A hint: those little checks you get in the mail finally tempted me to do something...

What do you think I did with that little money?

Hints? GAS attack. :p

Of course, you'll notice the forum on which I posted... :)
 
My first guess is that you stuck a grape up your nose. Am I right?
 
I had grapes last night. Will that explain my drunkenness this morning?

Can you really drink lotsa grape juice and expect it to turn into wine in your belly?

More questions later...

Frank, how did you figure it out? :(

Can you guess what it was?
 
The thought crossed my mind, Joe, but I already have a camcorder that doubles up as a digital camera. And digital scares me...

So, it wasn't digital. In fact, it's kinda luddite... :)
 
Hmhhhh?..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................M3?

Francisco, did you buy Karim's M4-2? I offered to trade him some MF equip for it, but he went with a cash offer - yours?
 
Blank checks, Joe... Financial suicide... But heck, life is short and you can always resell the gear.

Yep... I was foolish, gave in to the beautiful springy days and, under some influence (probably Wagner's... my wife got tickets for the Ring Cycle in Chicago), I wrote one of those "Get your Dream Vacation" checks for a slightly tattered M3 DS.

My sinister plans? Recover it with a nice Cameraleather kit, use it with my MR Leica meter and my 'cron 50, and later decide if I want to keep it or not.

Frank... Karim's Leica wouldn't have needed a new cover, so I'm looking at this as an opportunity to "practice"... without wrecking something that would make me cry. In fact, I think I'd like to get the nice kid-leather cover for one of my M6TTL bodies. But then, that, like getting a collapsible lens, is in the future. But no, it wasn't that M4-2; it really looked seductive, and the price was very right, but I got one for less... and will need some TLC as well.

I'm sometimes too impulsive. Need some time away from my computer... But it's gonna be well spent!

Thanks for bearing with me! :)
 
I for one, would like to see a "before" picture and a "nekkid" picture, as well as the "after" picture.
 
Oh that Canon P we all need.


I knew it was an M3 to match your meter. Congratulations.
 
O.K., I win cause thats what I guessed! What do I get? How about one of those M6's you have, they're just gonna sit on the shelf anyway, you can't use all three at once! :)
