Make me wonder if anyone will have the guts to invest in truly pubic transportation, and ban personal cars. There are so many plus's to an idea like that.

Wow! Makes me want to add my 90/4 to a carry bag once more. Nice!

Hello Rick, Hope you got your camera sorted out. Your "latest activity: no inspiration" is a common occurrence in my world lately. The worst is when I grad my bag, head out, arrive back home put the bag down and realize I didn't take one shot. Think I'll just put the cameras in the cabinet and...

Well no additions to the other post. So lets try another path: Anyone wishing to post their own pictures here feel free. The only rule being that the poster use a vintage Leica camera or lens, you say which. Post away!

One small Lowerpro holds my Leica iif RD, a 50/2 Nikkor 28cm/3.5 a shade for each a hood for each a turret viewfinder ,the CZJ one, along with a DeJUR light meter. An oldie but a goodie. A few pre-cut rolls of out of date film plucked from the freezer rounds out the first bag. The other bag...

With the recent tragedy in France it can be hard to focus on other things of importance. A day like today tends to help me retreat into myself to take stock of my daily blessings. I sometimes tend to go on "automatic pilot" forgetting the wonderful gifts that are present in my world. I turn on...

I have both for my trusty FTn the micro, my favorite, and the regular prime. Is there a version for my thread mounts? Are there any at a reasonable price? A fine lens are there just not that many to be had? I remember reading that the 10.5's were hugely popular. Did they make two versions in LTM...

Dale . It's been a long, long time now but I have a memory of my Grandfather, back in '65 or '66 pointing out an old brick building in Charleston. It had two stories an outside deck allowed entry to the barracks rooms. He said that he had been a graduate. My family hailed from Sumter, SC.He...

Under the film dial there's a horned dial that rotates revealing numbers 0-20. First what is it and should it be left alone , kept on 0, or doesn't it matter. Looked on a download book on Leica if iif iiif ---not clear, nice picks

Brusby, a bit off topic but hey some folks don't eat seafood for one reason or another. But how about those shots. Me I don't use the modern cameras but love the classic glass. Seeing the waterfront takes me back to New Orleans. River, lake or swamp. Miss it all---all the time.

I have an old Kalimar self timer. Works great on needful SLR's however it lacks the fat piece (The one that resembles a tire air valve cover) that screws onto the bottom of the self timer to fit a Leica. Anyone have an extra to sell?

Someone was parting w/a used Zhou Black 1/2 case with the red stiching. Made an offer and ended up with a new-looking 1/2 case at a great discount! My Leica's don't seem to notice the thread color difference. Both appear as new and feel that way. I've clad my Canon's in Zhou's, never a problum.
