Looking for something in usable condition with a working TTL meter.

Never owned a 35mm SLR so don't really know what I want, but would rather buy here than on the auction site.

I have a selection of M42 mount lenses so really looking for M42 mount SLR but if you have a camera in anouther mount with a couple of lenses looking for a home in any other mount that may be good too.

Thanks

It depends on what it is, the condition.

Possibly £10 - £50 for the body. But if there's a something better I may consider it. I just don't want to spend too much at 1st as I don't know how much I'll use it.

Otherwise I'm back to picking up Zenits on the fray. Rolling Eyes

I have a Praktica you can have, I can't remeber which one - I'll have a look.
If you're going to buy one then you could get a pretty decent Pentax for £50.

It's an MTL-5. Yours for the postage if you promise to use it. Smile

MTL-5 is a good one, takes normal battery. Light meter is trust able this camera was my first one after P6 or MTL3B I don't remember exactly.

I have a Praktica TL3 too if any use, fully working or a Zenit EM, working and needs no battery

The TL3 could be useful. What do you want for it?

I have a Zenit EM that I bought for the lens. Brick of a camera but I don't like the meter on it as it's not the greatest.

Yours for the postage, its in good condition, and I have the manual. I have a Yashica M42 mount that I use instead of it. Like you I bought it for the lens. Very Happy a pentacon 50mm. Send me a PM if you are interested.
