what waS your last photography related purchase?

[choiliefan]

Bought an unidentified 5X7 back I'm hoping to adapt to my recently purchased B&J 8X10 Rembrandt camera.
Already have an 8X10 Commercial View but like the 9X9 size lensboard on the Rembrandt.

Photoshop, Lightroom, 1TB Cloud on Sale this weekend for $100.

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1786747-REG/adobe_65321149_creative_cloud_photography_plan.html

The old 20GB subscription for $120 seems to be gone. This is a $240 value.

A Yashica Lynx 14e, cheap from a flea market.
Shutter works great, but rangefinder does nothing. Something to tinker with when the weather is bad.
Got two cameras as a gift from a good friend. A Beier Beirax II (Mod. 1955) 6x9 folder with 4.5x6 mask and an unknown 9x12cm plate camera (see pics) with magazine for 120 roll film.

10 Toyo 4x5 DDs near mint.. ex Japan.

 

[GregY]

Rolleifix tripod plate for Rolleiflex....

Nylon 12 SLS 3d print of a custom made adapter , which will allow me to use my Linhof focusing bellows on my Plaubel peco jr

I sure do love these straight to production, low volume 3d printing websites (xometry).

 

[Andrew O'Neill]

A two pack of 123CRA batteries for the light metre. Batteries are cheaper in Japan than in Canada...

 

[KevinW]

Film. 4 rolls of Rollei Infrared in 120 format and 5 rolls of FP4+ in 35mm.

 

[Cholentpot]

Had a Pentax MZ-3 converted to half-frame. With the 40mm pancake it's a full featured point and shoot that can get you 72+ frames. For half-frame fans its the ultimate.

A roll of Fuji Maxima paper
Also.a 100 foot roll of Delta 100, RA4 chemistry, a Vlads test negative(not sure if it's a gimmick, but neat anyways), a nice Speyside single malt, and some random odds and ends.

 

[Donald Qualls]

a nice Speyside single malt,

I'm a fan of Glendronach. That's the only Speyside I'm familiar with, though.

 

[koraks]

a Vlads test negative

Looks neat

A roll of Fuji Maxima paper

Score!

a nice Speyside single malt

Score score!!

 

[IMoL]

Some LPL steel 35mm reels. They have the prongs similar to Hewes and seem to be easy to load. 99SEK (approx €11) for two, new in box.

Autofocusing with a split screen is a hoot. I've been throwing my collection of K mount lenses on it for giggles. It's amazing what a simple 135mm can do if you double the focal length.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Two memory thumb drives, 256GB each from B&H and at no cost because I won $50 credit on a previous purchase during a sale period.

My go to is Balvenie, Lagavulin is another of my faves. The jury is still out if they improve my photos

 

[Donald Qualls]

I'd bet that it's like pool and darts: your game seems better while you're drinking, but you may not like it as much after you sober up. I did recall I used to get Glengarioch, though. Pretty light flavor, as I recall.

 

[BMbikerider]

A used but very clean Nova 12x16 3 bath colour print processor. They are getting very hard to find in good condition now.

The manufacturers in UK have had designs for a much more improved version for several years, but the unavailability of the materials to make them has been hard to proceed.
I paid £129 for the used one, but the new design is rumoured to be around £800.

My current 12x16 3 bath is still working well, but with age, the acrylic plastic outer case is starting to warp, so I envisage that sooner or later it will start to leak.

I've always found discussions of hard liquor, especially whisky very amusing. I hear people say things like "nutty flavor with a hint of jasmine" but every time I try a sip, all I taste is paint thinner.

 

[Horatio]

Have a FE in black on the way. Recently purchased a fine FM2n from @Acere.

Shows you're not sophisticated. It's actually lacquer thinner with a hint of toluene.
