John...
My C*non toting friend and I did as well. We arrived at about 11:15, and
after the slow wander up and down about two aisles, I looked at my phone (I
don't wear a watch... me bad) and discovered that it was already 12:40.
Apologies for missing you. You're in good company, though. Was going to
meet another fellow there (he's a photographer for 'Homes for Sale', one of
those booklets you see at 7-elevens and supermarkets) and I wound up dissing
him as well. None of us (even my C*non friend) found anything we couldn't
live without. Congrats on your semi-Fang (or was it a hemidemisemiFang?).
Jim, hat in hand.

Subject: [OM] puyallup camera show & minor fang
Well I droped by the Puyallup camera show today. Went
down one row of tables then up the next, started down
the 3rd row when a wooden box with a sign caught my
eye "all 35mm lenses 1/2 price" I pawed through the
pile of very pedestrian 3rd party lenses and there
almost buried sat a 28 f3.5 silvernose with correct
metal hood attached. The sticker said $40 so I snached
up the lens, checked glass, focus, and apature quickly
then handed it to the vendor "20 bucks, right?" asked
I, he looked at the sticker..."20 will do it" he says.
The lens was a little dusty but cleaned up real nice.
The only other item I picked up from him was a 135
f3.5 Vivitar preset with a TA-12 attached for $5, I
only got this because surely someone on the list needs
a Pen F to T-mount adapter and it looked like a good
deal, if anybody needs one of these let me know off
list. John Robison
