Photographs Thirty-three years apart

But the concept remains the same.

Once 110 film became hard to get and harder to process, I really missed that little gem. Now I've got it back. A tiny, high-quality camera that's small enough to take anywhere.

Sweet! I Iike those old cameras.

And those 110 lenses can all be adapted to the Q. And they are truly excellent; better than most lenses available today.

 

[Butch5]

That's cool. I still use my old film lenses on my Digital bodies.

I'm a long-time Pentax user. I really, really like the way the old M42 primes work with digital cameras. And of course, the old K-mount primes work directly on Pentax DSLRs and the K-01.

Nice pics! I too am a long time Pentax user. I've been using Pentax since I got my k1000 back in the 80's

Ah, "the rock." Durable, reliable, and ergonomically perfect. Essentially the continuation of the Spotmatic series that had been refined and improved since 1964. It became the default camera for photography students.

I held on to my Spotmatic F, until it became clear that digital was the way to go. So I got a *istDs. Never looked back. Currently, I have a K-01, a K7d and a K3. And the Q of course.

"The few, the proud, the Pentaxians."

Yep! I started collecting their flagship models before digital got real big. I also purchased a 645nii Medium format body that I love. I currently have *ist D, K20D and the K3ii in digital bodies.

Back in the day, I had a lot of kids, so my medium format alternatives were a bit more economical:

If space was an issue, I'd use a little Voigtlander Perkeo.

Is it 6x6?

 

[Barbarian]

It's 3X5, but I adapted a 120 rollfilm back on it. I can use the leaf shutter in the lens, or the working focal-plane shutter in the body.
