For editing/cutting out etc Photoshop Elements, or Pixelmator (Mac OSX) are excellent and complement LR well. Full Photoshop can be very daunting for new users!

A pair of S1a cameras - both need servicing, and have shutter/mirror issues.
Lenses seem fair for their age.
Both meters work and have batteries. The textured finish one (with a slight ding to the light sensor ring) works well, while the other smooth finish one appears to have a dirty mode switch and is a little intermittent.
One good condition ever-ready Pentax case (not pictured).

The battery holder has fractured in the Auto 110 (common issue!) but the metering still functions, and all seems ok... though I've not used film in it.
Flash works fine - having cleaned the battery contacts.
Both lenses seem fine.

Just tried the same action on a K10D here. No real difference between SR-On and SR-Off. I suspect SR has been disabled in Bulb mode. I can hear the magnets energised, making a very quiet purring noise - presumably as it keeps the sensor centred.
Do check what firmware version you have (I have v1.30).
Hold MENU down while powering up
