I didn't want the premium kit! I have no use for a grip. It was a prize draw, so nothing more than dumb luck.

Thanks to SRS Microsystems for supplying my prize from the Pentax Forums Prize Draw. And thanks to Pentax Forums and Adam for arranging it. Before anyone asks, I haven't even had a chance to take it out of the box yet.

Lovely. The second one (distant track) is my favourite.

I haven't been there since my undergraduate days, too long ago.

A week or two back AP, in their column looking at old issues of the magazine, noted that a Spotmatic, in today's money, would be over £2000.

Getting the new ones in wasn't too bad. The channel is quite tight but use a blunt object to push the new seal in. Some people use a type of yarn which also works very well and stays in by friction.

Good to know cardiffgareth. Have you fitted them yourself and was it an easy task?
It is pretty easy especially if you aren't cack-handed like me. Biggest job is getting the sticky goo out of the channels around the door in the first place. It takes me ages and a lot of cocktail sticks.

Mine is really stiff. One day I'll send it off for a service. K.

I've used his kits in the past and they are great.

Love that approach Kris - subtle, almost dreary colours, but they work so well with the nicely done composition
I cannot take any credit for the colours. Lomochrome Purple is weird stuff and some of the images work, some just look, well, weird!

A different take on this view. Lomochrome purple, Pentax ME Super, SMC Pentax 30mm f/2.8 lens.
