I'm in love and I haven't even shot anything yet. This thing is mint. Came with the wooden grip, 90mm LS lense with hood and the non TTL prism.

Pics taken with 5D MKII with Pentax Tak SMC 50mm 1.4 Very Happy

Now I need to get a 67 to EOS adapter.

Congrats. The combination red/black looks great. I´m sure you will take very nice shots with this cam.

Lovely one! And I'd agree with Rolf, the particular colour combination adds greatly to the looks. Enjoy it!

Thanks all. I'll have a roll of Portra 400 in it tonight and shoot it the weekend.

I keep catching myself looking at it...staring at it. Even if i don't use it much it'll be my private sculpture. Laughing

That's a beauty!

I can see a Tak 1.4/50 on your 5DMkII. Doesn't the mirror hit the rear part of that lens? I cannot use my Tak 1.4/50 on my 5D.

Those 67s sure are purdy... and I agree re. the red leather, puts this one in the va-va-voom category.

If I put the lense at infinity lock yes it hits. But if I focus at infinity it's ok. Seems infinity lock is beyond infinity. Must be Einstein lense. Laughing

Here are some off camera flash pics of the camera. Other shots were with halogen lamp light.

I think this camera, out of all the rest I own, will be photographed more than used to photograph. Very Happy

Beautiful Super Multi Coated Tak 90 2.8. If you notice...this came with a Really Right Stuff mounting plate. I guess I need a RRS ball head now.



Hood is a little tattered.





Ghetto Studio...now open. Laughing




A question...how do I know if there's film in the camera? I can fire and wind and the counter goes up. But I thought this camera needed film to fire so now I'm wondering if this was shipped with film inside? The camera is from an estate.

I was out shooting today with a test roll of Portra 400NC. Man this camera has some major th-clunk. I had it on the tripod for all the shots and used my 5D for the meter. Each shot had the MLU engaged. Can't wait to see what these are like.
