New Gear

Got my new camera and new lenses today.

The Zorki is beautiful. Not a scratch on it and everything seems to work good. The Jupiter 8 looks good and and everything seems to be smooth. The aperture ring is pretty loose but it isn’t bad. Here is a picture:

I also received my Leica Elmar 5cm f/2.8 M mount today. It is in really good shape except some cleaning marks on the lens and a tiny spot in the coating. The collapsible lens is very cool and absolutely tiny when collapsed into the body.

And here are a couple more pics of my M2:

This one is now my desktop picture.

Here is the ISO selector on the back of the M2:
