What have you just BOUGHT?

9695027405_0d1433d9d3_b.jpg

got the summicron 35 8 elements - canada - with reasonably price ;-)
 
$20 shipped for 20 rolls of film- 9 Costco 400 (Superia 400), 9 rolls of Kodak Gold 200, 1 CVS 400 (Fuji again is my guess), and 1 Kodak Max 400. Should be here by Wednesday, but I still have 6 rolls of Superia X-tra 400 and 3 @ 800. Loading up for back to school!

Also got a pack of sixteen 675 zinc-air cells from radioshack on clearance for $4+tax. Output measured on a multimeter at 1.35-1.4V, I've been measuring every day before I go out for the past few days. I doubt I'll use sixteen before they expire (April 2014) but now I have plenty for the Olys. We'll see how the longevity is.
 
Panasonic Lumix GF3 and µ4/3 adapters for Leica M, M39, C-mount and Pentax-110.
Keeping my eyes peeled for an affordable "allround" zoom for the GF3. ;)

Ah, yes, and a Tokina AT-X 4-4.6/28-135 (OM mount) monster. LOL

Wow, how do I get into this deal? I never get given cameras.

Be a warm charming person who is happy to take other people's junk off their hands to help them out ... ];-) I guess this is why my equipment cabinet is such a mess and tangle of weird camera stuff. =8^0

Actually, I have no idea why people give me cameras so frequently. I called my uncle two days ago to wish him a happy birthday and, out of the blue, as he's saying good bye he goes, "Oh yeah, I found a few cameras when I was cleaning out a closet. I'll box them up and ship them to you."

Only the gods know what's going to be in that box ...

Olympus EPL1 & 14-42mm lens. Not the top of the range by any means, but a very usable camera, and it gets me into the micro four thirds CSC scene, and I know how I want to upgrade from here.

Can't wait for the post!
 
A Yashica Lynx 5000... ok, so the shutter sticks at speeds below 1/8th and the meter does sweet nothing at all, even when properly batteried up. I'm not worried. ;)
 
I just bought a new light meter - this time a Gossen DigiPro, as I loathe the side mounted buttons on the otherwise nice and functional Seconic, I use.

I hope, the Gossen's display is better readable in low light than the Seconic's too.

As shipping costs were pretty tall on the light meter alone, I added filters to top off the package.
 
Was on the local auction site here in New Zealand and I was the third person to view it ... I was so shocked I just hit the Buy Now !

Way better than a Thrift Store Leica. ;]
 
Zorki-4 with Jupiter-8 50/2, in box. Really happy with it. Previously I used a FED 2 & 3, which I do like, but every knob and button feels 'unprecise', and also I felt I wanted 1/1000 speed.

Had to use some cleaning solvent on the shutter mechanism to get it working. Now it's smooth as eggs. Now the owner need to train his eye and sunny 16.
