What have you just BOUGHT?

A really brassed MX for £60:)


Very nice, Mike... and an excellent deal at that price! I paid around twice that for mine (although it did include a 50mm f/1.7, so not too bad).

Mine also has considerable brassing - which was certainly among the reasons that I chose that particular example. :)

I've never owned (or even seen) an LX, but from what I've read, it certainly seems to be an excellent camera. I must say, though, that the MX really hits the spot for me, due to its solid simplicity. Just SO good.

In addition to the 50mm f/1.7, I own the 135mm, and a 28mm........ but the mention of your 40mm does spark a certain amount of 'gear envy'. ;) :D

And even shoot ‘Color’. !!!
 
A sequence of silly things has ended up with me buying a Mamiya Press 23 Super with both roll film and sheet film backs as well as the Sekor 50mm f/6.3 lens. It's a beautiful old beast of a camera: I've got a roll of film loaded and a couple of exposures made with it. I need to order some 6x9 sheet film too.

Funny stuff. :)

Just purchased a 100mm f3.5 MC Rokkor telephoto lens. Minolta did not make very many of these. They were made between 1969-1970.
 
Few days ago I got a brassed black Konica Autoreflex T3n with Konica Hexanon 50mm f/1.7 and a Cosina Compact 35e in fair condition. I hope I can rescue the Cosina. The Konica should work well even if it looks a little bit like a rat-camera. :D
 
A Graflex Anniversary Speed Graphic used by the USAAF in WW2 (under the military designation Ground Camera C-3). It was made in 1944 without chrome, as every wartime Graflex.

Lovely wartime SG.
But the all black trim wasn't introduced until 1943 ;)

A Clarus MS-35 arrived two days ago. Took about an hour to get cleaned up and running properly

Just few hours ago I looked for lenses for this Konica above.
Found a set of a 135mm and 28mm, fortunately at one lens the lens cap is a Autoreflex TC... both 2 lenses and the TC for all together 40 Euros.

Couldn't say no. :rolleyes:
 
1200 feet of Kodak 4X in 16mm. Another 2000 feet may be on the way after a clip test.
Oh yeah, I guess I went a little wild... There's also an Angenieux 25mm f/.95 on the way and I snagged a 25-50mm f/4 from the local brick and mortar shop.

Snagged a decent deal on a Ricoh 35R (MF-1)

I have been interested to try this camera for a while now and I figure they are not getting any cheaper.

Coming from Europe so I have some time to forget about it. haha

Think I am done buying cameras for a while. Time for more selling instead!
 
A red metabones Sony E to Nikon F adapter and a freshly cleaned 55 2.8 Micro-Nikkor Ai-S for my camera scanning set up.
