What have you just BOUGHT?

[stompyq]

Oly epm1. I like the fact that it's smaller than my phone. Possibly might get a pancake lens but the kit zoom seems to be surprisingly nice.

Finally got one!

Beattie Intenscreen for Olympus OM. It's very clean and it does offer a brighter viewfinder.

 

[racoll]

An FD 50/1.4 SSC for my F-1, a Stylus Epic, and another Canon S100 to replace the one I sold 3 months ago and realized I can't live without.

Leica M2. But this morning, I bought 6 boxes of Fuji 4x5 Quickloads.

 

[biomed]

New motherboard, i7 and lots of ram. Daddy needs a computer upgrade! Also some nice metalworking hammers. No new photo gear, although the computer parts will be for photoprocessing.

12 rolls of Ilford FP4 PLUS 125 35mm

At an estate sale today, was shocked to find a pristine Bausch & Lomb Protar VII (convertible 305mm f/7, 485mm f/12.5, 600mm f/12.5) in a perfect Betax No. 5 shutter, with mounting flange (what a relief!), for a whopping $15 (talked them down from $20). Wow! Lots of large format plans for this one...fun, fun, fun!

Is that for a 4x5 or maybe an 8x10?

A Rollei 80mm f/2.8 PQS Planar, a Vivitar flash grip, and a large pile of Yummy Earth organic hot chili lollipops.

 

[dboxer]

Epson RD1S, Leica M8 and Fuji X100.

Gonna do a head to head shoot out. Well, not really, but I'm curious which one will be the keeper.

I owned one of these in a compound. Really great lens on 8x10.

Oh, I rather think I can beat that. Waiting for the Minox B I bought on Friday...

Have you had one before? I bought one and used it very little, so I sold it. That was 30+ years ago. Then Frances wanted one, so I bought her one, and she used it very little. That was 20+ years ago. I'll have to see if the person we sold it to ever used it... Gorgeous little camera, but I never seemed to have occasion to use it.

Cheers,

R.

 

[ruby.monkey]

Might be the same camera, just doing the rounds...

 

[Sejanus.Aelianus]

It's a pure toy purchase. If I get some shots I like, that's a bonus. I've got the reflex finder, tripod cradle and binocular attachment coming as well. With four cassettes of Pan F, I've still got some pennies left out of £100.

I used an EX in the 'eighties but never liked the viewfinder and the build quality didn't impress me either. The results were better than I expected, in technical terms, though.
