My first EK II 1st core mm65

[Tony T-S]

My first Ek II has arrived. Its maker marked 65 Q&K with the first core. The rattles a little in the frame and looks better in real life than the shots suggest. Not a ding or problem anywhere and I want to thank Marc B for looking after me so well. Bought it from his site. I've never held one or looked closely at one in the flesh before, and now understand why Stickgrenade has so many.
Thanks to the people who've given me advice, particularly Hagen, whose been watching out for me, and for all the information people put into threads. This place is essential for newbees like myself.

Put beside my cheapie RK .. well, What I really need to do is save for a Souval RK I think.

I've got to learn how to post shots, but here's the link one more time

Congrats. It is indeed very addicting. After I got my first one, I went on a little spending spree, which I'm now paying for.

IMHO, one of the best for a first.
Congratulations Tony, we will see where it goes from here.

It's been my pleasure Tony. Congratulations on a nice K&Q.

Getting photobucket sorted out again so I'll try posting an out of focus shot of the EK and a group shot of the medals so far.





We'll see if photobucket lets them stay up.

Now for a West wall medal and a Souval RK. Sadly this has left my cheap fake RK looking cheap and fake.
