What have you just BOUGHT?

Another way to feel better about the cost per click is to check FP-100C prices. 🤑

Holy Shamoly! A six-pack for $450.00 on eBay?! Now I feel wonderful!
This stuff was last made in 2016. How well does it keep with refrigeration? My understanding is that it can't be frozen, but I could be wrong. Like they always said in the movies, just before the big battle, "Smoke 'em if ya got 'em, boys!".

Not frozen, the freezer is a no go, but in the fridge it keeps its properties very well.

I still have about 30 packs, paid 11 EUR/pack, so the question - do I use current prices or my historical cost 🙂 ?

I have a small stash, too. I didn't get it as low as 11 EUR, but I wouldn't sell it for what I paid. 😅

My film in the fridge is a sunk cost. No point in worrying about it. My opportunity cost of replacing it is not here yet, so no point in worrying about it either. 🙂

I just ordered a Retina-Heligon 50mm f2 lens converted to Leica M mount with RF coupling.

The seller told me it is even better than the Retina-Xenon lens that he sold me. I certainly hope he is right. 😀

Well it arrived, cleaned up well, fires on all speeds, focuses nicely, have to put a roll through to check spacing etc, came with original case, Rollinar 1 1nd 3, all boxed, lens cap and the Rolleiflex2.8E, all for just £470 posted, I am a very happy chap, by best deal in my 60 long years.

Best deal, indeed! Current conversion rate puts that at $593.00, USD. I'm very jealous!

Many thanks as you can imagine I feel very lucky and happy with this one.

A good salesman!

I've just bought a new battery for my M240.

So, y'know, I 'm going to have to sit down for a minute here....

Pentax 17 just arrived. I always wanted a half frame and the opportunity to have a new one turned out to be irresistable.

oops, forgot I said that! my first serious camera was back in 1979, a Pentax MX, followed by a Lx later on, as I head into my sixties a reacquaintance with Pentax would be nice.

You know you want one..... (my spotmatic is missing from this pic....)

Half-frame isn't a full camera, so it doesn't count.

Half-frame is a state of mind.

My Pentax 6x7 is almost 1/4 frame in comparison....
