@goatsarah Quite. I have an XE-3. A very good tool, indeed. But that 'industrial' vibe of the Nikon F5, the Canon P, 🤤. The new Fujifilm and those old 35mm place you in charge of the light, the focus, the moment, the composition (of course),…

The only other analogy I can make is with woodworking tools. The old British Record planes had the right weight, the right feel, quality for several generations…

@goatsarah And I just got the Rollei 35 S. A minter from Switzerland. I'm still smarting from the import duties and processing fees. I've coveted one since I was 11 years old when I had an Olympus Trip 35 and my dad's friends (all spooks - "diplomats") had Rollei 35's. I now have my dad's office-approved Pentax MX and Minolta 16 sub-miniature.
