I told SWMBO that after selling the Toyo and Zone VI, then buying this and a new tripod + head, I'll only be out about $800. Then I found the Acratech GP-S head. Sigh.
Leica 50mm Summilux ver.II in chrome. Nearly mint too, minus a few tiny cosmetic bright spots along the barrel. Couldn't be happier, and it looks beautiful on my M2.
Technically this is my second 50mm f1.4 Nikkor-sc, this time in Nikkor-rf mount with Amedeo adopter. It arrived last Friday and I shot my first roll of film with it last weekend. Pretty good results too. But the LTM version focuses closer.
Nikon FE, Black in Demo Condition with a 6 month warranty 😀
To go with my 2011 RFF Xmas give-a-way Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 AiS, That I got serviced for a claw that was bent.
Scored an XA2 on ebay the other day, hoping it arrives by the time the weekend rolls around. I had an XA, but found the lens a little soft and rangefinder frustrating. I'm OK with zoning and the sharper tessar-type lens of the XA. It'll be my B&W shooter, while I pack my Stylus Epic with color films. Keeping it simple. It's fun, it's cheap.
A konica 35EE and an Olympus Pen EE2, I seem to be gravitating more and more to Olympus cameras as time goes on. Now if only I could find a Pen F I could afford.
A Gossen Luna-Star F, for $95. I've been looking for a decent electronic light meter to use with my Mamiya RZ for quite some time but new ones are expensive and my local photo store doesn't stock used ones, so I browsed craigslist and called the number on the ad – lo and behold, it was my Studio Portraits instructor from a few years back, I'm guessing he upgraded to a fancier meter.
