What have you just BOUGHT?

In fact a rangefinder: Minolta AL. Heavy thing with first serious roll of Fomapan creative in it now.

Oh, and an Olympus Pen-EE half-frame.

Oh, and a Yashica Minister (but that was actually swapped with a Trip 35, and it was restoration item so perhaps it does not count?).

Yes, that would be all for now. Signing off. 73.
 
Only problem is that it is not the picture I wanted to upload. The "new Flickr" has different way to upload and I can't figure how!
OK, so it is a "descriptive" narration of the picture. Swap Meet yesterday. Picked up a black Nikon F with the F36 Motor (no battery pack - but one is coming) as well as strange Nikon Microscope head with built in shutter. Most likely another paper weight - but for $40 cad - it has more mechanical things in it than I have figured out/

I had hopes that you got a Nikon tattoo! 😀
 
Fuji Instax printer. This little thing is so fun to use! The major plus over the Instax cameras (got the Neo Classic too) is that you pretty much know what the end result is going to be so you don't waste any film.
There still is a special magic to watching the image appear before your eyes.
 
Received a Minoltina P on an ebay buy - supposed to work - well kind of. First the aperture would not move but the shutter made noise. Then the aperture started to move with a little Zippo and the shutter stuck. After several hours - this little machine is overhauled. Found some on line posts to help...a little. The shutter has continuous mechanical speeds from 1/250 to 1/30. The focus is by category, estimation and focus down to 2.6 feet. With a 38mm f2.8 this little beauty should be some fun. The shutter is solidly made. When I figure out how to post a picture I will put it up. 🙂
