Re: A new poll: Your first pentax?

Mine was a K-1000 I bought in a pawn shop outside of Helena, Montana. I 
was on a motorcycle trip and the shutter jammed on the one I was 
carrying (right at Yellowstone Falls). We were headed for Glacier NP and 
I needed a camera bad. The pawnshop had a K-1000 with a bag, a 50mm A 
2.0 lens, a generic 135mm and a generic zoom. I bought the instant kit 
and finished my vacation with it. I got some awesome pictures out of 
that old warhorse.

The 50mm lens is way underrated as a landscape lens IMO.
