A lens bag on ebay this evening - about 4 dollars and two weeks wait for it to get here from China.

I couldn't find one small enough for my Jupiter 8 locally.

If you enjoy your visits to E-P1.net why not donate a dollar or two to help Voyager foot the bill?

That CV 15mm is something I've been wanting for a while for my rangefinders and my E-P2.

My latest gear is a leather case for my E-P2 scored off of ebay. I'll use the half-case while shooting and the cover when it's in my gear bag. It's built to fit the kit zoom but the Panny 20mm fits just fine too.

The latest acquisition for me was that little HOYA HMC ZOOM & MACRO 75-205 1:4. I have not got any picture with it as it is a Canon FD mount and I don't have the adapter yet. I got it for GBP4 and postage UK - BG was GBP 5 more. I had no idea what mount it was before it arrived.

Great buy! That lens sells for quite a bit used actually. I need to go to more garage sales.

It's a very fine lens, but so far I find myself using it more with film. I got used to the CV21/4 as 'normal lens' on my E-P1.

Nice case!

Yep, the Takumar SMC 105mm f/2.8 is pretty rare.

I bought a cheap counterfit LH-61C lens hood for my 14-150mm on eBay. Hope it will fit, the 14-150mm is due next week.

I got the 14-150mm ED lens  ;D
I'm going out to test it today, so far it's really nice.

Also I got my Rolleiflex back from CLA this week, as well as another one that I bought from Czechoslovakia while I was waiting on it.  :o

Then I took pics of them both using the Lumix 20/1.7 and 2 candles.

well my e bay purchase arrived , and i was pleasantly surprised beyond my expectations , the auction was showcasing a mint aluminum presentations case with 110 outfit 18 ,24 50 lenses winder flash and filters, all is minty

the seller almost as an afterthought mentioned he was throwing in a camera bag with extra user body flash and winder and assorted other related items
oh and a 20-40 2.8 110 zoom and a 70mm 2.8 110 tele ... which  as it turned out , are mint

what was not in the description was the soligor tiny 1.7 teleconverter
for 110 , an item that is offered on  e bay by itself from time to time, also their were a nice set of filters 49mm for the 70 and the 20 40 zoom
an extra 50 and 18 as well all packed in a lowepro  edit 140+ bag that looks brand new

the zoom and the 70 are a build quality  above the standard primes made of metal and with very nice zoom and focus action.... still quite small for what they offer.

ha :) :) :)ppy with the new toys  :) :) :)
