This has been picked up from the New York Times, see the other thread.

I don't think I shot 1,580 slide films for myself in 28 years...

This is the third time this lens has been listed although he has dropped the opening price somewhat. Shame it doesn't come with it's original wooden tripod!

Well I got married and moved into a new flat so I guess 2010 was a pretty good year.

Photographically, it wasn't bad, but I am getting a bit bored with my best images that everyone else likes. Next year I'd really like to get a few more photos into print and plan to submit many more to magazines and competitions.

As to new kit, I was planning to get a K-5 but at the moment I am rather struck with my new FED2 and have been eyeing up various Russians LTM lenses...

I am a bit late discovering this as it was in The Independent last year and has been floating around on the net for a while, but this amazing find has me fascinated!

Chicago news item.

Blog.

Flickr discussion.

Book and film plans.

Enjoy.

If you really want to use one regularly, factor in the cost of a CLA by Harrow Technical or Asahi Photo. Harrow charge £66.50 for an MX service with six month warranty.

They are really nice little cameras although do not discount a KX which is just as functional but bigger and sturdier.

My Christmas gift was photographic but not Pentax. I was given a FED2 rangefinder with an Industar 5cm/f2.8 lens made in 1959--1963. I am just running a roll of film through it to test the shutter curtain but generally it is in lovely condition with a sweet brown leather case.
