome to the forum Greg.

Get posting some pics and don't rush into the filters.

I have some I rarely use, finding the standard lens good enough without!

I find B&W conversions rarely work in my opinion.

This one does, very well.

The strong geometric shapes and high contrast suit the technique well.

Er, it say's Sigma 150-500mm!

2 and 3 for me, love the wings and full beak.

Ignore John and Tel, this often happens.

Welcome and enjoy.

Oops!

Should read incidentally, as for lube, DON'T.

just make sure everything is clean and dry, any oils, even watch makers oil, can stop shafts rotating!

I did it on a Spotmatic and spent Hours trying to clean it out

This is going to stop a lot of people advertising, what's the point in a free listing if you can't cover postage costs?

I'll happily sell for 99p if I can charge relevant postage, but not being able means that at 99p some things cost more than that to post (ink refills for example!) so the only answer is to put it all on the start price and cover costs that way.

Hardly 'free' postage!

Now there's someone selling old magazine adverts!

It's getting annoying....

I've just noticed that camera Handbooks have to be advertised with FREE postage!!!

What the f....!

For an on line service manual see this link

The S3 one covers your model, and the password is 'Pentax'.

These manuals are freely available, but some jokers cut them onto CD and sell them on ebay. Don't buy of ebay, download and print it out, although it's a large document at 54 pages it's worth doing.

I did it for my MX and Spotmatic and they're very useful.

Incipiently I got 3 Spotmatic sp500s as spares or repair, 2 work fine, the third doesn't focus to infinity. Try playing with the bodies first, they might just need a clean if your lucky.

..and we wonder why the shops are staffed by McDonut rejects?
