I carried 2 heavy Pentax 6x7 bodies, various lenses and filters to London and most of my B&W on my November 1980 bought 6x7 MU Mk 1 were out of focus -- i got only THREE worth showing -- well back home I noticed there was some 'movement' in the camera back and saw that the back foam seals top and bottom had gone rotten - so i have renewed the seals and left camera overnight to settle and this morning all seems well -- no more play on camera back . I hope the E6 COLOUR
on the 6x7 Mk II body are sharper when film is processed.
