I was going to write a quick rave on the Sydney Camera markets this
Sunday past, wherein, I scored:
* A cute as pie Sekonic L-VI meter
* A slightly dodgy Leica MC clip-on; not sure if the metering is that
reliable, but it makes my M3s look the business
* A near mint black Spotmatic F, with a jewel-like SMC Tak 35/3.5 and a
fun-guy 50mm/1.4 Super-tak that I might use to practice lens disassembly
using this page:

(my, the spottie is gorgeous in it's glossy finish)
Anyhoo...OT...today, I was enquiring about my Voigt R2A which is with
Voigtlander pusher for service (he's going to send it back to Cosina for
free). He happen to mention he only had two 50mm/1.1 Noktons left, and
Cosina were only going to send just 5 more. That would be it for a while
until the next production run. Seeing how the price is cheaper than even
in Japan or the US, I couldn't resist. I now have #293
More details on the lens here: http://www.cameraquest.com/voigt_5011.htm
Have a gig at the this week at the fab, but very dark Hopetoun hotel on
Friday, which should be a good proving ground for Nokkie.
