On this week I could buy locally a Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 80mm f2.8 MC + a Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar 75mm f1.5 M42 lens! I am so happy I was so lucky I could buy my third copy of Biotar 75mm lens looks brand new never mounted. Both are one of the rarest and expensive lenses from Carl Zeiss Jena products line. This lenses are my saving account Smile

Can you explain a bit more this word "serendipitious" ? I didn't find in dictionary.

@ Attila. I made it up from the word "serendipity" which is used to describe a fortunate occurrence - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serendipity

@ Carsten: Laughing It's an affliction that most of us suffer from; "Serendipitosity Collectoritis..... Wink

In Italy we call this in a different way but it's not really a decent word so I refrain from quoting it Wink

We've got a phrase over here too but like yours, it's not very nice either.... Wink Laughing
