IMO, Jeffery, you were right to buy it on those grounds. It is the last Pentax 35mm film camera , and I love using it. I've recently shot exclusively with it rather than using digital: the need to think more about each shot is a valuable discipline, I think, as well as it being such a pleasure to use.

I bought it around the time I suspected that it would be Pentax's last film body (I have a wealth of Pentax lenses, from 20mm to 300mm). I received it, unboxed it, put a 50/1.4 on the front of it, and promptly got clobbered by Katrina, followed by Rita. It remained in a Domke bag under a ton of stuff carried from the first floor to the second floor, and got unearthed a few months ago. A lot happened over the past 5 years. I still have a lot of B&W film, so I'll probably put some fresh battteries in it and give it a maiden voyage.
