I just know I'm going to get hammered for saying this, but I don't understand why everyone posts pictures of their cameras. Everyone here knows what a S2 or whatever looks like, and truly, because they're all in very nice condition, they all look the same.
For about a pico-second I actually thought of taking one of these very nice staged close-ups and posting it, but then I reconsidered. Why bother? It's only a run of the mill chrome S3, something everyone here has seen a zillion times, so it's no big deal. And yes, I do love my camera. It's great for taking pictures.

Wouldn't expect any other type of reply from you, Robert. You have, afterall, made the same point on numerous occassions 
Taking interesting quality photos of equipment is a skill in itself, and I can appreciate it, when its well done. I enjoy these threads, just like I enjoy other photo threads.
Ok, so you're not into gear photos ..... so maybe you could post some pictures you've taken with your S3 sometime. I'd like to see some someday
I have made my feelings on collecting known before. And they haven't changed. but I'm not inclined to get into that again. Nobody wins that arguement. So collect away, if that's what makes you happy. And I'll just use my cameras to take photos.
I've got two shots made with the CV 21 posted in my gallery here, if you're interested. I've got others not yet scanned which I'll post when I do.
Also, you can see more if my work almost all done with SLRs at

I'd love to hear your comments on some of those photos.
regards,
Robert

Duh, which is why I made the comment in this thread.....
No Kiu, I'm not absolutely certain 100% about that. So what? If a stranger or tyro shows up and says, "I've never seen an SXYZ", someone will tell them where to look or post a picture.
Post pictures, or not as you like. Whatever makes you happy. All I said is I don't get it. Nothing more.
You can see a shot of an S3M at Steve Gandy's site in the classic camera profiles.

Hi Robert
I love my Nikon gears because they are so beautiful and charming. Also I'm fond of taking photos with them. (actually, todays I'm using my RF quiptment more than my DSLR!) You can see my photos just click the link which placed at the bottom of my post.
I want to take photos of my Nikon gears before they're worn out and had some dings or dents by using. And some people want to see Nikon rangefinder lenses and bodies with qaullity photos, especially Who just entered Nikon Rangfinder's world. (including me~)
And...Sorry for my poor English, :bang: I hope you understand my opinion.

First time posting in this forum. I spend alot of time ( too much ) at fm.com. Lots of great looking cameras and I like to look at them! So, before I share a pic of my newly acquired S2, I got a dumb question--I'm a RF newbie. Is the lens cap for the 5cm 1.4 43mm? Anyway, I love the way the S2 feels. Much nice feel than my D300!

Yes, the filter size is 43mm, so is the cap.
Although the lens you have on your S2 is actually from a Nikon S!

Thanx alot on the filter size thing. The S 50mm will have to do for now--how did you know it was a S version? I've already put a roll through it using sunny 16 rule. I have a Voigtlanger VC II coming. I see the slope is getting slippery!

What I don't understand is how someone who doesn't understand why everyone posts pictures of there cameras made it through 78 posts of pictures before making that comment. You must like looking at them.
