What happened to the photo?

Marc

It was my fault . Thinking back , I realized that I erased the image in my gallery and subsequently the image is also deleted in the thread . Sorry .

M4-2 and 35mm.

That M4-2 must have had a hard working life and surely has deserved a pensioners life now .
She seems to be in still working order .

I just received a Summarex 8.5cm f/1.5 from gogopix. It is mounted on my iiig. The Summarex is vintage 1951 and the iiig is vintage 1956/1957. I'm not a collector, I'm a user, and will be using the Summarex on the iiig and other cameras.

Vintage gear are, themselves, works of art. These are a pair of Leica IIs, one chrome and one black, with a hexanon 35/2 on one, and a summicron 35/2 on the other.

A few memories, and a dream ... a few of which I still have.

I certainly remember the yellow 501CM as I bought it from you. Just recently sold it to fund my S2 system

Lovely looking Leica 3g. I thought I remembered you purchasing my 85 Summarex. Am I wrong?

Woody, No, I didn't buy your Summarex. I'm sure it is still somewhere in this community. I did have another Summarex, but it came from a dealer.

Paul,
These are both so wonderful. I especially like the black one.

Hey Cindy, its fun getting back to basics, and these cameras are not too expensive (at least relatively speaking)!

That summarex looks like a hefty piece of glass, and the red looks great against the chrome!

The ancestor of Sony's SLT cameras, the Canon Pellix. All of mine are still fully functional (the one on the left is unused and brand new) with intact mirrors, but many others have darkened or been destroyed over the years. I wonder how the new Sony SLT's will fare with time? - Christopher

This is my smallest MF camera . A WELTA/WELTAX .
I don't know when it was built but I believe it must have been shortly after WW2 . It is in fully working order and has already a CZ Jena TESSAR lens .
Have a look to the release button . Isn't that nice .

All these wonderful LEICA's make me dizzy , but up to now , I could fight down the temptation . :ROTFL:

Jürgen, I was looking for a Weltur for some time, but couldn't find a decent one. Your Weltax seems to be in great condition!

Erik, stop that. It hurts

Ha the mighty Summarex ! Making the Nocti a lightweight in comparison ...
BTW I've replaced the hood with a B+W ∅58mm alu tele-hood.
Anyway, you got yourself a cool combo, Cindy :thumbup:

All the very best.
