Oh, and don't be too put off if the K1000 looks a little rough. As long as the seals are good and the lens glass is good, the camera will still probably work just fine. The thing is a tank. I've had mine for 20+ years and even after all I've put that camera through, it still works like a champ. Seriously. Tank.

Ah, I forgot the thermometer! I knew I'd forgotten something. Hey, I'm on the East Coast, it's late for me

A word of caution about 40-year-old film cameras: The shutter may not be accurate. They generally tend to be OK at 1/60 and slower, but the faster speeds usually aren't what you dial them to.

For instance, 1/125 may be 1/100, 1/250 end up at 1/150 and 1/500 is 1/190. You'll end up with a lot of over-exposed shots. Without a shutter timer, you'll just be guessing unless you want to burn several rolls of film to benchmark the shutter.
