I came across an auction that ended at a very strange time, 5am EST, so I ended up as the only bidder on a Bronica SQ/SQ-A package. 😀
1 Bronica SQ w/80mm, 120 back, Prism, Rapid Winder
1 Bronica SQ-A w/80mm, 220 back, Rapid Winder
1 40mm f/4 lens + extra 220 back
Time to buy more 120 film.
I also got a 35/2 LTM.. strangely after some tinkering (taking apart) the Canon S II seems to be working again. Time to decide whether or not it deserves some shutter curtains 🙂
The Doesburg Photographica Market Haul:
2 Zeiss Ikon Baby Box cameras, 1931 and 1934 models.
1 vintage 40cm release cable
1 Rada roll film back for my Plaubel Makina
Fuji GA645: because "medium format point and shoot" became a siren song (and because the best shots with my Contax G and Hexar AF are precisely the sort of street/people shots I want to achieve in MF).
[And in a different field, a Tascam DP 24 multitrack desk studio...]
A truly nearly mint and very rare late 1945 "Stepper" Leica IIIC and one really kickass great shooting RARE "coated" 1950 Leitz Elmar f3.5/50mm lens *tested on my Leica M8, WITH AMAZING RESULTS!*
(which I might sell if anyone's interested?) all came from a estate sale of a WW2 veteran. (some intense camera porn coming featuring this camera soon!)
early Christmas present from my wife (she thought I had better see it before she bought it) Ansco 8X10, two lenses, five film holders, 5X7 back, wood tripod, and case. Just need some film and a bigger tank for my Jobo and I am ready to go. ( I was certainly surprised)
I obtained several things recently. Some via trade and some purchased for not much:
Konica I- working, but was listed non-working;
Tanack IV-S with 50/2 Tanar and 35/2.8 W Tanar w/case and viewfinder - camera is gummed up, lenses had fungi, that cleaned up nicely;
35/2 Hexanon AR;
35/2 S-M-C Takumar.
