This was extremely helpful. I'm a high school student, and I haven't used my camera for a year . A lot has happened within this past year, so this was really refreshing.
They used to make vinyl or leather cases for these cameras that were secured buy a thumb screw into the tripod mount. These cases would snap closed and that would also help prevent your camera from firing when it's in the bag.
I bought a K 1000 in damn near mint condition The light seal was a mess I cleaned that up A little bit ended up on the focus screen but I just removed it with a clean bit of tissue and distilled water Nothing more This is very important or the screen can ruin Put film in despite no seal replacement I was lucky no leakage But they need replacement. Just one other thing the shutter sticks on 1 sec But all other speeds work fine. The camera will need a general servicing. I think I got it less than a hundred because of these factors Very lucky to find it in camera shop They go for Much more Especially if fully serviced
It's on the lens, though I don't think that particular lens has that setting. I think the rule of thumb there is to Just go with the closest you what you want.
