Can you remember which lens?

One of our venerable pros (Don from Winnipeg) has entrusted his Super A (Super Program over here) to me, and it is a wonderful camera. Look over Kim's manual a few times and you'll love it.
I've just shot a wedding down in Durham North Carolina with it and the results are spectacular. I use my best M42 screw mount primes and an adapter on it in manual mode, and the Auto setting handles the related shutter speed settings perfectly.
Using Pentax TTL flashes is also bullet-proof. (AF280T and AF200SA)
This little gem fits my hands and is a joy to use.
Enjoy!

I still have a CS body with that lens. Just can't seem to part with it.

Looks like it came with the 1:7 lens (a gem) vs the more standard 1:8.
In my humble humble, you've got a great little package there.
Enjoy.

Like everyone else, I blast away with both digital, and colour film of every description.
Being on a lake with mirror images simply doubles the fun.
But, over the years, I've also taken the odd B&W shot of the same scenery (on film).
Guess what winds up on my wall?
Rather than being depressing, I find that the B&W allows one to "see" the trees and water in a way that we can't by simply looking.
I also have many winter shots on colour film where there is no colour to be seen and wish that B&W film had been used as it intensifies the mood.
I'd like to get into InfraRed which seems to add even more excitement
to summer scenes.
Bottom line, I love the impact of B&W.
(And yes, I'm old).
Cheers!
