Nikon FE2:

View attachment 169376

Up until now, my Nikons have been the professional F series (F, F2, F3/T, F4s), the FM family (FM, FM3a), a Nikkormat FT2, and an S2.

I bought this primarily because I thought I'd use my SB-15 and SB-20 flash units on it, which I don't want to put on my FM3a or F4s's. Funny thing is, I've been shooting only in available light since 1971 - no flash.

The FE2 is one of the best Nikons i've ever used. If the FE2 would use rabbit-ear pre-AI nikkors, i would gladly trade my F2 for a FE2!!

Ricoh Singlex TLS with Sears branding.
Looks cool!!

The f1.4 lens is probably made by Tomioka and thus it must be a good lens.
Yes. I bought this kit mostly for that lens, I already have the same Sears camera in chrome, plus the Ricoh. The Tokina 28mm lens is reputedly quite good, as well.

The last camera I bought was a Lubitel 166u off of eBay from a ukrainian seller. Mostly just to test the waters of medium format photography. It's fun to play with but it's already in the shop for repairs. Apparently lubitel's and -20celsius don't get along. Makes the lens gears slip.

In case you did not see this in other posts. Have been looking a while and great to get one in this condition. The other one I got had to be returned as nothing with battery power would work. This everything works good and looks good too.

I stopped by the camera shop a few towns away today just to see what was around, and wound up walking out with a Kodak Valiant folder with a sticky shutter for $10. It'll be fun cleaning it up.

I actually purchased this FED-2 last year, but it was more of a fixer-upper than usual, and I repainted, CLA'd and installed a new shutter in this one:

Got this Canon, its as old as me!
Love it for B&W
Picked up this nice 645, heard shooting B&W with orange filter is amazing with this camera.

Rollei 35S. Arrived yesterday and not a mark or dent on it. Perfect! So happy. Had the old mercury battery in it (dead). Thank goodness it didn't leak - battery compartment clean. Will be my new travelling companion.

Well, I just pulled the trigger on a Nikon FE. Paid about 166 usd. Could've bartered more, but the gentleman saw how bad I wanted it, lol.

...

I see that yours has an eyepiece ring (either 0 diopter or some correction factor). Those are nice to have, as without a ring it may scratch eyeglasses.

I'm getting cameras faster than I can shoot them. I just picked up a black yashica electro 35 GTN for about 35$usd
Pictures incoming, still in need of a pretty deep clean. Also, it still has a roll of agfa bw 100 in it xD

Edit, photo added.
It's been a super eventful week and a half of south Korean bartering.
-olympus pen ee3
-nikon FE w/ a 50mm-1.4 nikkor lens.
-yashica electro 35 GTN in black <3
Other stuff;
52mm y2 filter for the nikon,
wide and ugly camera strap,
2x ektar 100, 3x Kodak 200, 2x APX100,
Inexpensive macro tripod for night shots from tables and stuff.
