The M remains muy only 85mm lens. I was eyeing-up a Tak 85/1.9 but I think the optical formula is the same as the M.

oh yes - look for it this fall in the Single In Challenge....

A lovely, appealing lens no doubt.

Geez, do you have a secretary managing your SICs by now?

How hard is it for a lens to get an appointment?

I have been shooting in the SIC since September '15 and have only doubled up once (used the same lens twice for the SIC)....

right now, I have enough lenses that I haven't used yet to last me almost another year or so....

24 inch towel bar that pulled out of the wall. The wall was so badly damaged, I had to get a 30 inch bar so I didn't have to rebuild the area.

Man is that ever frustrating (speaking from experience)!

Hopefully I did a better job of installation than the home builders. Thanks! Somehow I think you had the same problem once upon a time ....

Seven (7) stitches on my face an head from Basal Cell Carcinoma excisions. It seems that growing up in an area where shoes shirts and hats come off every spring and only go back on when school goes back in makes one susceptible. The surgeon that cut out mine expects to have someone take hers out in a few years. She grew up on swimming beaches too.

Gave eight 35mm "point and shoot" cameras to a charity shop, left-overs from the last couple of job lots. Things like a Pentax AF Zoom 50 and equivalents from four or five manufacturers, nothing especially nice but a bit better than the really cheapo models. I could have probably sold them but I really had no desire to do the research needed to say something useful about each camera, find the instructions on line, etc. I've kept one that seemed a cut above the rest, a nice clean Pentax Espio 120, and will make the effort to sell that one.

a Vivitar 28/2

That reminds me at some point I need to take a comparison pic of the two versions of the Vivitar 28/2 along with the K. The K is much bigger.

A Panasonic FZ1000 with three extra batteries and a carrying case. Great little crossover camera but I rarely use it so I sold it to my wife's best friend who has need for such a camera and will put it to good use.
