What have you just BOUGHT?

Now, I am saving for a M6 and thus I am buying inexpensive yet great looking stuff. Here is a Yashica Electro 35 GTN that I have bought two days ago:

Pitty that yesterday the white wire at the bottom of the battery chamber had came off. My problem now is with what I could solder it back in place down there.
 
First I have swapped two manual lenses (Zuiko and Rokkor) for a Nikon D3100.
Then I have bought a Nikkor AF-S 18-70 in the "BAY". (To replace the Kit 18-55.)
 
Bought my M4 about 2 months ago after a long while saving, saved up some more, had christmas and my birthday which added to the funds, bought some tickets which turned out to be valuable after the gig sold out, sold them as well and bought a Zeiss Biogon 35mm f2. It won't arrive until end of the month but I can't wait. Its been a long time coming and the poor M4 has just been sat there with no lens to play with.
 
Derk, the seller stated that the shutter is working... So we all know what that means :D

The rotary disk shutter is supposedly very reliable (and more accurate then contax and Leica shutters according to tests done back in the day) so I'm not too worried.

And otherwise it'll be a nice shiny doorstop when I'm done. ;)
 
Just ordered an Epson V700 so that I can start scanning 4x5 film
Also ordered one of theses

Been wanting to buy something like this since I used one during a shoot last year. Love how it allows you to control and focus the light.
 
I uh... "accidentally" bought my first Leica a couple of weeks ago, a nice user M2 body with a CV35/2.5. Enjoying it now :)
 
120 Film - 10 rolls of Pan F 50. A change for me since I use HP5 or TriX most of the time. Now if the rain will let up and the sun will peek through I will try some landscape shots with my recently purchased GSW690III.
 
A Canon 100mm f3.5 in Leica screw mount. Chrome and black with finder and case. A lovely little lens. Now if it will just stop raining so I can go try it out. Joe

PS A Kiev 60 is not a crazy purchase. I once had a Hasselblad 50mm lens and sold it because the Kiev 60 and its East German 50mm was more comfortable to me and quite good enough.
