In 1972 I was 14. I worked in a drugstore and saved for quite a while
to buy that SP500. At the time, it was by far the nicest thing that I
owned. I had a little darkroom set up in my basement and went through a
LOT of Tri-X.
The funny part is I got a new battery for it a few years ago so my
daughter could use it in a photography class. I shot a roll of some
flowers just to be sure it still worked. The pictures were marvelous.
It's hard to improve on certain designs.
You bet!
I'd venture 90% of one's photography occurs at or below 1/500th of a
second. Other than that, it's an SP1000...
