New toy!

Well, it isn’t mine exactly.

For some unknown reason, Irene’s dad owns a Pentax K1000, an aged, heavy, metal brick of a camera which upon scrutiny, I think will work again. It just needs some CLA. It’s being lent to me unconditionally, and Irene’s dad doesn’t even know how to use it. So I think it’s almost mine. Almost.

It’s currently mated with a 50mm F2.0 and I think it’s meter is busted. I wish I had a light meter.
