The first Japanese 35mm pentaprism SLR came on the market in 1957: the "Asahi Pentax". In the face of fierce competition from mirrorless cameras, Pentax continues to manufacture single lens reflexes with a glass prism finder, believing that an electronic finder cannot replace the experience of direct viewing on a ground-glass screen. With the K-3iii Monochrome (2023) they stick to this philosophy.
Here a view of the slow-speed dial of the original Asahi Pentax, taken by the Pentax K-3iii Monochrome.
The lens used is the magical SMC Pentax Soft f:2.2 85mm (ca.1985), together with its companion and contemporary, the Pentax Rear Converter-A 1.4x-L, giving a focal length of ca. 120mm. The lens was stopped down to its minimum aperture of f:5.6, resulting in an actual aperture of f:8 with the converter.
The K-3iii Mono was mounted on a tripod with a heavy ball-head plus a focussing-rail. A halogen lamp was reflected from the ceiling.
From top to bottom the subject as shown measures just under three inches.
HMM!
You are looking at the business-end of the Canon RC-5 IR remote which requires a 2-second wait after you push the button until it trips the shutter. What a slo-mo pain! Fortunately there are better options!
Macro Mondays – theme: photography gear
"Pretty as a Picture" Devonshire Poppies
This was one of my favourite scenes in Farmer Jaspers wheat field.
The combination of the natural colours of the cereal crop dappled with fresh red poppies and big blue cloudy sky made this a"Feelgood" moment.

This is the shutter release button my my Fuji X-30 camera. I had to buy this for my camera and got my favourite sea-creature, the Sea Horse. I just love it!
Atlantic Rainbow - Pendeen Lighthouse...
After checking the weather and sea conditions I headed for the north westerly Cornish coast. I wanted the sun behind me for taking photographs of the sea.
My camera gear was set up for rainy conditions with a circular polariser filter fitted to the lens to protect it from the sea spray and to enhance any rainbows
Gear : Canon 7D mk1 with 24-70mm f/4 L lens
“Harbour Protection”
I came across this quaint little place while taking a break from searching for red deer on Exmoor so zoom lens off and wide angle on!
The sea was about to reach a very high tide at Porlock Weir.
The dramatic shoreline Groynes not only have a valuable purpose of holding back shingle and controlling sediment but are simply a wonderful wooden art form. The textured, weathered and huge slanted timber structures contrast perfectly with the smooth washed multi-toned pebbles.
“Beechology”
A fine row of beech trees in the outback of the Dorset countryside. A beautiful display of summer greenery with the Autumn colours to look forward to in October.
Observation Deck from the Mori Tower in Roppongi Hills.
Mamiya 7. 80mm f4. Portra 160 film. Shot at f22 for roughly 60 seconds.
Torrential Rain!
What an awesome shoot at Start Point. It was raining so hard that you could see the droplets hitting the sea from a distance.
This photo was just the start! What I saw next was so amazing I wrote about it when I arrived home!
This is the 4th and final chapter in this years storytelling theme of the 52 week challenge. Spinning to a close on the shores of the Great Salt Lake at sunset was a surreal and fitting end to this almost year long story. This is very close to the image I first thought of when Chapter One was given to us and figuring out how to tell the story backwards from here has been an absolute blast! I tried to show the stages creating a photo can go through from the spark of an idea (Chpt 1), to scouting a location,(Chpt 2) to preparing the tools needed to get the shot,(Chpt 3) all along I've been blessed with good sunsets (not easy with months separating each shot!) and a willing and beautiful assistant at my side for each one to share those sunsets with, Thanks Honey!
Macro Mondays: Gift
Sometimes Santa takes very specific wishes straight to the elves at [insert name of your country's big camera store chain here] and they get right on it. So thank you, Santa and the fine elves at [Henry's]!

● JJC 40.5mm vented lens shade and soft shutter release
My 1959 Kodak Retina IIS Type 024
Manufactured in 1959 and 1960, the German-made Kodak Retina IIS is fairly uncommon among Retina collectors, due to its low production run. The little brother to the Retina III S, it features a Synchro Compur leaf shutter with a rangefinder and exposure meter coupled to a superb Schneider-Kreuznach Retina-Xenar 45mm f/2.8 lens.
I bought this one at the Toronto Camera Shows used camera market for $20 in March, 2019. Since then, I had a CLA done and added a JJC 40.5mm vented lens shade and soft shutter release.
And before people ask where I'm getting Kodachrome processed, that's a roll I bought to use as a prop after it was discontinued.
But now that the camera looks and operates like new, I plan to shoot some Ektar and TMax with it soon.
In the meantime, it'll join my Retina IIa, IIc, II S, III S and Reflex S in my collection.

那輕輕的顫動無法停下
必須消逝的日子
就算撥到下一格
昨日還是
如影隨形
一切如是存在
也許
也許這只是一個沉溺的姿勢
只求於虛惘中
發出沉默卻迴盪的聲響
you know it's all in vain, perhaps it's simply addiction
Last Night's sunset, spark free.

For 52 Weeks Theme: Composites
When I saw what this weeks theme was, I let out a sigh and a bit of a groan. My photoshop skills are quite minimal. I can do a few basic things (emphasis on basic), but I've never attempted anything like a composite photo. For the last 2 weeks, I've submitted a photo to the pool, but I chose the "theme is optional route" so this week I was determined to come up with SOMETHING for the chosen theme.
The main photo was taken with my iPhone as it's the only other camera I have since the Canon needed to be in this shot. The cat being in the photo was totally unintentional. She just walked right into the shot and I decided to go with it. That's me jumping. I took that shot with the Canon.
For me, this week was hard! On a positive note, I did learn some new photoshop skills though.
Thanks for viewing my photo!
