Minox 35EL
Is it possible to live without a Minox 35 - I thought so and sold my 35PL some years ago. I quickly saw, that this idea was not so good. I decided to get me another Minox 35, but now I wanted to go back to the start, to the 35EL. No unnecessary gimmicks like backlight compensation, just the famous Makrolon chassis and the Minotar lens. In fact there were improvements in later models, first of all the winding lever, which is a pain at the 35EL.

Update: The Minotar is now used digital too!

Agfa Trolix
Agfa Box 14, gebaut von 1936-1940. Eingebauter Gelbfilter, zwei Blenden, Zeiten Moment und B. Hergestellt aus dem bakelitähnlichen Kunststoff Trolit(an). Schönes Art Deco-Design, aber extrem anfällig für Kratzer und Bruch.
Fortepan 400; Negative mit einer selbstgebauten Durchlichteinheit gescannt, deshalb schrottig.
Olympus 35ED
Another underrated Olympus rangefinder; Program AE 4s -1/800s(!). Small, handy, heavy. The shutter is very silent, the lens quality is great, as it can be expected by an Olympus of this class. I replaced the mercury batteries with two LR44 cells and filled the spare room in the battery chambers with brass foil.
