I had thought Adox were no longer producing MCC 110?

So did I, but I needed to get some other bits, and over the weekend I checked ad the Adox was down on the Firstcall site as temperioaly unavailable in the sizes they stock, when I checked today all their sizs are back in stock, when I asked them they tokd a fresh order got in this morning, so there must be some around, at least over here, I added a couple of boxes of 50 sheets just in case,could be that they still have some in limited sizes,

Never envisioned owning one of these - however I saw a sale notice recently and the price was about half the asking price elsewhere.
Upon inquiry, the camera has only done 20,000 clicks since new, and is still in good shape.
The original owner was a careful professional who only used it for slide film.
Pretty chuffed to have found this one

That was my first medium format SLR. I sold mine to a friend, terrific camera. I had a 45-90mm zoom, but I used the standard lens the most. The grip is great.

Arkay manual processor from the mid 80's. Holds 4 3.5 gallon tanks or 9 1 gallon tanks. I have all the tanks from years of scrounging. The temperature control has a pump, warm water in at the bottom out at the top. I ran it up to 38°C today, works great. Mostly fits my museum part of my horde .

A replacement printer for my Epson P600. It has been an absolute disaster since I bought it. I replaced it with a Canon Pixma10s. Superb prints straight out of the box with little adjustment and the inks appear to be cheaper than Epsons own. Well worth the money, but it is VERY heavy!

just received a 75mm 2.8 nikkor p lens for my bronica s2a. the one that came with it had a lot of oil on blades and was stuck open.bought another so i could take this one apart to clean them up.
got the lens from KEH listed as ugly ,but it is mint condition with a scratch mark on the inner barrel where it mounts.i would have never called it ugly.

30 more rolls of Agfa Copex Rapid 120 (this more or less cleans out Macodirect's stock, and will bring my stash to a respectable 80 odd rolls, so I'll probably stop there)

More film (Adox Silvermax, Bergger 400) and Perceptol developer. I think 64-ish will probably be a more realistic rating for the Silvermax than box speed.

I've never owned a Minolta, except for the Autocord. I was at a local dealer, and their counterman mentioned how much he liked the X-700. They didn't have any in stock, nor on their eBay site, so I started a search; only looking for a body and 50mm lens. Another local dealer had this one on his eBay site, and I made him an offer. He accepted, and I received it yesterday. This one is in mint condition, no scratches or mars of any type, and with a 50mm f/1.7 lens. I like its weight, and the auto features such as aperture preferred mode. I have a couple of Vivitar wide angle lenses in TX mount; I found them on eBay. Seems like a fine "walk around" camera, like my Pentaxes, Nikon FE and Canon AE-1 Program.

Two Kodak Control F, -10c to 110c Thermometers in their original tubes in great shape. I have been looking for a good mercury reference thermometer and now I have one and another to give to a friend for his darkroom.
