The more professional labs will happily push or pull film development. Like everything else, there will be a cost.

If you lift the ISO dial you can then rotate it to set the appropriate value, 200 in the case of a 200ISO film.

The Auto setting means that the camera sets a shutter speed that is appropriate to the aperture value that you have set on the lens. A wide aperture (say f2, f2. will mean a higher shutter speed than a small aperture (say f8, 11, 16...) which will result in a longer shutter speed.

L is Lock and prevents the shutter release being depressed in a case or bag and the battery being run down.

100X is the speed to set when using electronic flash.

B is for very long exposures - the shutter will remain open as long as the button is depressed.

Hope that helps! You need a book on Photography now...

If you use A series or later lenses there is no problem.

Some users seem to have had problems with metering accuracy with K and M lenses woth the K10D.

The kit lens is the best of all the kit lenses from any manufacturer, much better than its price suggests.

I was very happy with mine, Sue is still very happy with hers and I only changed because I wanted the slightly wider angle of the 16-45mm.

Don't forget that the K100D is 6.1MP and the K10D is 10.2MP. There is more detail in very large images with the K10D but the K100D does offer lower noise if low-light photography is your style.

The K10D offers longer battery life between charges, but not in the same league as ME Supers where you change the batteries once a year!

As you may well want to grow back into photography, I'd be inclined to suggest going for the more expensive K10D. Otherwise you might want to upgrade in a year's time, which would be more expensive in the long run.

There is a lovely quality in these images, serene and timeless.

My own SMC Pentax-M 135mm f3.5 went for £45, although it was absolutely mint to be fair, but perhaps there's something about 135mm lenses at the moment.

If they are the "flavour of the month" maybe it's time to dust them off and get them on eBay.

I can't believe what I've just seen on eBay.

Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm screw thread lens (East German), with fungus inside and the aperture non-operational, is currently going for £39.

£39??? Why???

Just a thought, the Fuji as a collection might be of more interest to a Fuji collector/user as Fuji lenses are relatively rare. If you sold that kit you could obtain some more Pentax lenses and end up with a better quality kit.

If the Fuji body fails then replacing it with another good one could be more difficult than having the pentax repaired/replaced if you ever needed to.

The advantage of eBay is that you can sell to the whole world and for a mint camera there will be many purchasers far and wide.

You can also advertise it here in the Classifieds section of the forum. A picture and a detailed description of what is included would help.

As for price, then a copy of Amateur Photographer will give you lots of adverts indicating dealer prices and your price for a private sale should be somewhat lower. eBay will also give a good idea of price levels.

Good luck with the sale.
