The MX mirror bumper is about 2mm thick and the same width. The MX also has
narrower strips (1.75mm) on the sides and back of the top of the mirror box
as light seals.
The MX one should be 3mm as well. 2mm is definitely too thin.

Don,
I'm sorry I don't know much about the health effects of inhaling

Well,
Good, free, promotion of a Pentax camera.

This seems to mean that Kodak can still provide it. Will they still
manufacture it, or any other color negative films in ISO 100?

That's possible.
I have a FA 28-70mm f/4.0 AL on the way to me (haven't seen it yet) and
it's presumably got some small (I hope) glitch in it's 'macro' feature.
Odd that it's essentially the same lens.
I'll be wringing it out as soon as I get it.
I'll report back...

Hi
I had bad experience with Kodak. I got back 3 (2
slides + 1 print) rolls processed from Kodak. My local
camera shop uses Kodak lab for developing; slides are
marked as developed by Kodak.
Slide film
One roll of slide had horiztoal scratch on each film.
Scratch ran parallel to longer edge.
In which way is the 4/28-70 "essentially" same as 2.8/28-70. And which kind of macro
feature the former has? Mine did not have any IIRC. The 4.0/28-70 is one very good
lens.
All the best!

No, it was not a Zeiss trademark. But the way it was conceived is probably the way you

Hi all,
I've offered my A*300mm f/4 to the camera shop as partial trade against a
6x7 lens. It saddens me to do so but its had no use since I picked up an

Unfortunately its hard for us to decide upon a fair value. I searched
Ebay, B&H, KEH and Google and came up with nothing.

Yeah, the focal length range is the same.
Like I wrote, the 4.0/28-70 is a very good lens: sharp, small, light and focuses close
- but not very confidence inspiring mechanically.

Praktica was originally made by Kamera Werkstatten at first in Dresden, then in
Niedersedlitz (wherever that may be) - Pentacon was formed later in 1964 by joining
together several (five?) East German state-owned camera manufacturers, from 1959 under
the name of VEB Kamera und Kinowerke Dresden.
