Just some ordinary and unshamed exposition of just aquired phototgraphy stuff

**Rense** · 12-18-2009, 06:04 AM

I got me these. And I am in love with it....

.
And I did not know where to post it, so I did it here. Hope I'm not annoying the mods too much

Yes, I know, one of the lenses has a Canon cap, but what the heck, it's all in a very good state, and the camera even in a excellent state, I would say.
You can see, I'm not much of a product shooter, and even less a P&S photographer (the last one, far from sharp....)

The whole bunch

This is the camera with the prism viewfinder

The view through the waist level finder.... Wow, it's incredible !!!! Can't catch it in a photo, you should try it!

Just to compare the size of it together with my K20 + A 50/1.7.

**Iris** · 12-18-2009, 06:16 AM

Thanks Rense,

Looks great!
For now my curiosity is satisfied

Can imagine you are now a happy man now everything seems to work!
Hopefully this stays the same after taking pictures

Hey congratulations Rense...you made yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Good for you...looking forward to some great photos from your new toys!

**Sailor** · 12-18-2009, 07:06 AM

Wonderful, my friend - have fun with these. You deserve 'em.

Thank you Iris! Yes, after the first problems, which turned out to be problems of the user, not of the used (...), everything's okay now! And I AM happy, yes!

Thank you Jan. It was more a birthday present than a Christmas present, but the fun is alike, I guess

Thank you Jer! I think this has to slow down my photography habits a bit... And it requires some other skills too, so I think for me this is a new photography road...

Looks like a great time ahead for you Rense. JIM

heliphoto · 12-18-2009, 09:43 AM

Wow! Awesome!... You need to include one more photo in this thread - the one with you using the camera with some huge lens and a cigarette hanging out of your mouth

.

**Heinrich Lohmann** · 12-18-2009, 01:00 PM

Hi Rense and congrats, you got yourself some pretty nice equipment there. Don't forget the obligatory first picture.

Thanks Jim. I hope so! The coupling for the TTL-prism is broken, talked about that with Eric, but I think it doesn't affect the functioning of the camera as such.

Thanks Josh! Seen that one before. But my biggest lens is far from this guy's. And what's more: I don't smoke

Thank you Heinrich. Yes, I am very exited about it, but didn't get film until now. But I will post the first obligatory one, be ascertained!

It's not hard at all with a spotmeter.

Congrats Renses, I'm sure you'll love shooting with it. After I saw my first transparencies from my 67 I was so blown away I could never go without Medium Format.

Happy Shooting, hope to see some shots from it.
