Heheh my wife has about a dozen of these, inherited from a great aunt or something. They are quite elderly I believe. Hang on a minute ... you're an archaeologist! You tell me!
They aren't Roman.

Do you think we can make thread longer than the ipad one? Much more interesting....

This time around was nothing to do with SDM and all to do with my incompetence.

What I want to know is why you have so many paperweights...

Well I think it is terrible Pentax should do better than that or have I been buying the wrong cameras for 35 years.

Wiki strikes again.

The Av value is the aperture expressed according to the APEX system of calculating exposure.

AV 0 = f/1.0
AV 1 = f/1.4
(...)
AV 5 = f/5.6
AV 6 = f/8
etc.


I cannot say I understand all the maths, but at least we have an answer. Of sorts.

Hmm makes me sorry I asked now
Don't be! It seems very odd but there must be an explanation out there somewhere...

When I was digging near Newton Abbot I used to drink the cider. Two pints was pretty much my lot.

Given Pentax's relatively limited line-up (in the sense of the number of models available) that is a very good result I think.

Theakston's Old Peculiar is very much still available and to my mind is one of the few beers as good from the bottle as it is from the barrel.
My favourite when I was a student!
