What have you just BOUGHT?

[Stavrogin]

Olympus XA, new in box, $70. 🙂

 

[skucera]

Stavrogin, you can answer a question from an Olympus XA thread last year, since your camera was new in its box. What color is your rangefinder patch?

Thanks,
Scott

A 35mm Color Skopar C in LTM.
I'm already lusting after the 21mm f/4.

Does this ever end?

I don't know if it'll ever end, but it will taper off sharply at some point.

Most of a large format set up:
BW chemistry, a box of HP 5+, a daylight tank for 4x5, 5 Fidelity film holders, a couple of lens boards, and a lens to start out with--a 135mm Raptar.

Oh, and an Intrepid 4x5 camera.🙂
This is the first brand new film camera I've bought in a very long time. I think the last new camera I bought was the Bessa R that I bought from Stephen. Woo hoo!

I need a few other things still but the lead time for the intrepid is stated on their website as "six weeks" 🙂bang🙂 so I've got some time to pick up a few more things: changing bag or tent, a heavier duty tripod than the compact Velbon I have now, and, possibly, a better light meter.

I'm not sure if this as a 'thing I bought this week', but I have received a 30mm skylight filter from SRB, which they sent to me as a replacement for the 'cloudy substance' sky light filter I mentioned in a previous post. They did this without being asked and without me having to order/pay for a new one and send the old one back to get a refund. I will be sending the first filter back in case they can examine it and learn something from it.

Now I'm confused. I recently bought a metal 30mm lens hood, and earlier today I bought a metal 37mm lens hood.

What is confusing me is the fact that 'shading' part of the 30mm hood has a diameter of about 46mm, but the 'shading' part of the 37mm hood
has a diameter of only about 41mm!

I don't believe either of them was advertised as being for wide-angle lenses.

Sony Alpha 7 II

Yes, I know, but I just couldn't help it. It was sold by a good friend and very nice and reliable person for a fair price and it came with the TechPro AF adapter fo Leica M lenses. "Resistance is futile!" And so it was...

For what it's worth I wouldn't have been able to resist either.

Yesterday, I went to Dominion Camera for their customer appreciation day. I got three nice used bags, some negative preservers, a vintage Leica handbook, cap keepers, and film. I did NOT get a Bessa L and 15mm f/4.5 Voigtlander lens with finder combo, nor a Canon 50/1.2 LTM, nor a Pentax 50mm f/1.2 with internal dust (and unfortunately fungus) for a discount price. I resisted.

My first large format kit: a used Shen Hao HZX-45, 3 lenses (Fujinon 90/8, Fujinon 150/6.3, and Rodenstock 210/6.8), and a Manfrotto tripod.

I was very pleased with the extremely knowledgeable service and reasonable pricing from CatLABS, now my favorite camera store in Boston.

Added the Fuji X100T today. Got the case and hood too. The hood unfortunately is silver and not black. Gonna sell my original X100 next I reckon.
