Smile That is really , really nice ! Do you have time to put each camera into own post in Equipment Gallery ? If yes please do it and put camera name as post in title. It will be more search able by search engines and attract more people.

Yashica CCN Wide with Yashinon DX 35mm f1.8 lens



being on a dismally slow dail up connection it has taken me over an hour to view all the RF cameras shown here, but there was no way I could NOT have...amoebahydra must have the best collection in the univers Shocked Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

WOW!! Shocked

I was FLOORED by that outstanding collection of rangefinders. Very Happy

That has to be the best collection of rangefinders I have seen.

Oh my God!!! Are you a professional collector?
You must have spent a fortune on your items!
I have never seen such a fantastic collection of RF cams in the hands of a single person!!
This is completely overwhelming!!!


Having a lot of anything does not equate to happiness. Buddhism talks of the hungry ghost syndrome where no matter how much one consumes one can not get enough. I sincerely hope that the poster in question is not plagued with this awful debilitating condition

I guess that there are many hungry ghosts here in this forum. Wink

Good point re Buddhism.

To a degree collecting is a disease. I should know I suffer from this. It is a matter of being owned by your things rather than owning them. When I start to feel that way is when I start to sell.

Its hard to resist these rangefinders though. They can be so cheap (most of them) that it is easy to buy 2-3 for parts to make one work.

Amoebahydra's collection is a planet killer...I'm thinking of writing some sonnets...

Certainly takes the wind out of my sails to post snaps of my scuffed-up little bits. Laughing

Andreas, damn envious of this:

Lens even more interesting than camera very early post war made in 1945 I think , made from aluminium instead of brass. After war this was natural resource , not only this is interesting , Jena factory was stolen by Russians, so not made there for sure. In my theory probably made in Stuttgart just like camera , but before this factory made lenses with Opton label.
