I took two heavy Pentax 6x7[b] bodies with lenses and filters on a 'Tourist Trip' around North and South Banks of the River Thames in London. Most of the B&W from 6x7 Mk I bought Nov. 1980 were unsharp due to focus issues but I traced it to 'play' on camera back due to rotten light seals top and bottom which I have renewed and now better focus. Here are few from my
6x7 Mk IIon 2002 dated Fuji RMS rated at 80 ASA instead of 100 as it was 'old' . All on the SMC Pentax 45mm f4 6x7 lens and 'auto' exposure.

Thanks -- I will rate the next roll at 100 ASA as although it is 'old' it seems not to have lost sensitivity -- has been in fridge since I was given it.
