This well used F3 P just came to join the collection. The P's are specially made for press and rugged enviroments. It differs from the "normal" F3 that it hasn't got a self timer, double exposure switch, no automatic 1/80thsec for the first frames of a roll of film and a few other minor things, it does have a flash shoe on top of the (titanium) prism,extra seals for weather and dust protection and a small round window with frame counter on top of the body next to the winding lever.
It came with the "B" type focussing screen wich I really don't like, but on the plus side despite its appearance everything works just fine even the metering LCD hasn't got any bleeding (wich is rather common on F3's) Maybe I'll try it out with some film one of these days, but I still have to shoot the major part of the roll wich is in the Leica M4....
