Nice Kit! Which one of those beauties get used the most? (relatively speaking of course)

 

[Bingley]

That's a very nice kit. You have excellent taste in gear.

 

[FrankS]

I'd say the Hexar gets used most, probably because it is the fastest/easiest to use with built in meter (the CL meter is dead) and exposure automation.

Thanks Steve. This is the distillate of much experimentation.

Nice ... but the Hexar doesn't work for me. I'd be ditching the Hexar and one of the M2s and replacing it with an M6.

 

[back alley]

are you done now?

 

[FrankS]

I think that I am done, Joe. This is my 35mm RF kit.

Nikon is my 35mm SLR kit. Done with it too.

I'm also very happy with my medium format kit.

Just waiting for the right digital camera to be built.

As a beneficiary of your selling, I am enjoying the Canon 85mm I bought from you.

 

[FrankS]

I'm very happy that you are using that lens, Jack. I wasn't. Long lenses in 35mm aren't my thing. When doing formal portraits, I'll go all the way and use my Hasselblad 150.

Thanks Helen. My RF gear is purely for pleasure. Lenses and bodies selected for their character. Modern / clinical results are covered by the Nikon SLR kit.

Frank, this is my kit:

M2 with collapsible 50 Summicron
M2 with 35 Summaron f2.8

What can I say... Great minds think alike? ;-)

Greetings, Ljós

 

[jawarden]

Great cameras, Frank. The gear is part of the fun for sure.

 

[splitimageview]

Nice kaboodle. If you had to pick just one body and one lens...what would it be?

 

[FrankS]

That's a tough question, but the answer would be M2 and colapsible 50 Summicron.
But the next choice would be the Hexar with its 28 framelines and the Canon 28f2.8.
