I have here two of my current favorite lenses and cameras for daily use. One is a mint Leica M3 with an equally mint Summicron 50/2 (first version rigid). The other is a Zeiss 5cm/2 in LTM mounted on a Bessa T with Leitz finder. Maybe you can also post your two beauties here.

The M3 is used less often than the Bessa T, and I always use with its leather case, so maybe calling it "daily use" is incorrect. I use both often.

Hmm . . . I can't think of anything to rhyme with Biogon.

Brian: So you like the Zeiss/Bessa T combination? I don't know if the pic shows it, but the lens is very clean as if it is newly made.

Here is another pic of the Zeiss lens on the T.

I wish I were handy as you; I'm looking at *two* sorry-looking LTM lenses (for parts) that, if I had the skills (and tools), I'd convert either a Contax mount or Voigtlaender (Prominent) mount lens to LTM.Brian Sweeney said:

LOL That's too good.
(Raid, You started with a Zeiss and a Leitz, hence my lame attempt at humor.)

How much does your Bessa T 101 cost, if I may ask? It looks cool. I also heard many good things about the Heliar lens.
