What is in your "Buy List"?

Why lament gear talk? Some enjoy it and participation is never mandatory.

I'd like a Leica. An M3 would be nice, or a IIIx with a Summitar. Ironically, I can't afford either as the camera store I used to work at was forced to lay off their part time employees (ie, me). If only we had bought more gear!😉
 
75 lux
50mm Summilux ASPH
35mm biogon
21mm color skopar


Probably not both luxes. Still debating 75mm Cron vs Lux vs Summarit(purely for the value)

I've just been in a period of testing out lenses and different focal lengths and lens signatures, and for the time being, my only lens is a DR summicron.
 
Don't quite have the funds, but One, and I do mean one of the following: Either M5, M6, M6ttl, M7.

Now to sell more stuff I don't need anymore.
 
I'm pretty content with my equipment right now and have been for a while. I think the only thing I'm seriously considering is some more flashes and remote triggers for wedding work.

I was considering getting a SWC or SWC/M, but I'm having a lot of trouble justifying the price for a camera i'm not completely sold on.

If I can sell my 6x17 roll film back (for 4x5 cameras), I'll replace it with a Gaoersi 6x17 camera.

Good answer, Ash! I could stand to offload some gear too, but generally I'm pretty content. Well, except I have covetous eyes for the Leica S2... or maybe the Pentax 645D for which I already have lenses... Unaffordable anyway. 😱
 
24 Lux used. Waiting for one to pop up at a decent price (might have to wait for a while though). I'll probably need to sell a few lenses to fund it.
 
Are you sure you guys put the buy list not wish list? 🙂 I feel bad that I started that thread now...M9, super angulon, 75mm lux, zeiss...things that I can never afford haha I am kidding, I am pretty content what I have..

I wish we could swap the things between members to try different gear 🙂
 
Realistically, I would be completely satisfied with my Leica M4 and my soon-to-arrive 35mm Summicron Version 3 - but of course, it's human nature to want more than we already have. In that case, I'd love a 50mm Dual-Range Summicron and a CV 25mm f4 to round out my kit.

I'd also love to acquire some Medium Format cameras, namely a Hasselblad 500CM/501CM and a Rolleiflex 2.8E.
 
There's always more stuff to buy, but I'll whittle it down to just the immediate stuff I'd like.

Zeiss ZM 50mm Planar and 35mm Biogon
Bessa R3M
A full darkroom setup
Space to set up a dark room (hard to "buy" this, but it's a key component of the previouse item)
 
I've a short list of stuff I will get this year:
CV 15mm in LTM
Jupiter 12
And a new laptop. Likely the Asus UL30vt-A1.
Not counting the ongoing film purchasing.

A couple of lenses in Nikon F mount .... I seriously want a Zeiss 35mm in ZF and a 105mm portrait lens in AIS Nikkor.

I'd also like to stock up a little on some more film ... 4x5 (thinking of trying some Era) and some 100ft rolls of Legacy Pro and maybe some Arista Premium!

Keith,
if you are after the 105 for the D700 I've tried both AI and AIS and found the older AI better for more accurate focus because of the longer focus throw,
