Introduction

<p>This is my first posting,just to let y'all know I'm here.I've spent many years as a film jockey, but gave it up over fifteen years ago.In that time , digital happened, and I felt that photography was done.With the major manufacturers giving up on film production,I felt that film photography was definitely done-for. I seem to be, happily,wrong.As long as major manufacturers such as Zeiss produce fine film cameras,there still is hope.I've just added three new lenses to my Nikon film outfit,including 15mm f/3.5 Nikkor,35mm f/1.4,and a brand new Zeiss 85mm f/1.4(in Nikon mount).I am in the process of restoring my D.R.,as well,cleaning and rebuilding,and making new bases for my Omega D-2v and my E-3 5X7 enlarger with Aristo cold light head.Sound proud of my stuff?Love it!But the beauty is that FILM LIVES!And eBay has become my great supplier.I am also an amateur microscopist/photomicrographer, and would love to hear from or about anyone at all doing same.Thanks to My eBay,I,ve gained possession of several nice examples of my dream microscope-the mighty Zeiss Universal.Anyone at all with similar interests, PLEASE RESPOND!I need accessories and GLASS for these Behemoths! Keep shooting!If the demand is there, they will supply!</p>
