What I want for Christmas.

CLICKME for details

Well, we Jews do not actually celebrate Christmas.  Jesus is not reeally our thing.  As it happens though I do have a birthday coming, Jan 1st!

All my life, well since college, I wanted a better camera then I could afford.  Usually this want meant a Hasselblad.  For those who do not know, in the film days the Hasselblad used 6 cm x 6 cm (2 1/4″ x 2 1/4″) film to make awesome images no puny 35 mm cameras could approach.  In those days a ‘blad cost thousands of dollars.  Hell, I could not even afford a Nikon, instead I bought the low priced Nikkormat line because I knew the Nikkor lenses, not the body, were what I needed.

Still,there were those amazing Zeiss, Carl Zeiss !!, lenses on the ‘blads.  My wonderful parents did buy a Bronica for me, bot the Nikkor lenses on the Bronics were no match for those Zeiss lenses.

So, to all my loved ones today, here is another chance!
