what waS your last photography related purchase?

I order two packages from the Back Packer. A pack plus assorted goodies.
 
10 rolls of Rollei RPX400 plus for whatever reason Microphen landed in my basket too.

Funny how often things just land in your basket!
 
I hope that I got the right size case for the Hasselblad f/8 C 500mm lens. I found the case on eBay. The previous case must be for the 350mm lens.
 
A lens hood and circular polarizer for a Voigtländer 58mm f/1.4 SL-II. Woo-hoo!
 
Some Rollei Superpan 200...a film I haven't tried yet so looking forward to that one!
 
Just recently picked up a Think Tank "Turnstyle 10" sling bag which I plan to use with my Yashica 124G for some travel this coming year. It will probably also work with the Bronica with one lens mounted, but I like the TLR for vacation wanderings.

(The floors in the house are pretty well covered, but I can still see the windowsills, so obviously I needed another camera bag. )
 
A large box of old 35 and 16mm color neg cine film, some thousands of feet of film for experimental purposes, and 1.9l of Conc H2SO4 to get back into my B&W reversal developing. As well as a 10' projection screen to watch my home movies on in the basement.
 
A Coronet Twelve-20 pseudo TLR box camera. It can take 620 and 120 film. Have just respooled a roll of Velvia in it.
 
Arrived today: a Leitz Focotar-2 50mm f/4.5 enlarging lens. Many say the best enlarging lens ever built by far. I've been chasing for one of these for a long time and it wasn't cheap, but not as expensive as some you see on eBay. I'm looking forward to prining with this!

A 50 sheet 24x30cm box of Ilford MG Warmtone FB paper. The last time I used it, the paper was still coated on a warmer base. Anyone recall when was it that Ilford moved to a less yellow base?
 
A pretty nice 50/1.8 Nikkor AI for $40, plus tax. Plus a couple new LC-52 lens caps. Bought the lens so I could have a smaller normal lens for the FM2n and also the F, which likes to nosedive when anything heavier than a 24/2 AI Nikkor is mounted to it. Cordless battery pack on the F-36 drive doesn't have enough weight in the front part.

It is the right size!! What a hoot! :w00t: Doing a little dance now.
 
Two boxes of long expired ('68 & '70) Kodak infrared 3x4. Looks like the pre-high speed stuff, it's supposed to have been refridgerated all this time. We shall see.
 
Ran out of a few basics...

Boric Acid (1-pound)
Potassium Alum (1-pound)
Potassium Bromide (1-pound)
Sodium Carbonate (5-pounds)

I bought a couple Styrofoam coolers (for c-41 water baths) at Drug Mart when I picked up film I had dropped off for development & scans. As fate would have it, I later found the scans all have a line across them. I'll have to scan the film myself to see if it was their processor or scanner. (Looking at the negatives, I think it was their scanner.)
 
at the suggestion of a few more knowledgable about no sprocket hole 35mm type film cameras
a bantam RF so I can hopefully roll some paper negatives in a small format ..
 
A mahoosive order from Firstcall to go with the one from Silverprint-I'm especially impressed with the Ilford Cooltone FB and the Rollei Superpan 200 [responds very well to Barry Thornton's 2 bath formula].
 
Picked up an Archer 16-2009 tripod. All I really know it that it is a camcorder tripod. So it should work for all my cameras nicely.
