I've got every base covered, so why would I want more?
I'm done. Spent way too much money and I've got more than I need.

Two little Point and Shoots (just in case)

Nikon, Mamiya-Sekor, Yashica SLR's

A couple old zone focus 35mm's

Three Rangefinders

Hasselblad medium format SLR's

A 3.25 x 4.25 and a 4x5 Large Format folding Rangefinders.

That's it, everything is covered. I don't need any more!

.........

Um, so... where's that therapy group meet at?

A TLR? A press style camera?

Yep .. it's all over! No more gas!

Once my Pentax 67ii with 105mm and 75mm lenses gets here from the US I'm done!

I can relate to this post.

And I am on the other end of the spectrum...just starting out (only have a P&S). But I'm already hooked.

Maybe I should just stick with my Canon Tx-1...and curb my enthusiasm.

...or maybe just get a Canon S90 (it's still small and inexpensive), or maybe just a Contax G2 set (smallish and fantastic lenses), or maybe Canon 5D MII, I meant Nikon D700...

Or maybe I should just stick with my Canon Tx-1, and take a vacation to Turks and Caicos.

I feel your pain, I do

This will help...
