Belgium man, Belgium!
Hello good RF people,

I was one of the 'early birds' on at this weekend's Antwerp Photo Fair and I managed to get a beautiful 1955 double stroke M3, absolutely mint and CLA'd complete with 1969 Elmar 1:2.8/50.
And some German chap was selling quite interesting Adox and Rollei B&W films, so I can't wait to get out and shoot!
Just wanted to share my enthousiasm...

The M3 is one of the great cameras of all-time, and I enjoy mine immensely.

You will to.
 
Congratulations. I can understand and share your enthusiasm having just picked up my first M. Look forward to seeing some images.

Enjoy.

Regards

Gid
 
You wait, Gid! Be happy with your M6 but just wait when the M3 bug bits you... you'll enjoy that one even more.

I really like my own 1957 M3, so congratulations on yours! 🙂

Good for you. It looks like a great kit. I'm very interested to know how your luck with the Adox film goes. I've thought about getting some to try myself.

Efke/Adox 100 at 400; M2 with Nikkor 85/2 at f2.

It scratches if you look at it, and curls badly, but I like the look.
