Hi PF,

very fine work - the restoration. The documentation is of outstanding quality. There are very little people who take the time to share what they know. Luckily many of those are members of this forum.
So thanks to you and all the others who do share their knowledge in such an extensive way.

Martin

Thanks, Martin. And as they say, the proof is in the pudding, here are the photos from a roll of film I ran through it afterwards.

Well the pudding turned out fine. Worth the time spent preparing it.
I always (or almost) carry a Kodak Master Photoguide in my camera back. A useful little booklet when it comes to shooting without light meter as it has descriptions of scenes according to exposure values. There's also similar printable one by Rick Oleson.
Enjoy your Mercury and regards
Martin
