Flowers, wine, and sweet nothings whispered in her ear.

Esoteric.

Esoteric.

Get it to admit that it once owned a Betamax.

Hard question, I rarely get the chance to date a girl not to mention a lens. Flowers seem to be helpfull, I often try to find out which colours are the girls favourites and get a bouquet in those.

To date a Jupiter 8 I'd try gerbera and for a J 12 sunflowers, a japanese lens might be attracted by a blooming cherry tree in bonsay and for a german Leica lens roses should do it.

While Vodka might help with FSU lenses, avoid Schnaps with german lenses, a bottle Ürziger Schwarzlei Kabinett is more like it.

How's this one?

"You don't happen to know what alien life form leaves a green spectral trail and craves sugar water, do you?"

Okay, How About...

Okay, How About...

"I've just started developing, myself."

The problem is with the comma. Or, not. Or, from the same lexicon, and a bit more off-color:

"How long should I leave it in?"

Never mind.

any lens with an aperture ring may be attached to a lens with a bayonet mount.

"Frank is rubbing off on me." Posted by Uncle Bill in the New Camera for Christmas thread, explaining that he wants to get another 50mm lens.

"Looking for a 3rd body"...

 

[JoeFriday]

"want to see something fully exposed?"

 

[JoeFriday]

"how is that screwmount working with that body?"

 

[FrankS]

How about this hockey broadcaster line: He failed to score because he couldn't get it up. And how exactly does one "come out of his own end"?

"He couldn't keep it in."
"They're all having trouble getting it out."

and from the "advantages of triangle split rings" thread ...

"Can you help me get my triangle split ring on?"
