Downgrading my SLR Equipment to Photomechanics.

I always wanted one, a SLR without an exposure meter, no battery just pure mechanic, a clockwork. Evaluating EV's by experience or luck. An now: i got the best SLR i ever used, the focussing is the best i ever had, the viewer is bright and the fresnel lens seems to be the genuine article. no nonsene, the 1st time i feel spot of sharpness. Together with the amazing ORWO NP 7 me and my SR-1 becoming fast friends! Stand 1h Rodinal.
