Camera and Coffee

I wouldn't risk the rubber seals with hot espresso (Mocha)...
By the way, it's not Nikonos.
Yup, I just paid attention. D'oh


Watched a guy in Roatan after a dive absentmindedly open the back of the camera to remove the film and then sink it into the freshwater tank to rinse it ... without closing the back. He was, uhm, unhappy.

This is definitely a costly mistake.
 

My man!

I have 50 Jahre "Jubilee" M5 in black that DAG overhauled for me a few years ago. Wonderful camera. Yeah, it's different than the standard legacy Ms but it's a really innovative camera both then- and now.

I was but a youth when these came out and I so, so wanted one, but it was way outside my means. When the Jubilee edition I have now became available, I snapped it up. Yes, I paid (somewhat) too much but what a joy it has been to own and use.

It's good to see that all the hate for this camera died down and people today recognize it as the wonderful bit of engineering it is. It is said that there was a late production run of these after the camera officially stopped being built, just for the Japanese market.
 
A. The first SLR camera I got from my father was a Konica Autoreflex A. It's hard to say I was emotionally attached to it, and it was soon replaced by a Nikormat FTN.

B. Why is the preview so small?
