  1. Thank you, I missed my Nikon I was looking at the Z series maybe when the used prices go down I would look at one. I worry about going past 24mp, I had a Sony A7II a few year back and I thought the body was just odd. I notice to the further you go up the mp chain you have to make sure the lenses can handle it and that's costly.
  2. Hi all, I alway's like using Metz flashes but was said to hear they stop making them, is that true? Thanks
  3. Talking about 6 MP's I have a Konica/Minolta Maxxum 7D Digital SLR and it's the coolest DSLR, plus you could use those nice Minolta lenses.
  4. Hi all, I was looking around for an Leica M3 or M2 but the prices have gone up sadly ,so I was about to give up till I found this! I got a good deal on it, and I put on a Leica 35mm F3.5 Summaron lens and it really nice, so nice when I compared the pictures to my Nikon SP when I got the film back I just love the color's and contrast of the Leica and Yashica/nicca set-up I sold the Nikon SP. It has a good feel and heft it's a good camera.
  5. I have the second version of the AF 50mm f1.8 (non-D) and an manual Nikkor 28mm f2.8 it's really good on digital manual focus and all. I'm not really a lens guy but I'll looking into other glass.
  6. I don't know I alway's think there's room for SLR's for people who want them. They might be more in limited but they're be there.
  7. Your D800 fell apart I'm sorry to hear about that, I had this dream that I was doing a photo shoot and I pulled a D800 out of my bag and said oh this is nice. Back to the D3 I just never went for the MP race either I think the highest I had was a Sony A7II at 24 mp's it was nice the body was odd but as long as it focuses sharp and the colors are good I'm happy.
  8. I only got one right, hey maybe if he used some older Leica lenses that would of change thing's.
  9. Hi all, After awhile shooting with a old Canon EOS1DS camera I just missed using a Nikon so I found a nice D3, yes I know it's older but I popped an AF50mm F1.8 on it and it still holds up to me there's something about it's quality it's almost film like. I took a few shoots wide open F 1.8 and it looks good. I know some would say hey why didn't you get a "Z" well I'm already invested in a Leica and a Fuji, so this D3 fill's the SLR gap that was missing.
  10. Looks great, I was looking at a few of the F2 lenses.
  11. It's back on again, someone put a winning bid on it put never paid, so it's back on again.
  12. Hi all, It's nice to get into a bit of Leica again, here's a test shot with the lens on the A7II (sorry) will add some with the Yashica YF camera soon.
  13. Thanks that's good to know, do you like one over the other?
  14. Hi all, Does anyone have experience with new batteries from Watson or Wasabi for the EOS1DS, I know I could get used original ones but I don't know if they will last. Thanks
  15. Ebay, the seller had the bottom one but found the top one's
  16. Thank you for the info, it has a hood and I did get him down more because if the seller said light haze in which could be cleaned out if need be, I've been looking for the 2.8F but the prices the lowest is $1399.00 or so and it's just so crazy prices now it's so bad for us.
  17. I think I found a lens, an Leica 35mm f3.5 Summaron, it's a later model come with caps and a real Leica hood. Less than $700.00 U.S..
  18. They put an advance lever on there, why didn't Leica do that.
  19. I have to get a screw mount lenses, so many choices Leica (expensive), Canon and Voigtlander there many others.
  20. Still not as bad as M mount lenses, what happen to those prices, someone or some group like Dr. Evil said we're going to raise prices on all the Leica stuff He,He,!
  21. Hi all, I found this on ebay this weekend and I'm pretty shocked. it's a cool Leica copy made by Yashica Nicca. I found a few things and youtube about it but it's really nice plus I could get lot's of screw mount lenses for it. If anybody has more info about it let me know.
  22. I agree, it wasn't a class act, ebay annoys me they tell buyers it's a binding contract but Sellers do what they want.
