Emotion beats rationality in this case, just look at that thing, the moment you see it you want to make love to it.

Something rare now:  an Angenieux Zoom Lens 25 - 250 mm f/3,2 with Nikon mount:

Ah well, still not that common of course.

It's a great cinema lens, so dreamy and creamy wide open.

But to be fair in camera land they are sort of the equivalent of a supermodel.

The both are:
Incredibly good looking
Well made
Expensive
Light and thin
A bit quirky
Pretty darn rare
And did I mention expensive?

I've had an M8 for a while, until it got stolen then used the insurance money to fund some other stuff. I still miss it every day.

Also right now ebay for a hundred grand, one of the rarest lenses ever:

The mighty Nikon 6mm f2.8, 11 pounds and 220 degree viewing angle.

glad some one gets it!

a field camera is next on my list for this summer. These wooden Shen Hao's are beautiful cameras and can be picked up for ~500 bucks.

Whoa that thing is sexy. One of the main reasons I didn't go large format is because I can't afford the film. That, and I love square format.

Field camera's are awesome of course, but you also have to dish out a lot of money for a really good tripod.


And some Canon 7 porn, because that's the camera I've been shooting with lately. Yes, a Leica is better, but only a litle; considering how much a Canon 7 costs, it's a heck of a deal. Gotta love it!

Actual name is:

Leica M6 Sultan of Negeri Brunei Darussalam Silver jubilee GOLD Edition 

Not joking, apparently besides being a keen car collector with a collection of over 6000 cars the the Sultan of Brunei is also a keen photographer.



To stay on-topic, a collection of pornography in 1990's resolution:

That's what a Leica should look like! Love it.

Don't understand why the Sultan of Brunei didn't opt for a M2/M3 style film advance lever though. The M6's is so ugly imo

It is supposedly more comfortable.
But yeah the black plastic part looks ugly.

That's why peope who get annoyed buy it change it out for the lever from the MP since that can be had new for a mere 170 bucks.

M6 with MP lever:

Looks a lot better.

Don't have any still camera porn to offer up, so here's some film/digital cinema setups!

Any guesses for this bad boy? Not the greatest photo but I was busy working and didn't have time for a good one.
