My New Toy

[Speed]

It's here! My newest toy. A K1000 with an 50mm f2.0 lens.

My father-in-law gave me an old camera that didn't work. It was a Pentax, and it had a 50mm f2 lens, an 80-200mm f4 lens, and a Vivitar SMS 30D flash. The camera was battery dependant for the shutter, so it wasn't what I wanted. Translation, it still doesn't work. But the rest of the gear was in pretty good shape.

I've wanted a fully manual, mechanical camera for long astro-photography shots and night landscape shots. So I found one on ebay, and the lovely wife bought it for me. I am so loved! :-)

The camera had one previous owner, and is in very good shape. Now if the weather will only clear up, I can get out and take some shots with it!
