Re: MV

I bought the MV with the 40 f2.8 for $100 in San Francisco in 1981. If was a small, light camera that performed well for many years, until the advance clutch broke in 2000. Steven Desjardins Department of Chemistry Washington and Lee University Lexington, VA 24450 (540) 458-8873 FAX: (540) 458

Re: MV

Is the Pentax MV any good? Just curious...-- People may tell you otherwise, as it's a totally uncool camera by pro wannabee standards. I love my MV. It's very light, meters well, is unobstrusive and fits all my Pentax lenses. You basically don't set anything on it except the manual focus, so

Re: MV

It's essentially a stripped down ME, as such it's as good as an ME. I've been happy with the one I have for it's purposes. At 09:47 PM 2/24/2003 -0800, you wrote: Is the Pentax MV any good? Just curious... Thanks __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax

I've had a few offers trickle in overnight. It's gone to an Old Pentax Bodies Retirement Home in Dave Letterman's home town. It'll be with others of his kind. It should be happy now... regards, frank frank theriault wrote: Shutter won't fire. Meter lights still come on, but the film

Re: Rewind knob for MV

Frank, Ya, I watched that auction for a while but didn't end up bidding. Didn't it have some lens or winder with it? I figured it should be an easy fix. I just replaced the rewind knob on a Super Program and it was really simple. Just get the axle past the retaining clip and screw on the

Re: Rewind knob for MV

figured that for $20, the MV was worth it for the lens alone. If the body worked: bonus! The buyer said he didn't know if the body worked, because he didn't have batteries for it. As it turns out, the body seems fine - except the rewind knob. At $20, it wasn't much of a gamble, but I think I came

MV batteries

Hi, Just got an MV today that I bought on eBay. It has no batteries in it - which is why it was so cheap ($20 with an m 2.0 50mm). As I said before, I really got it for the lens, to put on my new MX. The MV body is a bonus. Anyone out there know which batteries go into it? thanks, frank

Re: MV batteries

Same as the ME I'd guess, as the MV is basically a striped down version of the ME. At one time I owned an MG, which I believe is the model in between the MV and ME and it was a pretty decent little camera. John - Original Message - From: frank theriault [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL

Re: MV batteries

I have been using a single CR-1/3N 3 volt lithium battery to replace two of the other batteries you mentioned and I get a lot better service out of it. It is also usually cheaper than the two it replaces. I use them in the ME Supers and ME that I have. On Monday 11 February 2002 10:00 pm,
