A Retina IIa. I had a IIc and a IIIc a couple of years ago. The IIc was gifted to another forum member and the IIIc went to KEH in a box of stuff in a trade. I'll post in Show me Your Retina when it's back from being CLA'd.

Leica M1 arrived yesterday... I checked it a little bit (as I always do) and the shutter speeds are way off. So I'm not sure if I should send it back or keep it and have it repaired (or CLA'd, as it's called here). I paid less than 300 Euros for it, so it would be still reasonable for a working Leica. On the other side, the seller claimed that the shutter speeds are OK, so my expectations were disappointed a bit. Hard decision...What would you do?

Nikon 135mm f/2.8 Series-E that I got for $20 at a thrift store. Came with a tan and blue Nikon canvas camera bag that I will clean up and store my dad's F4 in.
The Life of a Photograph by Sam Abell, also from a thrift store. A great companion to the videos he has done for B&H. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxoYxZpujbc

New Showcase for Plaubel System by Nokton48, on Flickr
We have new floor to ceiling shelving in the office area of my home, so here is my Plaubel collection, ready for use. Nicely organized behind glass doors to keep it dust free. This keeps me thinking about taking it out and using it! That is up ahead, in a very big way. �� This is not all of it (no way) just the things I want to use all the time. The rest is in my studio in the basement.

300 euros plus around 200 to 300 for cla possibly buys you a good working one model. Difficult to say, I would probably return it.

Found a mint Voigtlaender M 40mm f1.2 at CameraQuest for $200 off list and snapped it up. I plan to use it on my M-10 as well as my Fujifilm X cameras with an adapter.
EDIT 11/8/18:
The lens arrived and it performs very well on my M-10., Aside from some vignetting at F1.2 which mostly clears up by f2, it looks like it will be a nice walkaround lens. It's a sold, heavy little bugger though...

A Rheinmetall-Sömmerda made EXA body from 1955, and a Zeiss Flektogon f2.8 35mm lens to match it.
It's interesting to have a camera made by the same company that made (and makes) heavy artillery...
In fact by the time VEB Rheinmetall made cameras it was a state owned company that made moped motors and office equipment but, hey...😎

It is even harder to refuse a camera for free.
It is impossible to refuse if you get 2 full sets from 2 work mates for free.
Minolta 7000 AF with flash and 2 zooms and Minolta 5000 AF with 2 zooms.
Interesting is that the 7000 came with 35-105 and 100-200 lenses, while the 5000 had the more common pair of 35-70 and 70-210. In addition the 7000 came with the matching flash 🙂

A chromed brass Schneider Munchen Steinheil Quinaron 35mm f2.8 (later ones were black and chrome "zebra" finish). A lovely looking lens (this one like most for Exakta mount) and built like a tank as so many German lenses of this era were. I already have an Exakta to M4/3 adapter (and an M/3 to NEX adapter) so this will get use on both systems. No photos yet. The following images are from the internet.
BTW In case someone wants to know the large rectangular attachment on the side is for the semi automatic aperture stop down mechanism. It is a typically over-engineered German design and much larger than the tiny aperture slider on say an auto Takumar lens. Surprisingly its OK to use and even does not look bad on a modern camera. At least to my eye. (Another one of those "kooky" old lens things)

Dear Peter,
just «Steinheil München» (i.e.: Munich), no Schneider —— completely different companies, but they have in common that both made also lenses for LTM cameras 🙂

2 things for my Tamron 24mm 01BB lens: A 55mm Hoya super multicoated skylight 1b and metal 55mm 'wide angle' lens hood, which doesn't seem to be causing any vignetting, though I've yet to do any photos with it.
