You just have to love the Zeiss Ikon ZM...

I find that using the Zeiss Ikon ZM is always an enjoyable experience.
The photo below was taken at Bodega Bay, California USA using the Zeiss Planar 50mm F2 T* ZM lens and Lomography Berlin Kino 400.

I am currently kicking my self in the bum, that I sold this delightful rig.

An awesome little camera that I have not used since my Rolleiflex 3.5F arrived. Will have to correct that oversight without delay. It just moved up in line to right behind the ESII.

Now, lets see, what have I done with that little Super Triplet Perar 28/4?

I took mine to Saigon with a lot of Kodak Pro Image 100 ready for use. Cheers, OtL

My wife told me not to sell mine as, “You’ll only have to buy it again”

She was right…

Over the years I have learned that there are not many cameras I won't sell if the circumstances are right but I think that little ZM is one of them. That viewfinder is just spectacular.

Concur with all the positive comments on the ZM; I finished putting a roll through it this week, the first film I shot since cataract surgery. In the past I must have used my reading glasses when shooting with it (purchased the body used). I had bifocals with me when shooting this latest roll and found that I had to tilt my glasses up so I could focus using the closeup lens part of my glasses - very cumbersome. Then, on impulse I took a look at the eyepiece and attempted to unscrew what I though could be a screw-in diopter lens; It screwed right out; now I can focus with my normal uncorrected vision, i.e., without glasses.

Nikon diopters will fit on the ZM, I've got a -4.0 on mine. Lately I've been shooting the ZM with a Perar 3.5/35 Super Triplet II that I traded for a 7Artisan lens. Can't make up my mind whether I should keep it or not, already got the Biogon 2.0/35. But I will never sell the ZM!

Your wife's a keeper, just like the ZM! Nothing like having a partner who understands and supports your passion.
