Do you mean Pentax ME Super? While it has a vertically run metal shutter, probably the one by Copal, as far as I know it isn't titanium. To my knowledge the only Pentax titanium shutter is the horizontally run titanium foil shutter on the LX.

If not titanium, what do you believe it is?

Either way, I like metal shutters better than fabric even though they're vulnerable to dings.

For my "Too Common" project these last few months, I've been using:

Nikkormat FT2
28/3.5 Nikkor H

Kodak Ultramax 400, commercially developed and printed.

I'm really starting to like the Ultramax. Nice colors and a speed that lets me have good shutter speeds in low light.
 
Slumming around town yesterday: Nikon F5 w/80-200 F2.8 ED AF-D Nikkor, and a Nikon F6 w/28-70 F2.8 ED AF-S Nikkor; both were loaded with Ektachrome E100G, with several additional rolls in my bag. Shot seven rolls and a bit over the course of the day. Into the freezer for the short term; likely to The Lab sometime towards the end of next week for processing.
 
I just developed a roll of agfavista200 in tetenal colour dev. I can't remember how long it's been sat there, a few months. Think I shot it in an olympus af-1 that I found in a charity shop for £3.50. Or was it the XA? Hmm.
Anyway. The tetenal's been sitting under the sink for about 3 years now. Still works.
Then I forgot you have to blix colour film and my blix went bad long since.
So I threw some ferri and bromide into a pot and used that. And fixed it in rapid.
 
An Olympus PEN 1/2 frame camera and Arista EDU 100. I processed the roll of film, but I still have to put it into negative sleeves.
 
Ran a roll of the new P3200 through my F3 and 105/2.5 - all incredibly boring indoors or contrasty night lighting situations. Developed in XTol 1:1 68deg with 60sec initial and 3 gentle inversions at each minute for 17 minutes (based on massive dev chart more or less).

Results: I really should filter my stock solution :angel: and the negatives came out more dense than I'm used to so I'll adjust the time down a few percent, but the grain pattern is beautiful and not clumped up or ragged in any way, just like I like.
 
Pentax MX, 50/1.4, Kentmere 400, to test some Tmax developer donated to the school, (the developer was bad, BTW).
 
last 3 cameras, Ensign 1220 last Monday, Franka Solida 3 on Wednesday and Werrmatic on Thursday, all Fomapan 400, first 2 120 and last 35mm, all developed in Rodinal 1/50
Results some lovely negatives that I realy need to print
 
Nikon N75 with a 28mm to 300mm Tamron AF zoom lens and Kodak UltaColor 400 film.
 
810 Harman Titan, 5 sheets of APX 100 + 1 sheet of FP4. Processed in HC110 in one of those fancy Jobo machines. Did the processing at Art Intersection in Gilbert Arizona. Awesome facility. Going back on Thursday or Friday to print don’t a few on the negatives. This is my efforts for WPPD.

Ditto...great place
 
FM2n, Ektar 100, processed by Kenmore Camera lab. Currently working on a roll of Ektar in the F3P (and have one waiting to be shot in both the F and the F5 - F2AS has HP5+, FM2n has TMZ-P3200, and FT2 has a roll of CineStill 50D).

Zeiss Nettar 515/16 (this is 6x6 format) with Portra 160 NC from 2007 that I'm rating at ISO 100.

Will have results next week.

Also using Rollei RPX 25 in my 1934 Leica III, Impossible Spectra in my Polaroid Image 1200, and more Kodak Ultramax 400 in my Nikkormat FT2.

Finally got around to finishing Acros 100 (only 3 more rolls of this film left) in Fuji GF 670, last for frames of Delta 100 in Hassy CM and last four frames of Delta 100 in Canon P. Remainder frames due somewhat to bad winter storms. Film waiting to be processed piling up because of other obligations. Lots of film to develop.
Right now using Retina B with Delta 100 and Leica M4 with HP5.
Oh yes, ever present in pocket a Minox. Now a Minox C with Delta 100 and Minox BL w Delta 400.
 
A Mamiya M645 1000s someone gave to me, because they don't use it anymore. I shot a roll of Arista Ultra EDU 100 and developed it in HC-110 Dilution B for 6 minutes.
 
Agfa Karat IV
Fomapan 100
D-76 1:1 10 minutes @ 68deg F
30sec continuous agitation
3 inversions per minute thereafter
 
Shot some tests with my "new" Hasselblad 500 C/M. Converted this shot to a reddish sepia using Affinity S/W. Original film is Ektar 100, developed C41.

One of the many abandoned buildings outside downtown Detroit.
