hi! im not a DP but i use a k3 really a lot. of course you can load the camera in daylight, but try to load in the darkest place you found, like in your car, van or your room. i always load in light and after 3-4 seconds of film runing everything looks fine. the same for unload. about the lenses i recomend to buy a ring adapter for k3 to mount pentacon six lenses. i buy one from olex, a guy in ukraine, and work fantastic and the pentacons six lenses are cheap and brings good image quality. http://geocities.com/russiancamera/ this is olex page, ask him for a ring adapter for pentacon 6 four your k3 m42 screw mount have fun with k3!! play with speed ramps, are really good in this clock work camera.

hi everyone!! im andres from mexico city. im a film editor and my expierence is good enough with k3, i have 3 and one kinor 16, k3 and kinor serviced by olex in ukraine. my advice is to look for a kinor, scopic or eclaire. i love k3 and shoot a lot with that camera, is easy for me, i work alone in experimental projects, but is not a good choice if you want pro work. bye andres
