Camera Club swap meets in big cities are a great place to buy stuff too (or at least used to be before eby). Probably my best deal ever was at one of those. There was a guy selling a Mamiya SB-67 outfit. He had a Polaroid back for it. I asked what he wanted. He said $50. So I bought it. The back that also fit my Mamiya Universal Press was going for about $250 used back then, and my friendly local dealer gave me $60 for the "P" adapter that I did not need on the Universal. So total cost $-10.

On the other hand, I recall from a couple years back that someone on the list (I forget who it was) was given, yes I said given, a Linhof Super Technika outfit. Luck like that I never had.

that's only when you also buy the Hoya 49mm skylight filter (which I'm
letting go for a mere USD19,990, driveaway) I'm selling.

The 'romantic' look was a bit odd. It was shot using John's visibly clean M
50 1.7, *ist D. Not sure what caused that soft focus look. Maybe the
exposure was a bit too long..

Cheers,
Ryan (in Brissie, what about you?)
