What have you just BOUGHT?

[Pál_K]

My newest rule: I won't buy a camera unless I've made at least 36 photos with the one I've previously bought (unless, of course, I just have to have it) .

A lens hood for my Yashica-Mat (and a 3kg jar of liquorice torpedoes).

A Kodak 50mm f/1.6 Cine-Anastigmat. For a fantastic price. It had a tiny amount of fungus and the whole thing needed to be cleaned and lubed. Finished that today and now I have an amazing fast portrait lens for my 16mm cameras, both Kodak Model K as well as Filmos.
Oh yeah, an Angenieux 10mm f/1.8 retrofocus is on the way too. Hopefully that fits on the turret with the 25mm f/1.4 Ektar.

A nice lady was looking for a good home for her father's cameras;
-Agfa Billy Record
-K.W. Etui in 6x9 with a Tessar lens
-Unknown 9x12 with "Unofocal" Doppel-Anastigmat
An extinction meter was included in the set as well.

And she also gave me a book about the history of the local waterways.

I cleaned the lenses on all the cameras and freed up the shutter on the Agfa. Also found that one of my Rollex Roll film Backs fits on the 9x12.

Grey Leica M-E (Typ 220) that has had a replacement sensor and Leica service at some time. It's the only way I'm going to shoot rangefinders again.

122m (400ft) bulk roll of Orwo N75 (successor of N74).

Reasonably happy with mine, with a similar career, that I bought in 2016. But it still doesn't quite compare to my first love, the Epson R-D1 though.

Nice rule, I will try to obey it. But lately I'm specially fond of large format cameras, which most of the time are bulkier and more expensive than 35mm, and film holders generally have only 1 or 2 sheets. Damn!!!

 

[Man/machine]

Nope, Sorry. This place ain't the place to be if you want help to stop buying cameras. Take me for example, I had a Nikon F301 and a Ricoh 500GX and wasn't looking to get any more. I now have 13 cameras, plus lenses, lens hoods, filters and bags that I didn't know I was going to buy when I joined. And do you know what? There wasn't one single word of sympathy from anyone here! lol.

Thanks for your support,on my way to bankrupt...(and it's a highway)

i recently bought a new fuji 10-24 lens, ordered the 16-80, hoping it will be available for pick up on thursday and just 2 minutes ago ordered a domke 803 black canvas bag...

U can haz Grafmatics!

I bought this NIB a few years ago (an amazing find). It's intended for my Pacemaker Speed Graphic. I don't think it'd look proper on my Sinar F. I've got more well-used Grafmatics to go through before touching this one.

I bought an Ensign Selfix 20 model 5, with f4.5 Ensar lens in a Compur shutter, and leather case for £31 +£4.99 P+P. After a bit of brown boot polish on the case, black boot polish on the leather of the body and lens cleaning fluid on the glass and metal surfaces it looks about 20 years old rather than 80 years old.

Unfortunately the shutter almost gets stuck half-way when fired on 1 second and 1/2 second and is slow on 1/5 and 1/10, possibly also on 1/25 but I'm hoping that it's just lack of use. If not but it gives good results I may get it serviced.

I'll add pics when I've found a way of posting them without the risk of mucky adverts showing up.

EDIT:

I've just added a pic to this post, but I wanted to also put it in the "show us your 120 folder" thread and not only can't I add it to that one, it's gone from this one. It was below the kb and pixel sizes, I did it using the "Manage Attachments" button and "Opened the file" and "uploaded it", so I must be doing something wrong.
