Boot sale near Poitiers from several weekends ago ... for 10€ a very nice and working Paillard Bolex 8L 8mm camera. The meter is very sluggish and I have a manual with it, too, but I could not find it. Set it apart to review and now "lost" it
... it will show up soon enough.
And for 20€ a Canon AE-1 Program with a FD 50/1.8 in a really trashy camera bag that contained some goodies. I may have gambled here and "lost" ... there was no battery at purchase and at home the film advance lever is blocked. Meter is OK. Could be the typical Canon "shutter release magnet" problem here ... I took the base plate off and can force fire the shutter ... yep, another project for a rainy day. Sometimes you win and other times you loose ...
