what photography related item did you buy this week?

[RichardC]

I added 2 more pictures so you can see. If you want a link let me know.

Thank you for the pictures - I can see how the screen can fold out. I can only find one online. Looks like the same bracket is sold on eBay and Amazon.

A selection of Sioti screw in lens hoods. The come with a centre pinch cap that fits the end of the hood. While I like my various 7artisans and Meike manual focus primes they don't come with hoods.

I leave these hoods on permanently as they have a cap for the hood. I'm also adding the hoods to some of my legacy glass.

Gotta love Gumtree Saw an ad for Silver Pen mini epm2 with 14-42 that had been on for 6 weeks for A$145. The image looked a bit iffy and she'd had no offers so I threw her an $80 offer as I thought I could at least take a look as she's in the next suburb. Anyways.....................came with a lowepro bag, boxed as new. It was an elderly lady who bought it for her holiday but couldn't figure out how to use it. I felt rather guilty at my lowball so gave her $100. Got home and looked at shutter count which turned out to be only 57! Took this dinosaur near an hour to find out how to display the SCP. Took some shots and I realised once again, how much the 14-42 mkll R is under-rated when you get a good copy!

An EM10 2 to go with Oly 25mm f/1.8 I bought to go with the EM10 [that I returned] that was going to be it!!....and then somehow a Pany 14-42 Mk 2 seemed like something I needed as well.
I'm in BIG trouble!!!

not sure what is your style of photography but I would have trouble with just cameras without a viewfinder, especially in the Queensland bright sun.
I find that composing on the rear screen works only for snapshots or "shooting from the hip". For anything else I would pair any of your cameras with an VF-4.

Nice going Kev! Lovely cameras going for a song.
I understand the “objects of desire” syndrome.
Even if you never used them, they just look nice in a cabinet.
Nice to have.
I made a promise to myself, never to buy stuff I don’t need.
Got to much stuff, had a whole houseful once...
Yeah, nearly forgot, pleased you seen that old lady right. That stuff matters.

Agree but I had a viewfinder previously and found it rather clumsy and defeating the object of "going smaller" and being less obtrusive. I'll pair these with my faster lenses mainly for night photography where sunlight won't be a problem and "shooting from the hip" street photography.

Does a preorder of E-M5iii count? I was told the deliveries start mid-November.

If money has changed hands, it’s all sport...

I only just got my hands on the MkII so it’ll be a while before I can justify the third... unless it has an unfortunate accident...

Do cellphones with cameras count?

My 4-year old Samsung S6 Edge slipped out of my pocket onto the concrete. Fell maybe 3 feet. Was in its case, but it hit on a corner and still busted up the screen like a car windshield.

Replaced with a Samsung S10+ that has 5 cameras in it: One telephoto and a couple of wides. Couple of other front ones too, but I don't know what one does yet. I'll think of it as getting five cameras for the price of one Olympus Pro lens.

Luckily, the store managed to move most all of the stuff into the new one in maybe 30 minutes. Some of the apps took a lot of updates so I guess they put them out depending on the Android version. Old ones get parked maybe and never update. Dunno.

A E-M5 ii in a grey import clearance sale. Yes I would prefer a iii, but it will be my second camera and I couldn't really justify the extra £800. But it does mean I can grab a coupled of small prime lenses with the money I saved.

 

[Sleepy Capybara]

Bought a tiny pouch for GM1 and 20mm...because why not. Oh and an L bracket for the same, from China so that’s about 2 months away from my doorstep.

 

[ektar]

Resistance is futile: Super Takumar 24mm f3.5
with case
and
dedicated clamp-on metal lens hood
with it's own case!!!

These things stand as a testament to the days when things were beautifully made...because that's how it should be.
