I was asking to make myself feel less miserable. I'm a bit paranoid about having a backup. That's why I bought a beat-up Super A (but working fine). BUT, when it returned from the CLA it was certainly looking better, but sometimes the shutter didn't fire. So I returned it to the technician who did the CLA. He said there was nothing wrong with the camera, but he cleaned it again anyway and said it should work fine. And what happened? Now the camera thinks the batteries are low (and they're new, I mean a couple of sets I've put in the camera to check) and it fires only at the mechanical speed (i guess, does the SUper A have a mechanical speed?).
So now I'm left with only a MX (but still have a Contax G1, a Rolleiflex, and a small Yashica rangefinder, so it's not that bad :) Regards, Łukasz -----Original Message----- From: gfen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 18, 2002 9:12 PM To: pentax Subject: Re: how many bodies do you own On Fri, 18 Oct 2002, [iso-8859-2] Łukasz Kacperczyk wrote: > I'm just curious how many 35mm slr (or maybe not necessarily slr) you own. > And what is the lowest number that makes you feel "safe". I only own one 35mm SLR, currently. I just sold my ZX-50 to a coworker. I also own a P645, YashicaMat 124G TLR, and a Speed Graphic Pacemaker which I suppose could've been considered a rangefinder before I took everything off to make it a field camera. At some point, I'm still compelled to add a KX to the collection.
