What have you just BOUGHT?

An x-e1 with xf 18-55, bought it for the lens. The kit was €720, lens alone was €570. €150 got me an extra body, battery and charger. Couldn't pass on that.

I hope John Neal does not object to me using his photo, it's the one he used in his
classified ad. This beauty is now in transit to me, so that is why I can not use one of my own.

Here is my new 1933 black paint III w/ nickel Elmar (I am the fourth owner)... it's been a long time waiting for one of these with provenance.

Zeiss Ikonta 524/2

Zeiss Ikonta 524/2

Picked this up from Melton Mowbray Bar Boot last Sunday.
It was market at £50.00.
There was a displaced shutter blade, so I offered him a Tenner.
Got it for £15.00 in the end.
2 halves of shutter were loose, easy fix, took a lot of flooding to get the escapement going again though.
All working nicely now.
It is an uncoupled Rangefinder.
Seems to be working well!
It is a coated lens, few cleaning marks, how would this be with colour film?
(I have a fridge full of out of date colour 120)

I ordered some Think Tank accessories from B&H. Now they've been stuck in Pennsylvania for two days thanks to some "emergency" out of the control of UPS! I fear its a train wreck...
 
Just received a fair condition Moskva 5 in the mail, claimed to have a broken rangefinder.

The shutter button is a little finicky and the advance is rough turning though. Might need to oil it or something.
 
Congrats from the third owner 😉
I've had this beauty for about a year, until I got the chance to buy another one and returned it to John. More photos here (the one you land on and the one before it).
Enjoy the camera. It's a beauty and slick as butter.

I took advantage of the Fuji lens sale and purchased a 27mm pancake lens to use with my X-E1. I am planning to buy the 60mm as well soon...
