I really need to buy a new toy for this day. Or ON the day, who will help me? I know bugger all about what to buy.
Larky,
A friend gave me a nice looking olympus 35 dc which I am allowed to sell at a reasonable price.
If you want I'll bring it along.
There is a Rolleiflex GX for sale for a rather unreasonable price 😀 and a rolleiflex 6008 pro for a pittance (for a given value of pittance)
I know I shouldn't feed the troll but come on, these types always amaze me! I've rather enjoyed taking a quick squiz at the websites, galleries and on-line folios of some of the names on the list for this weekend. Apart from some of those whose pictures I've known about for ages there are plenty more that I'm intrigued to meet having ploughed through their sites. Perhaps he too was concerned about lugging a DSLR around and worried about feeling out of place.
Speaking of which, as I'm trying to cadge a bed on Sunday night ready for a job on Monday morning it looks like I may well be lugging some DSLR kit around with me...unless anyone knows of a safe and sound place to deposit it for a day. Otherwise I'd be able to offer Larky all sorts of juicy OM kit if he wants a new toy 😀
Thanks for the updates Kully, see you all on Sunday!
If you had an OM-3 I'd offer you a stay at mine, as long as you don't mind the burglars. 😀
PS Weird, there are none of the 'what shall I bring?' posts? ;-)
If it was the SP I'd jump, looking for something fully manual if possible 🙂 But thanks for noticing my request. 🙂
Larky, I'll sell you a Leica IIIa, Summitar and CV 50mm 1:1 finder for £230.
Let me know if you want it via PM, otherwise feck off highjacking this thread you gear loving bugger ;-)
kully is going to come out of this weekend as a rich man, all fancy with white fedora, ivory walking cane and all!
We're guaranteed at least one character to photograph at least 😀

I was quite concerned because I was turning up with a DSLR and I can't swim very well.
Problem solved because I bought myself a rangefinder birthday present today.
Well, the story does not end there, does it ? What did you buy ?
