I'm morbidly fascinated by this. And repelled.
what photography related item did you buy this week?

It's an disturbingly accurate representation of me.

Now I know why Kyocera closed down Yashica! Without even trying to sell it off to JIP.
Picked up a used ZS50, because.
I'll set it on midsize B&W +Raw and see what develops!

I thought I bought a 100 year old camera. After I got it home I found out it's only 95.

I would not use USPS right now. I was sent a check by express mail. It's lost somewhere. My daughters college books failed to arrive on time. I got a letter a few days ago with an RSVP in December. I don't know what's going on, but USPS is broken right now.
What's going on is the new boss of the USPS was told to get costs in line and he's cut OT. The result is the blue flu.
My stuff from USPS was delayed for a few weeks, but it all arrived safely.
I bought two items that, according to USPS tracking, were to be delivered January 23.
The first item arrived a week early. The second item arrived yesterday.
I bought and received a Sony AF 20mm f1.8 G lens for my FF system, $795 with 2 day delivery and tax by dealer, and will sell the Tamron 17-28 f2.8 zoom. This lens has been out for about 8 months and all reviews say it is sharp as all heck, even in the corners, relatively lightweight and about the size/weight of one of the Olympus Pro f1.2 lenses, it takes the same 67mm filter as 3 of my others Sony/Zeiss lenses. This is lens that I wish was made by Olympus/OMD Solutions for M4/3 (10mm for M4/3). Don't know why Olympus never made a sharp 10mm semi fast rectilinear lens, as many have asked for it.

Received today a Peak Designs Cuff and a Peak Designs Dual Plate. Both come from digiDirect via eBay.
Post of the year so far!!!!
Whilst I quite liked the Nokton 35-1.4, I was never really happy with it. It wide-open 'glow' was really just plain darn soft, and didn't really start to sing until f4. Picked up this tiny Ultron 35 as a replacement - a lens which is causing a bit of stir in rangefinder circles...

Man, that M240 is a pretty camera... Interested to see some more samples of this lens and how much it compares to the Skopar 35 2.5, which is what I'm shooting with. Probably sharper, but I can hardly find anything wrong with the Skopar.
Guess that's the reason my mail is getting here later than usual, one day it was 8:30 PM.
Nice choice re the Skopar - I've never used one, but have it on good authority (Matt Osborne being one) that it's a bit special. I'm tempted by the 21 f4 - not only does it appear to perform well, it's not expensive and it's utterly beautiful - and tiny.
Just off for a photo-walk down to our local woods in the morning sunshine with the 240 and Ultron. I'll post up in 'FF' thread the results.

2 eyecups for my EM5 mkII. Worst design ever. The fall off all the time. I think I have lost 2 or 3 all ready. Usually when I take camara off the bag.

They must have copied it from the EM5 mk1 then
That will never happen unless you decide to give me yours!Maybe you haven't learned your lesson until you try Oly 17mm f 1.2
