I would like to come and join you and have a drink in the pub Gyuri but right now unfortunately my life is having much bad news coming into it so I am not in a good mood to come visit. I hope the others will join you for some fun in the pub.
Well, it's strange, I want to go this pub mostly, if I have a bad mood, just like now.
We aren't the same, and it's good.

Hehehehe. We need to speak. 🙂
ALPAs - Very sexy and sort of limited. Beautiful looking, but essentially a metal frame that allows large format lens to be attached on front and digital back in the rear. Although it has really nice wood handles... 🙂
It might be interesting to carry it around, but the question is why. Sort of comparable to old Linhof Press camera but with no possibility to tilt or shift lens standard. If one is to carry it around, than I would rather do it with full bodied camera. Using large format lenses on it... hm, they are less sharp than lenses built for medium format. Many years ago Sinar made an architectural camera Sinar Handy, but with limited success. Linhof had better one that allowed for tilts shifts and swings on a classical but foldable L frames. As you know I love large format, and I do admire Alpas for their look, but from usability perspective I am not sold - too expensive for a metal frame.
Thank you for a nice Leica story.

Was thinking about the original 35mm slr types. I had them all from the 5 through to the 11Si..........they used extremely pure and thin silk blinds which rotted far too soon...otherwise very nice but quirky cameras and beautiful Swiss workmanship too
For really useful MF I would prefer a simple MF Arca monorail with a Good digital back.

Yes I know, 35s were nice. Unfortunately not any more produced, just like many others. Contax is gone, Rollei is gone, Hasselblad is plastic junk made by Fuji... Arca is very nice, love it. I am Sinar P2 with Phase 1, and Schneider when in studio. Short of studio it is Contax with Zeiss lenses and P1 or Canon. Do not take me wrong I love that Alpa medium, it is really cool body, just limited what it does. But if it fits ones needs than quite elegant solution.
Since the first ride in Vladimirs car, I think of you as a couch rug.

Thank you for that video Gyuri!! My youngest new sister Felicia rescues dachshunds and has ten of them at her house right now.... 😀😀😀
I'm swinging from branch to branch of my family tree and one of my cousins thinks that she might have located a sibling of mine.... We are still trying to figure out this puzzle because some of the pieces are wrong and other one's are missing. But it is very exciting!!! 😉
