Oh, so you swapped a hairdryer for a nice camera  ;)

Good deal IMO.

I've held that camera. And I'm thousands of miles away.

Weird.

I dont suppose you have a cow up for grabs do you Skorj?  I have a handful of magic beans I could let you have.

I did notice you're downsizing...
That scooter looked pretty sweet...
If you're downsizing plans work as I think, I'd definitely trade you this camera for my old Yashica FR3...  ;D

nice - you don't see those around too much (at least on this side of the water) and when you do the prices are astronomical !

a walk around town with a sexy camera is always better than a ride on a noisy scooter any day in my world!

Good trade! :)

Show off! The Instant Press is possibly the best version of this type of folder, if only because of the faster lens. Enjoy! Skj.

Dang-it you guys!
Just when I thought I was flush with cameras and couldn't possibly love another, you show this stuff.

Santa, we need to have another talk! :)

Hey, looks like a great deal. Beautiful camera, had to Google the camera, which took me right to filmwasters for a review of the camera. The scooter looks nice too.

Ha! There are a few cameras like that these days I hear! Not a bad thing I suppose. I'll miss the Joker, it wasn't ridden very much lately, so its gone to a good loving home...
