Value Village / No Not This Time
No I didn't make it to the Value Village today but I did get to the local auction sale and All I could fine was some Leica stuff. Leica ball head, Leica 35-135 finder, Elmar 9cm and a light meter. Oh there was a Kodak pocket folder in the lot also but a Friend with me got it as he likes that stuff.

i realize, looking at this pic, that what i want is a collapsible 90.
i have seen a few on the net but the cheapest one is beyond my present budget so i think i will just save a few more bucks and get what i want in the first place.

you got a good haul tonight john.

And here I am really needing a finder for the P so that I can use my 35 more effectively.

Is that a hint Stephanie? Oh sorry the finder looks just right on top of my IIIc. Did you not get one of those Helios (35-85-135) finders for 6 pounds. Fred (aka Tony Fred's mansevant) was nice enough to send me one over with shipping I think it was 8-9 pounds so pretty cheap.

Good scoop there, John! I would have kept the collapsible 90 for myself, but hey, that's just the kind of guy I am.

Very sunny but COLD today!

Frank I don't have an M mount and don't see one coming soon so I though better someone let someone use it rather then let it sit on the shelf. I am happy with the finder. So Joe can put the lens to use.

Thanks. I'll look around for the turret finder. KEH has Canon ones, but I'm not sure which is the best to go with...but that's if I actually want to spend that much money.

The thrifts I visit have nothing good lately. I did find a big stainless covered tray to use for developer--it's one of those cafeteria food servers, ha--and a few tee shirts.
