Your latest acquisition

That will make a great outfit for wildlife shots!

I guess that I'm into short lenses for now... got a Vivitar 28mm and an SMC Pentax A 28mm yesterday, plus "found" my T-mount adapter to use with a 28mm Soligor.

EDIT: I forgot (because I have even opened it yet) - got a 35MM DA, my first ever "new" lens (seriously!)...

Leitz 39mm swing-out polarizer

This is my second Leitz purchase.
The first was Trinovid binoculars, a good deal I got from Jon Goodman.
Someday I hope to own a 1961 Leica M2.

Blackrapid R Sport strap with a Arca Swiss quick-release plate - easy quick detach for tripod mounting.

Pentax DA 18-135 a few weeks ago and then today a FA 100mm 2.8 Macro arrived :-D

Found a black Konica C35 and a three pack of slightly expired Kodak Gold 200 for $10

Excited for you!
Enjoy it

Thanks Bert, I am excited to see what it does with the lenses I have!

One of these from a thrift store for $1:

(Not my photo)

This'll now come with me backpacking on my belt with lenses in it

Perfect for lenses and about 40 times cheaper than a Lowepro lens case.
I can fit my 50-200 and 18-55 stacked in it, size wise if you remove the hood and tripod collar from a 60-250 you could squeeze it into it.

Just received a new (new to me) AF-540FGZ. Really excited, and somewhat overwhelmed...92 pages of things to learn. I was pleasantly surprised that it works with some old 1st generation eneloops that I had...but of course, I'm going to have to get some of the new Panasonic Eneloop Pros.

You got one? Oh good for you!

There's so much really good stuff out there right now. I've completely spent my FF budget on the old lenses I thought I'd never own.

That's a great idea. I need something to carry my A 70-210 f4. Maybe I'll go 'shopping' tomorrow.
