I was quite nervous about getting my Pentax 67 new rather than used,
because I knew any scratches, marks or brassing could not be passed off
as the fault of the previous owner. Well, I kept it pristine for
something like two months...then I put a small scratch on the finder
housing and a bit of brassing at the bottom of the door on the same
day...what a relief! Suddenly I could treat it like a normal camera and
stop babying it. :)
