what you want RIGHT NOW

Time, just more time to get things (including photography) done.

I always have lots more stuff I want (e.g. 75/2 'Cron), but I really do not need it. I have enough great stuff, more than I can use, what I need is time.

Knowledge and an artistic eye. I have plenty of nice cameras. I don't lust for a Leica, just for the ability to make people think that I used one to take my photos.....
 
Well, what do I want right now? Since you asked:
One Leica MP black paint finish, .72 finder

35, 50 and 75 Summicrons.

One well used Domke bag to store it all in.

that is the easy part. Now for the tough:
Someone to start making Agfa APX 100 and 400 film, I don't care if its under another name. Just get the recipe and start cranking the stuff out because the Agfa branded stuff is starting to dwindle.

Punk is still around, just not in NY (and honestly, I can't think of any decent NY bands in recent years). The best bands have always been from Berkeley, Ca and Gainesville, Fl anyways.

Ouch, I care to disagree!

Good riddance to CBGB though. As much as it did for us in the 70s and 80s, it's been mostly garbage for years now.

Plus, I'm sure you can still get the shirts from American Eagle & Urban Outfitters.
 
have to agree, pretty much anything after 78, 79 was pretty bad at CBGB. The only good punk after the 70's was some so cal stuff in the 80's....

Oh, no, the shirts (!) Man, they're everywhere, aren't they? (In the interest of full disclosure, I've already retired mine, as it's fairly full of holes. Eh; forget you heard that.)

As for the worth of the place, it's probably debatable. I can't comment directly on the music scene there, but I've heard many differing opinions. Matt, you're definitely not alone in your opinion.

Time to pull out the headphones and sort through my collection...whilst I learn more about B&W developing techniques.

What you want RIGHT NOW...

What you want RIGHT NOW...

-- Dinner!

-- Photography-sympathetic girlfriend.

-- 600 square feet of studio space with nice natural light.

-- Couple of weekends when all my dancer friends aren't busy and can come in and do photo shoots.

-- Dessert!


I'm pretty sure I can swing #s 1 and 5. The rest are in the realm of fantasy.





[Okay, I thought of one more thing I want right now: a Mola Mantti beauty dish. That's not gonna happen either...]

Well let's see?

I would love an MP in Chrome, a 2.8/28, a 2/35, a 2/90 for Rangefinder stuff.

I wish Nikon would launch a product on time for once.:rolleyes:

I would love to get enough photography jobs to be able to quit my "Day Job"

That's about it for now.
 
Once in a blue moon, I start to think about an MP, but I don't really know what it adds over an M3 (other than a meter and $1,500), so the mood passes.

All I'd really like at the moment is a good LTM 35mm for a Canon P- casually watching the classifieds, photo.net and ebay for one.

Pretty sure one will come along soon - I have the power to make stuff appear. This week, I sorta thought I would like a couple more softreleases and some showed up on photo.net. I have occasionally thought about adding a MR-4 meter and one showed up here yesterday.
 
i want the brit comedy, 'couples' to come back.

that was the funniest show...ever!

well mostly...

i'm also getting the itch for a digital slr.

I want the Bessa L + 15mm Super Heliar. Want it for sure. I have...things...I could trade.


Anyone got the RF645 but no 100mm? If you have a bessa/15mm setup, let me know. Maybe we can swap for a month (december) so I can use the 15mm in Turkey
 
I desperately want...A pre-aspherical Summicron 35
But since they are way overpriced I finally pulled the trigger on a CV Ultron.
I would really like...a complete wet darkroom with Focomat enlarger.
M8
Maybe new Bessa R4M
To own the CV 21 instead of renting it all the time.
 
To sell my Scan Dual III for a 28/2.8 AI Nikkor to go on my Nikon FE. Oh, and for the local grocery stores to start carrying Kodak Pro Ultra Color again. I just realized that I really do LIKE that film. I've said I don't like it, but I think I must have been on something at the time.
 
Chrome MP, .85 VF cuz I'll never use a 28mm enough to justify the .72.....
Oh, and a Bluejays World Series, Leafs Stanley Cup, Bills Superbowl, and Tigercats Grey Cup in the same year.....easy.
