What have you just BOUGHT?

I bought a Nikon 52mm centre-pinch lens cap for my AIS 50mm f1.4.

A strap for my Ferrania Elioflex camera-'cos I'm not the octopus I'd need to be to hold the accessory rangefinder, light meter and camera all at once.

A strap for my Praktica FX2 that's long enough to use the camera at waist-level.

A Hoya super multicoated 55mm skylight 1b filter that will go on a Pentacon Electric 29mm lens. Hopefully the one I've bought from ebay will good.
 
I've discovered the Kodak Retinas, and bought a Retina II model 142 and a Retina IIa model 016:

a polaroid back fo my Holga 120, its designed for impatient lomographers who cannot wait to get their really blurred bad photographs back, they get them in an instant:D
 
I bought a 55mm thread wide-angle lens hood for a pentacon electric 29mm lens.

(Even though it's the same thread size as a lens hood I bought for my Tamron 24mm 01BB and it's the same depth, it's also smaller so it seems more suited for the slightly longer focal length.)

The inside of the front does seem a little less than 'Matt' black though. I'll have to find some proper Matt black paint.
 
Just received my Schneider-Kreuznach Xenogon 35mm Robot lens back from repair. I bought it a few months ago but never got to use it as the aperture blades were dislodged due to oil, so I sent it away straight away.

Heart breaking

Heart breaking

A Zeiss Sonnar F2 from the fleabay that however is so full of grease I can cry.


You can see the drop of grease or oil. Actually I think it is a (a tear) from the lens crying too from such a treatment. The seller has not responded to my sorrows yet.

I now tend to trust the sellers less, even if they have a good "rep" on the market.
