I forget to mention, the Camera only was $150, I paid $50 for the like-new 50mm F1.4 Super-Takumar lens on ebay a few years ago. I forgot how to tell if it is 7 or 8 element version! Probaby 8 as I used to know. Old age must be getting to me! JCO

This is one of my favorite M42 camera models and very hard to find in black. Check it out: http://jcoconnell.com/temp/sl01.jpg http://jcoconnell.com/temp/sl02.jpg http://jcoconnell.com/temp/sl03.jpg I am really delighted that my searching is over. Even nicer is the fact that I got it for a very reasonable $150 which is a lot less than some of the asking prices I have seen on much poorer specimens. Cameras like these are why I cant get into the new stuff so much. They just don't make em like this anymore. NO BATTERY!
