I assume it is a LEICA . I think it would be nice to add some data , like , what brand , when it was built and if the camera is still in working order . At least when showing vintage gear . Thank you .

cmb_ · 19th February 2011

Another Leica contribution.

Knorp · 19th February 2011

My trusty M8, getting used again since my M9 have been proven to be less trusty.

Shot with the humble DLUX3.

It was my fault . Thinking back , I realized that I erased the image in my gallery and subsequently the image is also deleted in the thread . Sorry .

That M4-2 must have had a hard working life and surely has deserved a pensioners life now .
She seems to be in still working order .

Cindy Flood · 12th March 2011

I just received a Summarex 8.5cm f/1.5 from gogopix. It is mounted on my iiig. The Summarex is vintage 1951 and the iiig is vintage 1956/1957. I'm not a collector, I'm a user, and will be using the Summarex on the iiig and other cameras.

pphuang · 12th March 2011

Vintage gear are, themselves, works of art. These are a pair of Leica IIs, one chrome and one black, with a hexanon 35/2 on one, and a summicron 35/2 on the other.

Lovely looking Leica 3g. I thought I remembered you purchasing my 85 Summarex. Am I wrong?

Woody, No, I didn't buy your Summarex. I'm sure it is still somewhere in this community. I did have another Summarex, but it came from a dealer.

Cindy Flood · 12th March 2011

Paul,
These are both so wonderful. I especially like the black one.

Hey Cindy, its fun getting back to basics, and these cameras are not too expensive (at least relatively speaking)!

That summarex looks like a hefty piece of glass, and the red looks great against the chrome!

engel001 · 14th March 2011

The ancestor of Sony's SLT cameras, the Canon Pellix. All of mine are still fully functional (the one on the left is unused and brand new) with intact mirrors, but many others have darkened or been destroyed over the years. I wonder how the new Sony SLT's will fare with time? - Christopher

Erik Five · 15th March 2011

jotloob · 18th March 2011

This is my smallest MF camera . A WELTA/WELTAX .
I don't know when it was built but I believe it must have been shortly after WW2 . It is in fully working order and has already a CZ Jena TESSAR lens .
Have a look to the release button . Isn't that nice .

All these wonderful LEICA's make me dizzy , but up to now , I could fight down the temptation .

OlliL · 18th March 2011

Jürgen, I was looking for a Weltur for some time, but couldn't find a decent one. Your Weltax seems to be in great condition!

Erik, stop that. It hurts

Ha the mighty Summarex ! Making the Nocti a lightweight in comparison ...

BTW I've replaced the hood with a B+W ∅58mm alu tele-hood.
Anyway, you got yourself a cool combo, Cindy

All the very best.

Simple, modern, elegant. :-)

Thanks. Envying your lens collection

. I kind of looked around on eBay and didn't see any CFV 16s. Won't be buying anytime soon, but was curious about prices. Does the 500c/m trigger the DB without a sync cord?

Heh, thanks.

CFV backs are rare, but they pop up from time to time. Patience is definitely required... I do believe the 500 triggers the back (I got mine with a 500C/M and why I'm selling the body as I have a 503CW).

Jorgen Udvang · 2nd August 2011

Look what arrived here today. The lens I found new-in-box last year, and has been used as standard lens on the GH1. The camera arrived from down under thanks to a very friendly guy

GH1 with Nikkor AIS 105mm f/1.8 @ f/8

Steen · 2nd August 2011

Whoa, congratulations on your new purchase, Jorgen.
What a beautiful and compact 24x36mm format camera, obviously from the days when there were still true designers.
I‘d love to see a digital version of that design, 24x36mm format of course

I have already shown my own F3 elsewhere, but I think it belongs in this thread as well.
