I did that in the bag I had in between my old one and my current backpack. It won't fit sideways in my backpack, unfortunately. I always wind the film on, because I'm certain to forget to wind and miss a shot if I don't. ;) I also always carry a spare 4SR44 battery. In fact, I have one in each different bag I use, as well as a pair of spare SR44s for my LX and ME Super. > The one I got in my 6x7 (secondhand) is incredible. Two stops brighter > than > my RB67.

It's a gem, isn't it? You're shooting with a waist level finder, not a prism, right? The prism is good, but it's shocking how much light it eats (but I suppose all prisms are like that). Still, the view through it is great. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
