Well, I thought the 3 way test last week might have kicked up more of a fuss than it did. I suspect we're so used to AP panning oly that nobody cares any more! (Anyone checked the release dates of those three models? Heh heh...)

But lets here it for Halina: I've got a Halina x35 from around 1950. I rescued it from a pub, where it kept the door to the bar open, and was handy for the bouncer who used it to add a bit of iron to his clenched fist if things got a bit hectic.

I keep it under the bed in case of burglars, it appears to be cast from a solid lump of metal, and is as far as I can tell indestructible.

Seriously folks, when I'd cleaned the lens up (probably destroying the coating, if it ever had any) it worked a treat, still use it, got an ASA 400 B/W film in there now.

Hey, here's some pics: just look at that polished cast iron. And you thought the E3 was tough.
