·Planning on shooting it with a Pentax SV when I get some time, but for now I've stick it on my A7III. The glass is thankfully quite clean, with the only real issues being some bubbles in the glass elements.
Vintage Watches are great, but let’s see some Vintage Cameras

·A colleague of mine (recently retired) used this rig when she was at NASA back in the 80’s. They would use it for high speed flash photography and would burn the entire cartridge in one shot.

·Can someone recommend a used 4x5 view camera brand or make/model. Some beautiful weirdo decided to make an adaptor so I can mount my Fuji GFX on one. It lets you slide the camera body and take 3 pictures to use the whole 4x5 image, and then stitch them together in post into a 300+MP image.
I know it's silly and impractical, but, much like with collecting watches, why it sounds fun.

·I’ve been using systems like this for a few years- currently have one for the Hassy X2D. PM me and we can chat about what you have and what you need to get up and running unless you want to add another 2 pages to this thread.
Oh cool! Thanks for the offer. Will message you soon.

··Most fun screen name at ΩFGoing through some archives and found this shot; I still have the Canonet and the Rollieflex. I still have an Nikon FE2, the pictured Nikon D80 has been e-recycled.

·The D80 deserved to be recycled. The 3.5 Xenotar (which is what that looks like) is the one I have as well- incredible lens.
I used 3 different FE/FE2’s during my wedding days and two of the three met with the fatal electronics failures- tragic and heartbreaking. I still have one. Always had an FM2 body in the bag just in case.

·You could buy one in 1975 for $800 and for about that now in a dealer. Is that keeping up with inflation or what!
