I really don't have a need for downsizing. I'm still in the house that
my wife and I designed in 1967. That's not to say that I don't have a
lot of stuff that I SHOULD dispose of, but my photo gear doesn't enter
in to that consideration. But, I have proof that one can hold on to a
lot of unneeded "things/junk" over 50 years in one house. :-(

I didn’t sell them for value, they’re invaluable in my eyes. Just that I need
spare room and space - getting rid of my old skins before moving after retirement :-)
And then, I’ll have time to shoot again !!!

Hi Philippe,
I'm too much of a tightwad to buy the newer APO lenses, but the Leica-R 50, 60
and 90, along with my old Telyt 250/4, will be the ones I keep, because they
offer a lot of fun at a minimum cost. I have a few Fujinon lenses for AF work,
and they seem to be very capable. Most of my other stuff is worth more to me
as memories than it would bring in resale value.
Thanks for looking.

Wonderful!
Keep them coming please.

When I began collecting Leica-R lenses, I knew I wanted the Elmarit 60 Macro.
The one I have was purchased from the daughter of the previous owner, who,
before his death, used it almost exclusively to photograph flowers. I have
continued his tradition.
The Fujifilm X-T2 sensor finally gives me a body that matches up well with the
lens. I purposely made the enlarged image larger than usual so that the viewer
can appreciate what this combination can produce. Hand-held, down on shaky
knees.
