It came with a Leica II from 1932 in unknown condition (lens seems to be from 1931? like my model C). Will probably run a test roll through it and if it doesn’t work it can just be a display piece for now. Maybe I’ll get it serviced at some point.

Also got a period-correct 11-o’clock Elmar 50mm f/3.5 for my Leica I model C! Nice to finally have a matching lens, the 11-o’clock Elmars are a little tricky to track down.

Got the news that the store found the charger for this! So when it arrives I’ll actually be able to go out and shoot some photos on the DCS 620!

Honestly not a fan of this lens, it flares easily and has heaps of chromic aberration…will probably get myself the Sigma 17mm f/4 instead.

I HATE COLLINGWOOD Wolfenstein 3D mod on floppy disk. This version doesn't work. :(

Going to shoot some 4x5 for the first time in quite a while. Have loaded some Foma Retropan 320 for today!

I got all the components…The Cube is functional and shoots instax wide…

Hexar AF ended up having the usual dirty shutter button contacts, so it’s back to the shop and off for repairs (for free, thankfully)

Me: “What if I want to shoot a couple of photos without having to go through an entire roll of film?”

(shoots 4x5 instead of just using a digital camera)
