This forum is really bad

Since discovering it I have developed (general), Rangefinder GAS

Before that I had specific GAS – Nikon and Pentax SLRs and their lenses

Since I clicked on this really bad forum I have bought another 2 Leica LTMs and another Leica M, BUT I have also started buying all kinds of stuff, just bought a Oly 35SP, a FED 5, a Perfex whatsoever, a Ricoh thingy and I have started buying filters, lens caps, books and other stuff

How do I stop Rangefinder GAS, my SLR GAS has almost ceased as I just do not have that much time

Oh I forgot just bought a Contax ll and a few weeks ago I bought a Nikon S, plus a couple of Nikon screw thread lenses and their finders

All this stuff was financed by the sale of one of my old BMW motor Bikes

Help, (please)
 
I remember now how it started - I had, (have) Nikon F and F2 GAS - so I ventured to look at a Nikon S - that's how my Rangefinder GAS started and it caused my "old" Leica M to come out which had been relpaced with a Canon A1 and Nikon F3 some 25 years back
 
Stop...please stop

Stop...please stop

You're killing me...
 
Some of the best mechanical devices ever made, that you can hold in your hand, also with the potential to help the user create great art. I don't think there is any reason to try and supress it. And buying a really expensive one doesn't help at all, because then you need the "lesser" ones to compare and contrast.

Some people are into diamonds/jewelry/shoes... I have no idea what that's about.
 
i'm totally agree...i was a Jazz-soul vinyl records addict..with some reflex & MF stuff...but when i join to this forum...and take a bessa from Camera quest...i became a complet Rff addict!!!

i'll have to sell one part of my vinyl collection!:)

More GAS from RFF and not camera related!

My missus just passed her driving test, so I'm now on the lookout for a bike... :)
 
There are worse things than RF GAS. For me, it leveled out at 7 bodies, and my attention has been diverted somewhat by the purchase of a dSLR. Then, there's the Nikon and OM-1 good SLR gear. It's a funny thing; I really don't want to sell much of anything now.

For those who need help with their GAS, I can envision RF GAS Anonymous. They say that all addictions are pretty much the same... yeah, "My name is Mike, and I'm a GASaholic :D
Cheers...

I reckon Rangefinder GAS was really a Russian export drive plot as I have now started to look at Kievs

Eh, you have a Contax II, why Kievs?
I got a Kiev because I can't justify the price of a good/working Contax II :D
