The rare moment your lens is worth 7 times as much as your 10K camera.

It's the sublime Angenieux 24-290 f2.8.

This is a 28-340 f2.8

I agree with Laurens. Despite it being a beautiful camera, it's ugly as shit.

Btw, you working full time Thomas? Because you've been acquiring a ton of expensive camera's lately.

I work private sales of high end ($5k+) road bikes, so I clear a decent amount of commission, which goes to drugs and cameras lol

I like combining the 2
But I'm also probably going to sell my rz if I end up liking the 7 and will then use that money for the 43mm

Just get all the lenses, including the 210 which can't even be coupled to the rangefinder.

The 210 is quite possibly the most useless lens ever haha. Can't couple to the rangefinder, slow as the internet was when it was introduced, minimum focus distance is like 25 feet or something stupid - so you can't even use it for headshots, and it costs as much as a Leica body.


Really, if I had that camera, I'd just about only use the 43mm, because that's what that camera is for - Best portability:Image Quality Landscape camera you're going to find, and has perfect glass.

Also, the panoramic adapter is fucking SOLID.

They look cool, but every one I've picked up feels pretty tough to use.. which is why I have declined to purchase one.

Every one Ive picked up is extremely rough to focus... like, tear your damn skin off just to turn the focus gear, deal, kinda rough...

Interesting thing is that the C3 was used in Harry Potter (why they used an American Camera in a film where they tried to be exquisitely british is beyond me. They could have used a Leica iii and it would have been more british than the Argus - at least the british rebranded and built those)
