Well that was quick - seems I made it too easy!  Yep, my rather tidy (and underused) OM-2n.

The exact make/type for this (rather grubbier) one might be just a smidgeon trickier...

I'd guess its a Hasselblad 80mm chrome C lens?

 

A note on the ME Super. I used to work in a camera shop when I was a student. If I remember correctly, the ME Super with 50mm lens was £129.95 and profit came from selling a filter and case with it. Margins were very tight.

Yet again correct!  Ah well - anyone else like to offer something to puzzle over?

 

Regarding the ME Super, can't remember what I paid for it - bought it second-hand in Norwich somewhere around 1979 or so. Still have it.

I could play this game for a long time with my collection! I won't be able to posy anything for a few hours though.

I'm going to start with something a little older, name this camera, I acquired it recently and have run 2 films through it since then, apart from the fact it is stupidly heavy compared to a modern camera it makes an excellent pocket camera.

 

The lens is fantastically sharp, the second and third photos were taken with it.

I was recently given an ME plus motorwind, unfortunately the camera only operates at 1:125 - I guess I'll just use FP4 and sunny 16.

I will hazard a guess at something from the Zeiss Contax family.

Whoops - meant Zeiss Ikonta!.

[mikemgb]

Not Zeiss.
