Great explanation! Just got it and I cannot wait to shoot and develop

Very enlightening, numerous explanations on features that the original Owners Manual never explains (might be the worst written document I've ever read, all marketing BS with scant useful details - I hope the Zeiss engineers were much better than their Support and Marketing people!). Particularly helpful that the manual didn't address is what direction to turn the locking keys on the bottom to open the film compartment. I also appreciated a proper and better expiation of the timer switch, but maybe this should include a word of caution - I've been warned by others to avoid using a delayed timer on older cameras. It's said this is often a weak point in their design and the part most prone to failure, which could lock up the works, thus requiring a difficult and expensive fix. And as David alluded to, it's almost impossible to find anyone to work on these complicated cameras, not to mention the cost, so I'm not gonna tempt curiosity or fate here. Thanks so much David!

I have been shooting my first rolls of this in 120 on three classic cameras. A Yashica 124 G, Ansco Viking 4.5 (6x9cm) and Ansco Speedex Special R (6x6). I'm going to try developing this film myself so fingers crossed that I get some nice images!

Thank you David I have been buying new cameras every time my camera died. God bless

When you take the light reading /stop down metering in what position should the A/M switch on the lens be? Thanks

4:00 The F1 amongst your top 2 or 3 cameras ever made? Which are the others? ❤

You convinced me to fix the light seals in my Spotmatic all Pentax DSLR cameras are ASP-C I dont need anything cropped more like half frame at least the Spotmatic is full frame with interchangeable lenses

perhaps showing actual large prints might be more convincing - thanks for the video anyway

Excellent teaching video. Great details. RS. Canada

I traded my f2.8 for the f2. The 2.8 just felt like it had less character and I liked the idea of an extra stop of light. Even more than that I think the character of the f2 is more pleasing to me. You really can’t go wrong with any of the Olympus lenses from this era though! Thanks for another great video!

I have a lens that gives me a soft haze in the middle whenever I shoot with the sky in the back, is there a name for it?, and its only the sky.

Like your photos, video is very well done as well. Would have liked to see more photos.

I love my FD glass, but testing them is a chore with that silly mount. Gotta bring my a1 to every thrift store😂

As an Industrial designer, this camera is ugly as hell. As a photographer this is a mistake and a flop in the making, wait until people get the first rolls from the labs, they will return this crap to Pentax fast. Pentax will not be able to compete with other camera makers like Lomography and Rollei. Rollei is already working on their brand new Rollei 35 AF...Pentax, what have you done, what a disgrace.

2024 calling!! I bought my 2nd 5D (I had a used one in 2018 but sold it ... and regretted it ever since). My latest one cost $230 and it is in "Straight out of the box" condition, I swear nobody has ever used it. They are fantastic camera and some of the greatest images ever taken were taken on this camera. Remember!! Great cameras don't stop being great.

28mm is so intresting focal length. Definitely a favourite. On the pen F the 20mm 3.5 is the 28 but stil amzing focal length for vertical photos

what a great video. Very useful to see how this works with the actual parts

Thank you for taking the time to make an in-depth tutorial!

4:59, where cinestill shines.

Oh yes, cinestill, a very tempremental stock. Its nice, but only under very specific circumstances, its not for very colorful scenes.

Just started to reuse this film after a year, reminds me of cinestill but not as unpredictable.

What do you call the shutter on these cameras?, like my Nikon F4, the photos have what I call a glass look compared to regular SLRs.

Bro..what is a guillotine shutter?

Next week I will receive the second camera of this design with a fixed Hotschoe. There are 26 models of this design from various manufacturers such as Ricoh, Cosina and Chinon, as well as from photo retailers such as Foto Quelle, Photo Porst, Sears etc., which have sold the export models of the three manufacturers mentioned under other names, which I was able to find after lengthy research. Of these 26 models, only two had a hotshoe, namely the Sigma Mark 1 and the Universa Interflex TL. The Sigma Mark 1 is essentially the first camera model that Sigma ever brought onto the market and was created based on the original blueprints of the Ricoh Singlex TLS, which Sigma bought directly from Ricoh. The Sigma Mark 1 came onto the market in 1976, nine years after the Ricoh Singlex TLS. The Universa Interflex TL is the modified export version of the Cosina Hi-Lite and came onto the market in 1970. In addition to the added hotshoe, modifications included a newly designed cocking and transport lever, as well as a redesigned release button, in which the screw thread was separated from the release button for the cable release and attached behind it. Here is the complete list based on my research: Ricoh Singlex TLS Sears T-L-S Sigma Mark 1 Cavalier Five Thousand RTL Cosina SLR Revueflex T Cosina Hi - Lite Proloisirs Hi - Lite Reporter Hi-Lite universa Interflex TL Carena 1000 Porst uniflex TTL Porst reflex TTL Revueflex 1000s TTL Revue Superflex TTL Ifbaflex TTL Ifbaflex T 1000 Chinonflex TTL Chinon Prinzflex TTL Prinzflex Super TTL Chinon Riaflex TTL Kingflex TTL Focal 1000 TLX Argus STL 1000 Phokina Interflex TLS Evil tongues would claim that these 26 models are roughly based on the Konica Auto-Reflex or Konica Autorex as it is called in Japan, which came onto the market in 1965, but that would be going too far. 😉

Hey David,on my camera(Nikon FM10), shutters 1,1/2,1/4 is not working ,how could I fix it😢.

Have you ever developed it in D76 1:1 and if so at what time? Most reviews I have seen show that it was not exposed at box speed but at 40ASA. Thank you in advance; I shoot 120 via a Fuji GSW690 III and Minolta Spotmeter and print in a darkroom. Up until now Tri-X rated at 200 with the lightest yellow filter. Would it screw up the balance of this film?

@1:10, the AoV cell for the 2.8 says "AoV" instead of a number. Was that not available online or not measurable?

tyvm for the video! I own the f/2 so I am obviously a fan of spherical/chromatic/pedantic abomination and I'm getting what I payed for. Or not?

I have this exact model, but the red flag does not work in any mode. I wonder if I still could be able to use the camera in a decent way to have pictures with a good exposure. Thank you in advance. The shutter works, by the way.

Well done, a very useful video fpr new owners. I picked up my copy at the Frankfurt fleamarket for 13 Euro (14$), now i am prepared, when the battery will arrive tomorrow. Thank you.

Yay, the 28mm showdown I've personaly been waiting for! I'm routing for Zuiko 28mm f/2, since it's the only one of these I have, but it's definitely not a perfect lens, so I expect f/2.8 to be a bit better.

Hello,I have a Pentax A SMC f1:2 50mm,but the appertaure ring is very tight and the threaded ring above focusing number,just rotates and focusing is not working,is there any way to fix this

Great Videos on the T7. Can this camera be charged via the micro USB port? We forgot the battery charger and tried to charge via the micro USB port, but nothing.

I know a lot of photographers turned their nose up at this inexpensive film stock, but I loved it, and am sad it’s gone. Very shootable, affordable, and pleasant colors, particularly the reds and greens. Was very disappointed to see Fuji replace it with rebranded Kodak stock, everything is becoming so homogenized.

I have a feeling that the focusing screen in itself is a Fresnel lens, am I right?

Wonderful poetry and great sights.

Tomorrow i'm shooting with that camera ;) Regards and thanks

Besides some stuff as a kid with an old Pentax SLR, I began my film photography journey with an FM2 I picked up off eBay 4 years ago. An absolutely phenomenal camera to work with. Decently newbie friendly, while also having a suite of features experienced photographers will appreciate. Definitely the best old-fashioned, all-manual film camera for the price if you ask me. The old MF Nikon lenses have incredible clarity still as well. I particularly love the Nikkor 35-70mm f/3.5 & 80-200 f/4.

So helpful, Thank you!

I recently got one of these for my son to learn on and your videos have been invaluable for his learning. Great explanation of everything. Thanks for this video series.

Do you know whether Ricoh made their own lenses or simply re-branded third party lenses?

Auto mode is fixed focus at 1m-infinity.

The best thing about 200 Gold is its price. No matter how good a colour film is, Portra 400 for example, it is of no use when it is so expensive that a photographer could not buy ten rolls of it to learn the film. I think with Gold 200, learning the film is more of a possibility.

hey ! this was an amazing video but how do we open the details of picture thats already taken? if you could answer that that would be amazing !

I have bought a Nikon FM SLR, black, and I have installed a new pair of batteries because half a year passed. Thumbs up. Also, as it states in the user manual make sure that the Film Advance Lever is not at the stand off position because the batteries can be drained of energy very quickly.📷

I never knew there was an SE model of the K1000. I may need to acquire another K1000 to mate up with my MESuperSE! Great video. Long Live Pentax. I am the original owner of Asahi Pentax K1000 S/N 6608264.

Just waisted 5 minutes listening to this dross. He doesn’t believe that the top and bottom are made of magnesium alloy, who cares what you believe?. Then he speaks about how to hold a screw. Idiots like this are trying so hard to tarnish a beautiful film camera 📷 from Pentax in 2024. We don’t need this kind of garbage from so called experts.
