Description Just got from e-bay an Olympus Trip 35 and a Voigtlander Vito for 24,02 and 24,80 euros, INCLUDING shipping from England to Greece
The Vito is already loaded with film
e-bay Santa, sends me also a Leica Mini-Zoom 35-70 camera for 56 euros
All in perfect working and cosmetic condition
Can't wait to get out and have some street fun with them!
I also had to remember the ancient f16 rule! [link]

I knoooow, I was just checking reviews for your Leica (jealous-want one!!!). Soon you will need one of those glass cupboards for all you cameras, like the one you have for model bikes

StamatisGR In reply to absinthFenix [2009-12-22 11:43:38 +0000 UTC]

Actually it's a toy-camera, just point and shoot!
But it's a well built toy
Once again you were in my mind! I was actually thinking
of replacing some of the motorbikes
with my new vintage cameras!

absinthFenix In reply to StamatisGR [2009-12-22 11:46:58 +0000 UTC]

I wish you to haveeee a lots of fun. Can't wait to see new photos!

TThealer56 In reply to StamatisGR [2009-12-18 08:43:41 +0000 UTC]

Isn't that cute!

Yeah, I was just checking around to see if I could even find a picture of that camera online anywhere. No go. I did find a couple Kalimars that were somewhat close. Not that I'd want to shoot film again, just to put into my Dad's camera collection. You would probably have a fit at the old cameras my Dad has over at his house. Old German Liecas, just all different stuff! Pretty incredible. Mostly between about 1939 and 1950.

Yes, I read a Jewish proverb that runs like this:
When the father helps the son, they both smile. When the son helps the father, they both cry. I'm afraid I'm at that second stage of life.

makes you really feel like you're taking a photo, because you really have to think about it more. I love rangefinders

StamatisGR In reply to stuartperry [2009-12-16 15:21:15 +0000 UTC]

Bad thing is that till you think the moment might run away
Only solution is the use of hyperfocal focus, I guess.
