Quite tempted by their poncey Moleskine case thing.
Gary Voth Photography: The Forgotten Lens
"Why you should ditch that zoom for a classic 50mm ‘Normal’ lens". (I’d go further and say you should ditch the SLR in favour of a rangefinder…)

All very well until you find out the price. (Over three grand.)

there is nothing like a convert! - although in your defence you were a rangefinder and prime lens man with the contax. the difference is that the contax wouldn’t let you focus (or focus itself) whereas the Epson won’t do anything unassisted.

I didn’t convert, really - Contax/Rollei/silly Lomo are the only cameras I’ve ever used.

Never got the hang of that SLR I had years ago - an Olympus, was it? It’s in my wardrobe at the Round House if you want to plunder it for lenses to use with your fancy adapter thingy!
