PDMLers are innoculated against expecting new things=good, old
things=bad. We don't have that much choice about new things, since they
so seldom occur. That's why we fiddle around with 40 year old m42 lenses
and talk about lots of stuff other than new gear. I think this is a good
thing.

A 37 year old Olympus 35SP took this
yesterday as I was testing it:

Bear in mind this is ISO 400 film and taken from
a highly compressed 1.5MP 'Picture CD' scan.
I can't wait to re-scan the negative as a 15MP
Tiff! I have to hook the Minolta back up, too
busy playing camera repairman right now. ;-(
