I am in New Orleans for the weekend. Last night I was in the French Quarter. They had a Mardi Gras parade along Decatur. Very political. Very interesting, to say the least.
Anyhow, I decided to shoot it since I was able to get to fairly close to the action. It was raining. I had been shooting earlier with an LX. I had dropped it off at the car earlier and decided to use the MZ-S in case I wanted to use the AF but mostly for the small flash available on the camera. I shot off two rolls of slides using the FA* 24/2. I kept the camera close to my body when I was not shooting, but for the most part the camera was out in the elements. Once I had shot those off I wiped off the lens and camera. I checked both for proper operation today. No problems. I know that the MZ-S is not sealed like the LX, but I do have to say that I have had it out in the rain a few times and it has yet to let me down. No big reason for this post, just putting in my few Pentax words on the list, C�sar Panama City, Florida P.S. Afraid to see how many posts there are to the list when I send this.
