they come up quite regularly...good cameras

what is funny is what the google translation says...

"The camera had recently suffered a CLA with Jürgen Kreckel (certo6.com), lentils and clear without scratches / fungus, ALL times are good, soft and smooth focusing. A Astia slide film, I have exposed to the sample, the camera works flawlessly. "

😀 😀

Lentils? OK, I don't understand, but that must be a good thing.

I still think one several years ago describing the lens on a Fujica ST 901 as being without mushrooms is a little better. 😀

 

[John Robertson]

Lentils are from the same latin root as lenses, because of the shape of a lens being similar to a lentil!
Babelfish is a VERY rough tool!!!

Oh, the utter horror of it all! Did it get his glow-in-the-dark blue bellows?

He He , Lentils..opens up new posibilities for jokes.

the guy returns to the optomitrist and says .'hey Doc can you give me back my glasses, i cant see a thing out of these new contact lentils!'

like in the movies when the guy walks across the road, the cars screeches to a halt sounding it horn, tha cabby hangs out the window and says 'hey buddy watch were ya going, what are ya blind" the guy says 'only since i got my new contact lentils'

cant see em...pity the guy selling it in a way, its a bit weird, he lives in Germany, sent away to the US to buy the camera when there are heaps in Germany already, and is now selling it to Germany, no shipping

I had forgotten that. Thanks for reminding me. I previously saw a posting on that through my lentils.

If anybody is interested: I own 2 Weltax, both with the Tessar, both have the original masks and are in mint condition. Speeds tested for accuracy. None of them has suffered from Mr. Kreckel....
I'd prefer to give it to a member of the RFF instead of listing it on ebay.

Uh..., did you say "give?"

 

[Solinar]

He did say give. I already have my fair share of cameras. So, I'll be sitting this one out.

Well, if you're giving it away, I'll take it!

For future reference, "give" means to make a gift of. "Sell" is the word you're looking for, I think.

 

[chippy]

hehe , i didnt think he meant 'give away' , even though thats what he wrote..i took it as he preferred it to end up in the hands of a RFF member than to sell it on ebay to a stranger.

Thomas, list it in the classifieds (if no one PM's you) and post some pictures of it, hopfully for the right price someone will snap it up (though people like bargins!), they are good reliable cameras and come in different shutters etc
