Most mechanical Pentax's from the Spotmatic on could be tricked into "mirror
lockup". To master it, cock the shutter and lightly and quickly tap the
shutter release button. If you here a click, the mirror swung up. Check it
in the finder and if blacked out, press the shutter release again and the
shutter will fire.
It works on my Spotmatics, K1000, and MX.
How about the "All Blacks" the knocked over the Spring-Box and Trail the
Wallabies in the Tri_Nations. For once, I would wear my All Blacks jumper
for one week if the defeated Australia in the final.
