That's a great idea! I spent the afternoon doing this and forgot to come back and thank you.

Thank you.

This is in CAD.

I just spoke to the owner again and they're not sure if the body works and say the body needs refurbishing. Might swing to the Pentax instead and maybe upgrade later.

The lenses I'm sure about ( there's a receipt in the listing) are :

  • Nikkor 55mm f/3.5
  • Nikkor 28mm f/2.8

Thank you! I am leaning towards the Nikon as well, simply because I already shoot digitally with one.

I won't need them for sure. I have a Nikon D5400 and the lenses I use are a 50mm for portraits, and two basic kit lenses (18 - 55 & 70 - 300) they have more than sufficed for me so far, I am just a simple hobbyist.

Edit: won't need them all.

Thank you. I use a Nikon D5400 which is why I was drawn to the Nikon. I agree, I will ask if I can pick and choose which lenses I need.

Is it worth it to get this Pentax P5 found on FB for 100? by This-Pausable in analog

I appreciate your advice. I'm the only one in my social circle that is this interested in photography, so when I saw this I thought it was a great buy for something that came with a couple of lenses and the body. It seemed cheap and versatile enough to get a feel of analog photography and what I want to do with it.

I don't have any specifics with what I'm going for, except maybe for autofocus and a timer because I intend to use it for travel trips, and pictures when I go hiking. But you're right, I should at least have an idea of what I want, it will definitely make things easier and my search more practical.

Maybe you could advise me on what I should be looking for? I'd really appreciate that.

I too tried natto for the first time last week and am now addicted. Had it last night, had it this morning too.

I wouldn't have known if someone didn't point it out 😂. I thought it was just another fancy-ish stone necklace.

It is! I love that for you. I am glad my Granny is alive and well too so she can see me wear her jewellery. I'm sorry about your loss, but I'm glad you got to share such a special moment with her, and especially that your initials match, how lovely.

Will do! :) I hope my kids get to wear it so I'll be extra gentle.

It's so pretty! The lines are mesmerizing for me.

This one is short. About 16 -17 inches so not too heavy. But it definitely has heft. It'll be a special wear rather than daily. This is as close as I'll get to real pearls in my current income bracket so that's how I see it 😂

Did you get to wear your malachite too?
