But this time I finally got lucky, and it came with a nice 50mm 2.8 macro attached to it. I did not know what to expect, but it was in pretty good shape, and now I have an extra 50mm 2.8 macro lens that I could sell to help offset the cost. I cleaned her up and took a pic, so...
Here is a pic of the new family member:

Ain't she a beaut?
Doesn't even need batteries! Unless I want to meter of course, but it might be fun just to go "out there" with just my gut feel and see what I can get.
Sorry for the long post, but I'm just plain old excited about this old camera, they just don't make them like this anymore This beauty is going to be dedicated to B&W film and primes. Me thinks I'm dragging her along to work tomorrow so during lunch I can go see if I can find some images.
Interesting side note: found a used roll of Kodacolor VR-G 200 36exp film in it. Should I develop it and see what was in it? What if it was taken 10 years ago, would they still be usable?
Cheers,
