Apparently it’s Black Friday. Well my inbox started telling me that over a week ago. Rampant consumerism gone wild I suspect. Unfortunately I am a sucker for shopping just like the next person. And a good deal is sometimes too much to pass up on.
Black Friday is actually the day after thanksgiving when all the workers chucked a sickie because they over ate and drank the day before… lol Isn’t it funny what marketers can convert into sales…
So I thought I’d get in on the action and offer some of my unused camera equipment that I have lying around… buying used items is a way of recycling them, repurposing them… giving them another life… so if anything interests you in the list bellow, please reply back to me and I will offer it to you for a good price…
Most items are in beautiful condition… some aren’t holding up so well. If you are genuinely interested I will be very honest about thier history and worth.
Fuji GFX 50s, 63mm f2.8, right angle viewfinder, two batteries and a Mitakon 85mm f1.2 Lens, and really right stuff fitted base plate. Immaculate.

oh.. it’s day four without power… went to the bathes for my hot shower. Still 25,000 homes without electricity in Sydney. Work in this area hasn’t even started. I took Momo for a longer walk to Castle Cove and there are cables missing everywhere…
