Writing less is often more difficult than writing more

On camera gear and acquisitions

This evening, I lost a Voigtlander 28/35 minifinder off my Lumix LX3 hot shoe at the Woodside/61st St subway station. On the 7 train. Very disappointing.

Yet more of the cult of Leica

More than a year ago, I mentioned my want of Leica. Well, I bought a Leica CL (what I could afford), but still it’s not a ‘real’ Leica. Photographer Frank Van Riper of the Washington Post writes about how it took him 40 years to get a Leica M6. Discouraging.

I mentioned the cult of Leica some time back. I joined the club. Here’s your chance: I’m selling a beautiful CLA‘d Leica CL on eBay.

Buy this camera

I’m selling a lovely Minolta-16 II on eBay. Buy it.
