What have I done?

I like the results of my I-61 L/D better than those of the I-26. But I like neither very much and definitely prefer my J-8. But this is just me, of course. 🙂
 
Get her both 🙂. I enjoy both lenses.

How cool is it that she wants to have a FEd like the Old Man? Very cool indeed. Isn't it great that we can warp our kids?
 
I should have mentioned that it comes with an I-26. I will probably let her keep the I-26. Unless she want's to buy her own J8, off course. Actually, I have an extra J8 but I took it apart and haven't been able to get it back together again. It's an old chrome one (no tab) with cleaning marks. Maybe I will try to get it back together again.
 
Yer not gonna see a whole lot of young women walking around with a FED 2.

Talk about a pick-up line. So you're walking down the street and here comes a babe with a FED-2. You step in front of her, point to the camera, and say, "FED-2, eh? With the original FED 50/3.5? You must know what you're doing."

She's gotta say something. It might be, "Yeah, buddy, I know what I'm doing, and I ain't doing it with you."

Or, it might something like, "Wow, this is really awesome! Let's go have a drink and talk ruskie junk."

Or not.
 
What I want to know is- which strap she would choose?

I have an extra 61l/d... BTW. The glass is clean, the focus ring is stiff. Nudge nudge. Wink wink.

Comes with lens cap and thread cap. Nudge. I'll throw in a body cap, aluminum. Wink. Trade maybe? Nudge wink.

Then too, the FED2 equipped with the I-26 is a perfect bludgeon. Very capable of dispatching mashers.

That might explain why so many I-26 lenses have dinged filter rings. 😉
 
Black leather with red thread. PM your address again. I'll get it the I-61 out Thursday.

This will go with the FED3. I'm working on a way to attach the strap. I will probably attach a strap lug.
