Fun times when your universe shrinks I have no idea what happens next week, sometimes the day of the week becomes irrelevant, the only day is today. Oakville by early April was winding down with a lot less activity on the streets save for road reconstruction on Lakeshore in the eastern half of Downtown Oakville. Road construction is considereed essential and chances are this part of the "big dig" will be finished ahead of schedule.  Everything else, gone quiet. I grabbed this chrome Pentax KM for a decent price at Burlington Camera, the meter was broken but that's not a problem because I have a couple of handheld meters I can choose from. KM's for those not familier with Pentax's mid 1970s was the entry level full featureed body, the K1000 below it was introduced a year later as a stripped down student camera. The grand irony is the KM only made for three years is cheaper than the K1000 which for now retails around $200 CAD used. I'll get the meter fixed so...
