Fyi that last pic is the magic of the Rolleiflex.  I was walking minding my own business when these kids freaked out when they saw my camera, and asked if I would take their pic.  This happens all the time with a Rolleiflex!  

Huss when u shot this, what was the aperture? Not widest open right?

Can't beat that. So much texture and color in this. It pops!

As a long term Rolleiflex user I fully agree. Strange how the possible introduction of a new Leica M has morphed to a Twin Lens Reflex 🙂

Might as well since Leica seems to be in no hurry to make the big announcement.

Rolleiflex 3,5C. Just a quiet "tic", and your picture is taken. Can´t beat that.

This thread keeps on giving, now we are discussing TLRs? Ahah I do love TLRs : ) If you wanna get an old model that feels good as new, this guy does an amazing work: http://magicflexcamera.com

I got one camera from him with the old f2.8 Xenotar lens and when I no longer used it I sold it to a reputed dealer here, and they rated as the most mint Rolleiflex they had seen in their lives. 

Anyway, new M6? Any more rumors? It’s mid October already.

No more rumors, this morning I talked with  someone that confirmed me that it's a New Leica M6 (he's not sure but probably Black Paint) mid-end October will be announced 

So it's an MP 🙃

Yes I heard that from someone in the supermarket queue who had been told it by his next-door neighbour who, in turn had got it from someone on the bus who had it from the local butcher. So it must be true.

Nah - I'm thinking of making my own 6x12 or 6x17 fixed focus landscape panoramic camera. I have a few bits of mahogany around....

The kid in the turquoise cap was not it seems

 He was visibly annoyed that the girls were more into the Rolleiflex  than him...

Didn't help that I called him Baby Le Bron.

Both are classics.  And when the new M6 is just going to be an MP, well... we gotta talk about something!

There is a thread here for all the wonderful non-leica stuff and old systems, full of great information and awesome pics. Classic cameras that are not Leica/Leitz produced:
 

 

 

I would have never thought to look for a discussion thread on non-Leica cameras in the 'Leica Collectors and Historica' section of the forum.  I wonder if it should be moved somewhere else, like 'Barnack's Bar'.
