    FS Broncolor Verso A4 and 2 battery docks

    I've decided to replace my trusty Verso A4 and battery docks with something a bit lighter. As a hobbyist this pack has not seen much use. It operates flawlessly with and without the battery docks. The two battery docks are on their way back to me from Broncolor service in NJ. One of the...

    Making a bean bag to reduce camera shake - advice sought on spec!

    Scuba divers use weighted bags in their belts to get themselves to neutral buoyancy. Camera stores also sell weighted bags to hold down light stands... both filled and empty. And I agree with Udo... it's not a dumb question. To the contrary, it's made me think about trying it myself.

    Phase One LS vs Leica S glass comparisons

    I think the merits of the different systems have been well expressed in this thread. In my experience those that have bought into the S2 system are thrilled with it and are convinced that they made the right choice. Speaking for myself (but I suspect it's true of many others) the S2 was love...

    Phase One LS vs Leica S glass comparisons

    Without getting caught up in terminology I think we'd all agree that the glass is a major part of what can make an image special. Seems like it wasn't all that long ago that many of us were gathered on the alternative forum over at FM using Leica and Zeiss lenses on our Canon/Nikon bodies with...

    FS Swarovski EL 8.5x42 Binocs

    Bought these a while back when I was shooting a lot of wildlife but just don't have occasion to use them any more. These are considered among the best binoculars in the world and the retail price ($2349) reflects that. Mine are in excellent condition, no nicks or scratches on the exterior...

    Some S2 night/aurora shots

    Good stuff Stuart. I think you will quickly get accustomed to the buttons. It took me a while but I now actually prefer the interface of the S2 to the M9. Congrat's on the new kit.

    FS Contax MAM-1 and Kindai adapters

    Lazy me has never gotten around to posting these on the auction site. Saw Cindy's FS on her beautiful Contax 645 kit and thought I might as well bump this one more time. Asking prices at this point are a guideline... feel free to make any reasonable offer.

    Warning - Stolen Alpa Products in Zürich

    Sorry to hear this Thierry. This sort of thing is becoming all too common. I've got three friends who have suffered theft losses recently and aside from any financial loss there's an unpleasant sense of having had your space violated. Hopefully the photographic community will be made aware of...

    Liberated by the M9...

    I think these images speak volumes about the wisdom of your decision. Unless you have a need for more resolution the Leica M9 and the lenses you have can provide world class images.

    leica S2 vs. hasselblad H4D-40 vs. IQ140

    Perfect analogy Marc...and everyone in the AA meeting is looking at their watches to see when the meeting is over so they can go next door :)

    leica S2 vs. hasselblad H4D-40 vs. IQ140

    Thanks for the offer Roger...now I am sure it's gone up in value!! And if you plan on walking around with a pair of S2's with different focal lengths attached...I would suggest both a personal trainer and a bodyguard :)

    leica S2 vs. hasselblad H4D-40 vs. IQ140

    Certainly a valid concern and one I wish I had given more weight to when I bought my Sinar kit (I'm now a Leica S2 shooter). But unlike Sinar the demand for Leica products appears to be very strong. So much so that it's difficult to find stock. A more valid concern might be whether, if you...

    Advance notification: a lot of gear for sale

    Very well expressed Marc...and a perfectly legitimate basis to make gear choices. Among others, bike riders often use the expression: "getting there is half the fun". For some photographers i suspect it's well more than half...and I used to be a card carrying member of that group not so long...

    Firmware upgrade for H4D40 & 50 Owners

    If any one is so inclined I'd be interested to know how you can improve screen resolution with firmware. I understood this to be a feature for the H4D-60 but mistakenly assumed that model had a different screen. If it can be done via firmware... can it be done for brands other than Hassy???

    Pricing for black 50 Lux ASPH

    Leica should have hired Roger years ago...and there would be no shortage today.

    The end of tolerances reached ?

    Interesting discussion guys...it has given me food for thought about a subject I don't generally ponder. A pleasant break from gear talk. @Stefan...kudos on your command of the english language.

    What is the Leica 'glow'??

    That's what my friends and I used to call a "conversational door slammer"... and it's very good one :ROTFL:
