What have you just BOUGHT?

A brand new kitchen, garden table and 2 chairs, hangings, several ceiling lights and one large trash bin ... 😎

We are moving to a new place, so menu goes into 'no fun' stuff 😱

And I was THIS close to get a beautiful Toyo VX125 (should have not asked my wife).

But the time will come eventually for some 'real stuff' 🙂

Congrats. 28? GIII? My QL17 says hi.

It's been an expensive week for me. With half a dozen cameras to feed, my 35mm film keeps running out 😀 I purchased 10 Fuji Neopan Acros (only 2 of which were delivered, rest on backorder) and 11 Agfa Precisa / CT Precisa 100 to tide me over until I can source some more Kodak Elite Chrome 100.

Also, ordered a strap this morning. A nice black leather tripod mount model from Gordy's straps. It's going on the Minox 35 GT (Yellow binding to match the yellow shutter - who says you can't be a fashionable photography nerd?) Also planned: adding waaaay more film to the fridge.
 
My first Leica like ltm. A Canon IV S or F or something. My pretty. $75 out the door.

It was a mess. Couldn't even see through the lens it was so fogged, and the slow speeds didn't exist. It was T or B.

But I've been fooling around with her and with a little coaxing, she's back. The Serenar was easy to work on and the shutter just needed a little judicious lighter fluid love. Gentle now. No flooding.

Now I'm about to test the shutter for the dreaded pin holes and capping. We shall see. 🙂

Nikkor 24mm/f2.8

Nikkor 24mm/f2.8

This is the third one I've owned. I promise now to keep this one and not sell it off (again). I stretched a rubber band around the focusing ring for a better "feel". 😀

On my Nikon D60, it has the view angle of a 36mm lens in 35mm format.
 
Rolleiflex 2.8 Planar. I wasn't even remotely intending to buy one either, I just saw a deal that I couldn't pass up. The aggravating thing is that I was planning on buying a new pair of sunglasses and a 35mm slr with that money, so the GAS continues unabated...
 
Several yellow and orange filters (and one 4x ND) to complete the B&W lineup for my two MF Fujis, a rocket blower for my Dad (to clean his turntable stylus), an off-camera flash cord (by Vello for Nikon, inexpensive and excellent quality) and lastly PS-E10. It was on sale and I wanted something that would integrate with Lr4 (which I got as a free PAU from Lr3, also bought on sale... can you see a pattern emerging?) and include the latest version of ACR, which my trusty old CS3 will not 🙁

In other words, nothing to get the pulse racing the way a new body or lens would 😉
 
Just celebrated my 40th and gifted myself with...

a MINT R3A to be used with my 50s, a LN Nikon F3HP and EXC CV 35mm 2.5 Color Skopar to satisfy my 35mm lens addiction.
 
About 8100+ feet of Fuji Eterna 500T film stock 8547. While Photo Engineer will probably disagree that it's of any use from stills, it makes super digital prints from neg. 18 cents per 36!
 
Ordered a pentax km (film) and the 50/1.7 from keh saturday it should be here tomorrow. 🙂 Guess I'll sell off the fed 5b and gsn after I check out the km. The perkeo 1 may go too. 😱
