Re: The REAL reason the Pentax K1000 rules!
I'm sorry. I have to admit, I was baiting people there! Not nice... K1000's are fine cameras. Were it not for the fact that I got a Spotmatic first, and have all screwmount lenses, I'm sure that's what I'd be using. regards, frank Mark Roberts wrote: > Plastic parts on a K1000? > Not on the early ones. > > (OK, now lets get the "early K1000" owners fighting with the "late K1000" > owners!) > -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds.

You could always look out for an old pre-set lens, where you get auto-DOF preview...:-) John Coyle Brisbane, Australia On Wednesday, October 24, 2001 4:18 AM, Skofteland, Christian [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] wrote: > I do!
