American Sports, 1970 by Tod Papageorge. I loved his book on Central Park, so I'm really looking forward to this one.
 
Haven't bought anything in a long time, but I was gifted a lot of E6 film in 135 and 120 format, which I hope to experiment with soon and process in C41 chemistry. Should be fun.
Makes me really curious about RA4 printing, particularly from half frame 135 negatives, using the 25mm enlarging lens I acquired a while ago.
 
The all-elusive 35mm f/2 FD lens!

My next big purchase will be from Adorama.

A light bulb for the overhead light, would have been easy if I wanted an LED bulb, but finding the right one in tungsten was surprisingly difficult.
I guess the times they are a changing.
 
Zeiss Ikon Ikonta - 75mm f/4.5 Novar with Prontor-S for €8.

Last time I went to a lighting fixture shop (best place to find "odd" light bulbs around here), I was told the sale of incandescent bulbs is prohibited in Brazil, except for dichroic bulbs.

Times are sure a-changing.

For this very reason, a few years ago I bought a lifetime supply of incandescent bulbs. I despise LED lighting.
 
A type "A" microprism focusing screen off ebay from a shop in Poland for my Canon F1n it has the type"C" plain ground glass one in it which is fine for longer lenses, but I find it very difficult to focus my wide angle lenses with it.

Hi Ben, have you considered the magnifying Waist Level Finder FN or FN-6X with diopter adjustments? It's more like a chimney hood than a held-low waist level finder:

Hass Intellifaucet D250 via our classies, Hasselblad 80mm 2.8 CFE and 180mm 4.0 CFi. Also ordered a Maxwell screen for my almost done Gibellini ACN45.

Looking to close on my darkroom in a week or two.

I have no problem with my New F1's Theo, I have split image focusing screens for them, the camera I bought the microprism focusing screen for was the all mechanical F1n that when I bought it had the the plain ground glass "C" focusing screen that has no focusing aids that's difficult to focus my wide angle lenses with.
 
Some HP5+ in 120 and some Fuji Superia 400 in 35mm, in Boots in Kendal-respect to them foe stocking HP5+ in 120 format!
 
Just bought a Fuji GF670... trying something different in the medium format world outside of Hasselblad.
 
I think my last purchase was a Weston Master IV meter for $6 at an antique shop clearance/closing sale. Waaay back in June or July.
 
Five litres of Kodak PolyMax T print developer - shipped, from B & H.

Because I like to flaunt rules!bandit:
 
A ground glass screen for a 4X5 camera. I am gong to make this camera from scavenged parts - a project for the holidays :smile:
