PENTAX 67 + 35mm Panoramic Conversion Kit + 45mm f/4 lens.

I think it is time to take it out for a spin.... :)

 

Bought this 35mm panoramic conversion kit used from keh.com.

 

Some info on the 67 manual, might be useful for others (words in " " is the exact wording from the manual):

1. Battery.

"Use the Akaline battery (4LR44, A544) or the Silver-Oxide battery (4SR44, 544, PX28) aligning the polarities correctly."

"The Alkaline battery should last about 6 months, while the Silver-Oxide battery about one year with average use at normal temperature. However, when the TTL pentaprism is used, the battery will last less as it also activates the TTL meter.

 

2. Dry Fire 67 / "Shutter Release without Film"

"The shutter release mechanism of the 67 camera is designed to be disengaged when a film is not loaded. Should you need to release the shutter without loading film, follow either one of the following methods.

 

A] Release the shutter with the back closed

1. Open the camera back by sliding the release tab.

2. Turn the exposure counter dial counter-clockwise until the counter indicates "1" or more.

3. Close the camera back while keeping your finger on the exposure counter dial. Turn the level until the shutter is cocked.

 

B] Release the shutter with the back open

1. Cock the shutter as described in the procedure A].

2. Open the camera back and insert the shutter cocking key into the slot below the wind level as illustrated. Then, the shutter can be released without closing the camera back. "
