Hi Will,

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately the lens in question (being K series) is far too old to feature in the current price list.

Maybe it would be possible to run something in a future edition of Pentax User on some of the older optics, rather than the older cameras? Just a thought.

Steve

Derek,

Thanks for the reply, Bojidar Dimitrov's site is certainley a wealth of information. The Pentax Digest was interesting but not quite as informative.

Thanks John, I have managed to obtain dedicated hoods for all my 'M' and 'K' series lenses with the exception of this one - it would be nice to know if I am on a wild goose chase!!

Amongst the lenses I have managed to collect over the years for my manual focus 35mm system, I have a K series 45 - 125 mm zoom. When I bought the lens it didn't have a lens hood, does anyone know if Pentax made a specific lens hood for this zoom?

Hats off to you Gordon - something I always keep meaning to do and yet somehow never get round to!. Pictues are great too.
Regards

I do agree with John that this will only work with enough people ( I have also bee involved in running camera clubs and well know the frustration of too few members!). Would it be worth setting up the topic area on the discussion board to focus on this? and maybe a short plug in the next edition of Pentax User.

I have been a member of the Pentax Club longer than I care to remember, I joined in 1979 when I purchased my first Pentax SLR (an MX). In all that time I cannot recall ever seeing any of the the local groups appearing this far North (and I am only in Derby!) So are there any club members near me? and if so is there any interest in forming a local group in this area?

Please post your replies on this board - you never know it may encourage others.

How would you all like to take this forward? Arrange an actual face to face meeting to try and kick things off or set up a virtual meeting area on the web to start with? (Will - are there any plans for local groups to have pages hosted on this site or would we need to set up something separate?)

The Wein cell you need is the MRB400, which is the replacement battery for Spotmatic, Spotmatic 11 / 11A, SP500 and SP1000.

Rather than exhaustive tests comparing films (which as you have both mentioned can be found in numerous mags) it would be nice to see individual films put through their paces, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of individual emulsions. I am sure that I am not alone in finding the repetitive pictures of test cards / models etc a waste of space.
