Very nice images Nigel now if I had the spare cash I'd buy that lens

Was on holiday on that date. Not been inside Durham Cathedral since school days and always mean to return.

Saw a man in Keswick today who was wearing an instantly recognisable standard issue Pentax camera strap. I was so surprised I missed a step as I came out of a shop and he reached out to steady me. I told him I was surprised to see another Pentax user out in the wild and he said yes we are a rare breed. Didn't get his name but the camera was a K-3 so if you're reading this you know who you are.

In remarkably good condition John, I wonder what creatures call it home now

Hey guys -

Been wanting to try film - and I figure I might as well go medium format - anyone got something sitting around gathering dust? Ideally something like a Bronica 6x6 with a 75mm 2.8 or something similar, i'm reasonably open to offers - nothing that requires actual repair/spare parts though!

Will head to ebay if I have to, but thought i'd offer up here first. Please PM me!

Cheers,

Callum

Not sure if these people do mail order but seem ed to have some of the cameras you are looking for. May be worth a call ? robertsons of gosforth

The real problem is that you are using a camera that dates back to the 1980s, so it's quite old now. I would expect any camera of that vintage to benefit from a general service and recalibration. Different models will tend to fail in different areas, so that too is probably predictable.

The LX was the professional camera in its day and if in good condition should be fine.

You could also use your lens on the DSLR range, so that's another avenue should you wish it.

Just as an aside John, how is the old camera in the garden bearing up?
