This Old Camera: Pentax ME Super or the start

Scroll down to content

My father’s original ME Super packed it in last year when my parents visited Grand Canyon. It is the SLR that prompted me to buy my first Digital ILS Camera a few years ago after taking it for a spin.  After buying my father a Pentax K20D to replace his Pentax ME Super left me with an ME Super sized hole I filled it recently by buying my own. Then my father had a glint in his eye when he saw mine so I surprised him with his own replacement copy.

Pentax ME Supers

Enough rambling. Instead of using an era proper lens I chose the Mitakon 85mm f/2.0 because look at the thing on this camera!

Who cares what the pictures look like. Priorities off I agree, but there it is. The full ME Super gallery can be seen here.
