My summer with the best 35mm film cameras ever made. 

You never forget that first love.

And you can still get it serviced.

You have to acknowledge the master.

I'm looking for a 35 for my M2. I think I might see about a non-metered prism for my F2 as well.

A black paint F2 is a thing of beauty.

I've always felt like I'm weird because I've never clicked with any of the Pentax cameras. The K1000 was uninspiring. I tried to find a Spotmatic that worked right but never have.

45/2.8 Planar, OK, sorry. Saw the roses pics and loved them

It’s a rehoused Contax 45/2 G mount. I want to do another video about it soon. I love the thing.

Thank you!

I like the M3, but I don't often use a 50mm. If you give me a 35mm lens, it will stay on my camera like it's welded there, so I went M2. Still, the M3's a lovely camera. I've never seen an F out in the wild. Is it your daily driver?

@@nobodyneedsthis yeah, I tend to shoot on 35mm and 50mm in that order. But there's something unique with the M3 about keeping both eyes open when shooting (due to the almost 1:1 viewfinder). It's like having the framelines in augmented reality hovering over the world. The F is a wonderful camera, and probably the one I enjoy the most shooting

I had an ftb for a little while, before I traded it to a guy who really wanted it. Only got one roll through it, so I don't have enough experience to know if I liked it or not.

I've only used a XA and a Stylus Epic. The XA was quirky, but good. The Epic was fine, I'm just not a point and shoot guy. I've never tried any of the SLRs, I did use one of the dSLRs for a while.
