What have you just BOUGHT?

A GR21 for $700, from Popflash.

Said to be of 100% functionality, but I'm really looking forward to check the LCD panel once it arrived..
 
Fujinar 250 f/4.7 large format lens. It's a single coated tessar-design lens that, from what little I've been able to learn about the Fujinars, was sold for portrait use, probably made between 1965-1975 based on the type of Copal shutter it's in. It's a good portrait fl for 4x5 (roughly 75mm equivalent for 24x36mm sensitive-thingie-chemical-or-digital-of-your-choice). I've only shot a few sheets with it, but I like it. The DOF at portrait distances at f/4.7 are similar to a 75 at f/1.4 for 35mm, and it was only $180!
 
Black M9 from the fine folks at Precision Camera!
A used Canon EOS 1v-HS and a 300/4.0 with 1.4x teleconvertor.
And some Tmax 3200...

Just bought an aftermarket screw on 39mm lens hood for my Summicron 50 late IV.
I hate the built in sliding hood, so much so that I have not used it in 2 years. I have an early IV with the proper clip on lens hood and focussing tab. Now I can leave a 50 on 3 of my 4 bodies! (Stop me before I buy a DR or Rigid for the M3! Please.)
 
Zeiss Ikon Box Tengor. My first 6x9. The one with the cool chrome front and f/9-11-16 exposures. I assume it's a post war 56/2 model.
 
With all this enthusiastic buying going on, I figure the world economy should be safe. Good going! :)
I found a nice used 35/2.8 Biogon-ZM here on RFF, and I'm just waiting for it to come back from DAG with 6-bit coding.
 
Hexanon ltm 35/2 (silver) Happened to find this rare lens on sale in Tokyo while checking in at one of my favorite used camera shops. Could not pass it up since t matches so nicely with my steel grey M9

CV 35/1.4 SC - needed a replacement for the CV 35/1.2 since i don't always need that much speed, or feel like carrying the larger lens.

Avenon 28/3.5 (silver) - Compact 28mm, that is sharp in the corners and does not break the bank. To be used in place of a CV 28/2 when speed is not needed.

So you're who bought that from Fujiya? What was the deal with the 'nameplate' missing?
 
Another Automatic Plaubel Makiflex Body, and nineteen FOBA Combitubes, which will extend the legs of my two FOBA tripods.
 
I think I just bought a Leica CL off eBay. I only think I did, because the seller has given me no indication whatsoever that my payment is received and the camera on the way. I really hate that kind of thing (this is not a high-volume seller). Hopefully it just shows up tomorrow, in good order.

I'm just about done with eBay for this type of purchase. Would much prefer to buy here or on getdpi.com.
