Just a heads up, if you have any button cell batteries that are bulging please dispose of them immediately. I was tinkering with my XA and one rolled down my leg and behind me. Shortly afterwards it popped and scared the crap out of me.

A few shots from the rebuilt Olympus 35RC. I would say that focus was pretty spot on and the rangefinder good.

Some nice pics there!
I've been doing nothing for too long. At work I am filming a training video on my iphone, edited the main section the other day, need to add a couple of other bits. Did it in 1080P and 60fps, looks amazing.
Off to Yorkshire Sculpture Park on Tuesday, not sure how long we're there for before I have to go to work. Also a guy down the road in Worksop is selling his camera collection, it's on Gumtree but if you email him he sends you a PDF of a load of little thumbnails. Asked about prices of a few, most of them are fairly uninteresting, but he has a late Box Tengor, a Hunter Gilbert box camera that actually looks pretty cool, and maybe just have a fiddle with a few others as well. An Exa 500 which looks nice but I suspect is a PITA to use. Quite a few Russian RFs. His prices weren't cheap but he didn't want too much for the Hunter Gilbert so I might just check it out. I don't have enough cameras, after all.

Love the wallpaper. And those are pretty good results from the 35rc - a good rebuilding job.

Thanks Yoko, glad I nailed the focus. I wouldn't mind a box tengor, have been keeping an eye out for one. Still got a roll of Pan F 50 to develop as well.

Made a start on my room. The desk is from IKEA and is height adjustable with a crank, can use it as a sitting or standing desk/workbench. I also got one of the glass display cabinets for the living room to put my best cameras in. The funky wallpaper will be coming soon, picked up two rolls earlier.

Your very own playroom. Looking good. Wish I had one.

Oh, and we got one of these for the living room as mentioned above.

https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/...-art-60363173/

I had to adapt my old desk to fit in the corner. As the room is above the stairs it has a 45 degree cut out for when you walk up the stairs. But I now have proper space for my scanner and 3D printer. Will post a pic up.

Have been busy this weekend unpacking and sorting silly little things like broken smoke alarm, blown bulbs etc, which most people would sort as a matter of course.
