Hello from Preston, UK

**joekennedy** · 8-Feb-2009, 06:20

Good morning all,
I've got a fairly full kit bag - or a few of them to be honest - which has different cameras for different purposes.
My main work horse is a Pentax 67 usually with the 55mm attached but I've also got the 90 / 105 / 135.

I also shoot with a Pentax K10D for digital and two old fixed lens 35mm rangefinders - Konica Auto S3 and a Yashica GTN. The GTN is having surgery at the mo though.

Recently I picked up a Mark VII MPP Microtechnical with the 180mm Xenar fitted with the RF cam to suit. I've also just bought a Super Komura 90mm f6.3 SW for it but having some issues at the minute......

All the stuff is used with a Benbo Trekker.

Welcome to the forum, Joe.

This is a great place for getting answers to your questions about LF, as there are a lot of helpful people around here with loads of experience. I have been able to learn a lot here.

Joe, and anyone else in the vicinity...
