A late chrome Elmarit-M 2.8/90mm in like new condition for a very good price. Best value for money of all Leica lenses.

Well, it is sort of a rangefinder: Olympus Stylus 3.5 arrived today. Black. Near mint. fixed focal length 35mm glass triplet lens. Auto focus. Clamshell. Really a nifty little tote-it-anywhere rascal. Will finish a roll of Fuji 200 tomorrow and get it processed to see if the $15 purchase price (shipping included) and $6 battery were worth it ...

I've been busy in rangefinderland...my latest is a very nice Olympus 35 SP that I'm currently running some film through. I have wanted one of these for a very long time and finally found one for a reasonable price. I've also recently bought a Braun Paxette and a Voigtlander Vitomatic IIa from the flea market for $8.95. Anyone who has used these Voigtlanders knows that the film has to be in the camera in order for it to trip the shutter. I figured the seller didn't know that and assumed that it wasn't working and sold it for so cheap. It works beautifully now!

A FED-2 in what seems to be tip-top condition, and a Novoflex adapter (still in the post) to let me use my M42 lenses on my LTM RFs.

A Konica Auto S. Supposed to be in perfect working condition and a one-user camera, but with the popular auction site, who knows. It looks pretty, though.

I just received three cameras from an APUGer. A Yashica Electro 35 GT suffering from POD but I'll be able to fix that, another Yashica Electro but in GS trim that I have yet to find a problem with and a Bell & Howell/Canon Canonet 17 with a shutter problem that I will have to dig into in the future. I knew the problems before I bought them so I am just going to have fun fixing them. Thanks go to Holmburgers for the addition to my collection.

Leica CLE with 19mm Canon lens

My CLE with a 19mm Canon

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just received my "new" 19mm Canon lens and viewfinder from Brasil (thank you, Wouter) and here it is, happily married to my CLE. Some black tape and a Mr. Zhou 1/2 case for the M6 completes the package. The Canon viewfinder is excellent, even when wearing my glasses and with the Canon Lens Mount Converter B, all the numbers on the 19mm FL lens line up exactly at 12 o'clock.

I need to update my post in this thread that I made three days ago, as an Xpan just magically appeared on my doorstep this morning.

GAS? What GAS?

My latest Rf has been long hankered after... Leica IIIa, not nearly as hard to use as people make it out to be. Made in 1936/37 you can't help but imagine the life it lived and how it might have left Nazi Germany?!

This coupled with Jupiter12 lens is now my everyday black and white shooter.

Voigtlander Vito B with 50/3.5 Color Skopar.

I know it's a viewfinder and not a rangefinder, so I mounted a Voigtlander rangefinder in the shoe.

Now does it qualify for this thread?
