10 rolls of Neopan SS arrived in the mail today, and then I stumbled upon a Leica M5 with 35mm and 50mm Summicrons and a 90mm Elmarit, except I have to return it soon

I bought a lovely black M6 TTL together with a new Voigtlander 35mm F1.4 Nokton Classic from Ffordes on Monday. They were delivered on Tuesday and i'll shoot my first roll at the weekend. Can't wait. I have been thinking about a Leica M for a long time!

I heard the nokton classic sc is a wonderful performer.. Congrats!

Yashica 35 (needs repair)

Yashica 35 (needs repair)

I just bought a Yashica 35 (the first Yashica camera in the combined Yashica/Nicca company) in extremely rough shape. I mean really rough condition.
Who do you guys recommend to do a proper CLA, and clean up the lens (looks like separation issues) in USA or Canada?

Yes, good eye!

Although it goes unused with my iPhone in its stead... such is the life of the lonely corded phone in the newsroom

Richard Dunkley's DVD "The Silver Footprint" - a brief biog of master printer Robin Bell, includes additional technical notes from the printer himself.

Excellent.

In addition to the user Yashica 35 I just bought, I also purchased a Yashica D, a Sunpak 544, 20 rolls of 135-36 Ilford HP5+, and a Tamrac Velocity 9 bag. All of them very usable.

On my way home from a meeting all day in Glendale I stopped by Samy's Camera in Pasadena and bought 20 rolls of Fuji Acros 100 in 120 format...
It was on my way home...I was in the area already...soooo I figure I saved money in the long run...that's my story and I'm sticking to it...

Minolta srT 102 with 58mm f/1.4 lens, another 58mm f/1.4 lens, and a 35mm f/2.8 Rokkor lens..

Got my eye on a Minolta Autocord............

I found a Soligor 35mm f/2.8 in a box with cameras on a car boot sale today. It is a M42 mount, perfect for my Zenit 12XP. Total value £0.20. Let's see how it performs....

 

[Mablo]

"Paper Negative Photography" from Blurb. I'm pretty excited to get started with paper negatives with my 4x5 camera.

Another recent addition to my arsenal is a Pentax 645 with a 55mm/2.8 Takumar lens. This is a heavy clunker from the -80's. I love it.

 

[Kent]

Holga 120 and 5 rolls of Kodak Portra 160NC.

Last night, en route to a restaurant, I stopped by a local bookstore. There I picked up a copy of Jonathan Eastland's "Leica M Compendium" for a mere 1,000 yen. This morning, I find that this book is sold on Amazon for over US$200! Why is this book so expensive on Amazon?

Olympus OM2 with winder, T20, T32 flashguns, TTL shoe and cord, random filters etc. and a Tamron adaptall lens. Needs light seals and I had to pay £30 for it, but the Tamron adaptor will net me some money back
