yeah, there is clearly a worldwide surplus of K-1000 bodies, usually 
with a 50/something attached; not just eBay, but craigslist, assorted

We still use K1000s because most of our students want to take a film
photography class.  At least those are the ones that fill up first.
They also have my old MX and ZX-7 ;-)

They still use film at Ryerson, which is why Downtown Camera still has

used to be HP5+ and before that it was APX400)

I thought so. I really enjoyed doing the dark room class in Richmond
Hill, but enrollment dropped out of sight in 2005 so they dropped it.
It was easier to sign up every semester and use their equipment, than
trying to set up in my bathroom.
