http://www.flickr.com/photos/2585098...7614991236917/ My 1934 Leica II with the 1936 f2 Summar -- I DID have a IIIa with coated f3.5 Elmar with this one but it was stolen in a 'drive-by' theft as I was eating lunch at Thorpe Park, Surrey and my camera bag was on the ground beside me ! I got the older models from a Clergyman. I have some later models, a 1965 M2 and a 1986 M6, two 35mm f1.4 Summilux whcih came with the bodies, one German, one Canadian, a 1957 90mm f4 collapsible Elmar and a 1989 f2 Summicron. http://www.flickr.com/photos/25850987@N03/3323404276/ I hope to join in this Group now I have found you !
I started my photography with pentax *istD(1st digital body) and moved to my beloved LX, one of best mf slr all kinds. For financial reason, I had to sadly let LX go. A few years later, I started photography again with leica iiic and now use m3. Glad to meet who use pentax and leica together.
I'm another Pentax and Leica user. Started with a Pentax MX about 20 years ago, then moved to the Pentax 67 and 645 camera systems, which I still shoot with now and then. Bought my first Leica (R8) last year. Just joined this group tonight. Gary Eagle River, Alaska http://www.flickr.com/photos/21743712@N02/
