FracturedRabbit Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 But none of this modern nonsense thank you. No sir, if you're going to go full frame; you have to get the camera that started it all; the Leica I.

I'm donating a shed load of M42 (rarely used) lenses. Mostly Helios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiddlesticks Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Why waste your time on full frame when bigger is better??! ! ! Now if someone can recommend a good neck strap for this baby I would be very grateful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if someone can recommend a good neck strap for this baby I would be very grateful. Beautiful, would love a camera like that; although it would be a challenge to get an image out of it. Plenty of medium format options around (120 film); but bigger than that and it gets difficult. I have an 1896 Kodak that takes 101 film; which was phased out more than 50 years ago so I won't be shooting with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
