The Plan

As I’ve mentioned before I have what they call Gear Acquisition Syndrome when it comes to cameras. Well I’ve decided to buy the camera that may put and end to that - a Leica. I can’t afford a new Leica of any sort but I can get a used one for fairly cheap. So that is what I am going to do. I’ve found a good deal on a Leica M2 and I’ll be ordering tomorrow. I’ll also be adding a Voigtlander 50mm f/2.5 lens to my collection for it as well.

I was also considering a screwmount Leica like the IIIf but decided that a camera that old might be a bit of work to use. I’ll probably end up getting one someday.
