Bad times for the M6 in 2011!

I haven't been on the forum for many, many moons. I decide to pop in tonight and what do I see? The twin brother to my M3!

Mark -- and here I thought I was being unique! A few more were posted back when I had the camera recovered, including a couple showing my matching 90mm Elmar --

My newly purchased Black Paint M3 with my 50mm Lux V2.

Wow! what a beautiful combo 🙂

Most classic shooting pair up ever, that's for sure, is the Lux Ver 2 also a Black Paint lens, or one of those Half Black Chrome/Half Black Painted ones?

You are right, it a transition model with scalloped focusing ring!!! My understanding is that it is rarer than full black paint one.

"Minimal Panda" M2 w/ Summaron 35mm f3.5, 3rd party vented lenshood, Tom A 'rff' soft release, accessory rewind crank.

My M6 Wetzler Classic with a 40mm Summicron.

Late christmas present: Voigtländer Super-Wide Heliar 15mm f/4.5 Aspherical II VM (the new, rangefinder-coupled version with M-mount), incl. Voigtländer 21mm brightline viewfinder.

What a great lens, and what an enjoyable combination with the 21mm finder on the M8! Never had a lens this wide, the 20mm field-of-view is totally new to me and I'm not quite sure yet how to use it. I hope to be able to take some first pictures tomorrow! (It was raining this afternoon, so I only took some crappy living room snaps ...)

My dream come true...

My dream come true...

Few month ago, it was a dream...
After getting rid of all the digital stuff, it's a dream come true.
No regrets.

Another 'collector black paint toy' here 😛 together with some of my undeveloped film. I need to buy more D-76 and fixer!

Roberto, nice to see that M4 being used.

Thanks Tom! I haven't used any other camera since I got the M4! Only my DSLR to take shots like that one. I couldn't be happier with this camera.
Cheers.

Look Helen, the Gem M4 in ice and -20*C, no batteries, no pain!
