A Walk In The Park

So I went for a walk through Weston Lions Park today, and thought I'd give my cameras a slight bit of excercise.
Decided to give the EOS 750 a bit of a workout, and it turned out to be a very smart thing.  The camera, apparently, has a touch of a light leak from the film door at the "peep hole for the, which is very easily corrected, with a bit of either black tape, or as I have done, scotch tape and the flap of a film cannister box.

The fun part about using this camera, is that it is not the typical 35mm SLR.  It's a "Program" only SLR, that has two settings.  ADEP for auto depth of field, or PROGRAM.  Very odd, but allows the user to take their mind off of settings on the camera, and just focus on the images they are planning on taking.
For this particular outing, I mated the camera with an M42 lens, instead of the usual EF lens, and the lens of choice was a 50mm ƒ/1.8 Pentacon M42e lens.  What a nice little lens!  Needs a touch of cleaning, but besides that, it is a wonderful lens to use.

Arm in Arm

Pining for you...?
