First, let”s start by searching Ebay for Leica Summilux:

[phpbay]Leica Summilux, 85, “78997″[/phpbay]

Question: Are the Japanese Brands (Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Etc.) any good?

Are they as good as my Swedish Hasselblad 503cw with Danish Phaseone p45 back and German-made Zeiss Glass?

And also my 35mm Leica MP and Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH Lens?

The Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH is considered the best 50mm lens by the way.
Is a Nikon any better than a Lomo?

Answer: They’re not designed to be as good as a Hasselblad. Canon, Nikon and so on are in the consumer camera business not the very high level pro side.

Although they do make cameras that many pros use, Hasselblad, as I think you already know, is a camera designed for the very high level pro who can then charge very large prices for their work.

Another excellent place to find Leica Summilux is on Amazon… They have way more than just books!

Question: What is the best old style film camera to buy?

I am looking to take some pictures that look like they are from the end of the top 70 80. I bought some old film kodakrome and now have a camera. I like taking photos but the lens R3 Leica 50mm Summilux is too expensive. Are there any other good old film cameras like the Leica images not?

Answer: If you can beat Olympus 35mm SLR, I would like to know why. They have been manufacturing more cameras from Canon or Nikon and I have used for over 40 years. I still using cameras made in 1967 – every day.

Question: Is a nikon d80 compatible with a metz 45 cl-1 flash?

Hi there, i own a d80, it has a hot shoe connection and no sync cable input. I was thinking of buying a AS- 15 hotshoe adapter which will allow me to plug a sync lead in. However, i believe the d80 is i-TTL, and the metz flash is non-TTL, meaning the metz flash has to be hand calibrated for the perfect exposure.

Are these units compatible or am i going to destroy a nice camera/ flash?

metz 45 ct-1 flashgun: http://www.metzflash.co.uk/pages/metz15.htm

I thought id ask on here before ringing up nikon and metz, and being put on hold for hours

Answer: It should work. However, unless you either already own the Metz or can get an incredible deal, I’d seriously look at a TTL flash, either by Nikon or someone else. It makes things much easier.

When I got my D-70, I also got an SB-800 Nikon flash.I don’t worry about anything except the image I want.

(I remember when I used my first “auto”(non-TTL) flash. It was great. However, when I started, pros still used flash BULBS!)

Good luck!
