I also had a 'Pentax Moment' last weekend. I went to the opening of a photo exhibition by landscape photographer Richard Green. During the presentation he showed a few slides of his early cameras and there was one of the early M42 Pentaxes - probably an SV or S1a, with pentaprism meter. Green is an interesting character. He's an ex Pom (actually, can you be an 'ex' Pom?) and flies his own helicopter to remote areas of Australia to produce large scale panoramas. He no longer uses Pentax. There are several Richard Green photographers. This is him: http://www.richardgreen.net.au/ Cheers Brian ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ -- -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Send your email first class -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
