First SLR film camera

Today my frist SLR film camera came :D not from friend who is upgrading but from one of his friends :) with 3 rolls of colour film and 1 roll of b/w film! xD

no manual with it, but that's no biggie thanks to mr google found online manual and a you tube video :)

So not to keep you waiting any longer it is *drum roll*

Praktica BC1 35mm SLR Film Camera

oh! and it came with a lens too xD which is useful :)

The lens is marked with Praktica PB 3.5-4.5 / 35-70 MC Pentacon.

So I have my first lens :) I know that 3.5-4.5 usually has f in there, usually written as f/3.5-4.5 and that the 35-70 is 35 -75mm. I know that it's a focal zoom lens, beyond that not much. Though this is a learning curve and will still have fun with it :)

I'll be tagging posts about this camera as "Praktica BC1"  so yeah gonna see if battery in it and if so, will have a play with it and report back :)

This is SO exciting!!

Update: 6:53pm 

no battery in it :(  will have to wait till tomorrow, meanwhile paws are black from using big bro's screwdriver to unscrew the battery compartment. after the screwdriver cooled from him re-shaping it with the grinder.

Update: 7:14pm

despite the above setback am not grumbling too much, can't complain for a freebie :) Meanwhile am reading up about new camera and looking forward to playing with it.
