A new SLR or not?

[Tom Hoskinson]

GAS requires no rationalization or justification.

Just step right off onto the slippery slope!

Take two Gas-X, and call us in the morning.


P. S. GET A HASSY! That would be sweet. You already have the RR of 35mm, why not the same for MF?

Hi Chris,
I got a Hassy,a 500 C/M second hand and I used it for years. I sold it for a Pentax 67II and I am not going to come back... Too times in assistance, the first..., and too money for repairing it despite its legendary solidity.
Not a great experience, but great photographically.

Hi Apeiron,

I have a good F5, just serviced, you can have for 100 euros plus postage

I've had it for 18 months and it's a great camera!

Just be good to go a good home and stop getting dusty in my darkroom!

Cheers,

Andy

I feel drawn to Nikon F5 and I try to convince myself that I'll use it as a second body It' s rather a desire, and you know about what I'm talking about..., also considering good price now. I have to say however that they ask me about 700 euro, not a painless price.
What do you think?

apeiron,

I'm surprized you didn't satisfy your "desire" and go for the F5 for 100 euro. Who buys "new" anymore? Not me!

Hi,
and, finally, I bought a F100... sincerely satisfied, very very very much
with 50/1,4 permanently on it. Just to share with you...
I like it, very very much. Its shutter noise too
