[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I borrowed a Leicaflex SL camera with a 60mm/f2.8 Macro Elmarit lens on it from a friend over the weekend. What an impressive camera! The camera and lens are over 30 years old, but everything still works smoothly. The camera is built like a tank! It looks like it will last at least a hundred years even if used daily! The lens is also a solid piece of precision optical equipment. I am seriously tempted to get a similar used outfit for macro photography, which is something that I would not be able to do with my M6 TTL/35 Summicron ASPH combo. So, any LUGers out there who would be willing to sell me an SL (or SL2) with a 60 macro lens in excellent condition and at a reasonable (ha ha!) price?!
