What's your latest new old camera? (Part 1)

[drkhalsa]

Just received a Nikon FM2n, black, with a Nikkor 35-105mm f3.5-4.5 from a generous friend in California.
He included 4 rolls of film. 2 Superia 100 and 2 Sensia 400.

I have just bought a Bronica ETRSi with speed grip and AE II prism finder and additional film back, 75 and 200 mm lenses.

Just getting the rangefinder bug. Bought a Yashica 35 electro, followed by a Minolta Hi-Matic 9. Both in fine condition. Now looking at another Yashica (MG 1)and my slr's have taken the huff.

Thanks, I did, but I'm at the moment I'm trying to pick some up a bit cheaper on ebay . I have somebody to develop them as well. For those in the UK I've found www.peak-imaging.co.uk to be very good.

Just got a really nice looking Yashica MG-1 right here on APUG. It should be lots of fun. Waiting for a battery adapter to arrive in the mail and then I'll give it a go.

Went into London Camera Exchange and saw they had a Pentax ME Super for £5.00. Chap told me it was faulty as the mirror kept sticking to the gooey foam around the focusing screen. No problem to fix so I bought it. Now I need a K mount lens or two.

The everready case for my Zeiss Ikon Contessa 35 arrived today. A few scuffs needing some shoe polish, and a fatigued "hinge" where the front cover attaches to the body case. A good leatherworker can help me here. But...for $4.00! When and where might I hope to find this item, for an expensive camera produced for only a few years? KEH are good folk.

A silver Nikon FA with Nikkor AI-S 1.4/50.
A black Nikon FE with Nikkor AI 2.8/35, Nikkor AI 2/50 & HOYA -Tokina made?- AI 2.8/135.

I was gifted by an old friend her late Father's early Leica M3 DS with a nice 5cm f:2 collapsable Summicron, a 9cm f:4 Elmar, and 3.5cm f:3.5 Summaron along with a Leica meter MC. It's a little rough around the edges, but works very well and I tested the shutter and it is pretty close to speck on most of the speeds. Now I just have to shoot some film.

I just bought a second Contax Aria.

Couple of weeks ago I threw in a Nikon N5005 in my KEH order. Thought I'd try out one of Nikon's least loved bodies-for 12usd, why not. Shot a roll of neg film, and everything came out well. But it's hard to override exposure-can't override DX coding and there's no exp comp. No way to attach cable release or remote cord. There's no display of shutter or f stop in viewfinder. And no metering with non cpu manual focus lenses. It's a minimalist body, the "EM" of the AF era. It does have some good features-timer, AE lock, AF, built in flash, uses AA batteries, and dirt cheap nowadays.

Use it until it quits and then return it for a refund

I should mentioned that I didn't physically go to landfill.. the lady I meet and got it from told me if I didn't take it, she was going to toss it in the trash. What a travisty!!!

A Mamiya 1000DTL with dead meter but who needs a meter I love $12.00 cameras.

Mine is my Zenza Bronica S2 with a Nikkor 75mm f2.8, it instantly became my favorite camera, and for $120 there was no way I could let it pass me by. I still can't believe how sharp this lens is, if it were any sharper you'd cut yourself on it.

I have an Agfa/Ansco 5x7 being given to me tomorrow. A friend doing closet cleaning. I am surprised how excited I am waiting for it. I have never shot 5x7, only 8x10 or 4x5 but I have a stack of 5x7 holders and even 5x7 film in the freezer. A new trick for an old dog.

5x7 is fun, the size and aspect ratio can make absolutely stunning little contact prints.

 

[ambaker]

Contax G2. All I need now is a lens for it.

 

[MDR]

Koni Omega Rapid as big as some of my LF cameras but nice viewfinder and reasonable fast to focus at least for a MF camera who needs a Mamiya 7 anyway

 

[Kyle M.]

As of today it's a Canon EOS Elan 7 with a Canon 28-90 f4.5-5.6 USM lens, and yes I do have a slight case of the G.A.S. but it's getting better.

I like stories like this! A significant gift. Might need a CLA though, but fabulous all the same.
Treasure it!

A Nikon Series E 35mm F2.5 with a Nikon EM and a SB-E. It is my third EM. I like them!
