Oh, the days of metal cameras with fake leather are over, aren't they?
But i'm sure some brave soul will try painting theirs.

Whoops, sorry, i mean the M 135mm f/3.5. I'm looking to buy something
that'll take decent pictures while keeping my bank account intact.

that uses a selinium cell and only meters down to 6 EV with
asa100 film, when most modern cameras meter all the way down to 0 ev.

Exactly. Pentax cameras do what i want without fuss, and without much
of a hit to the wallet. Well, i take that back, maybe the old russian
rangefinders can do the same thing for about $20, and they do have the
cool CCCP label on them

eg, 200T, 280T, 200SA, 400T, and others?

Anyone know if the focusing screen in the program plus is the same one

I use primes only because the fast ones are cheaper. And I get to think
