It has been maybe decades since I went to a Photographica Show. Photographica is New England’s largest annual, one-day trade show and auction for buying, selling, and appraising antique, vintage, and modern film cameras, lenses, images, and photographic ephemera, held by the Photographic Historical Society of New England (PHSNE). It felt right with my resurgence in film use. I went with the hope of finding a lens cap for my Canon 50mm lens used on my Leica IIIf. I did not find the lens cap, but I did end up with a second lens for the camera — this time a Canon Serenar 35mm f/3.5. I grabbed a few other smaller things, too. Met some great people, reconnected with some old friends, and took in the history. The Leica is ready for the June Middle Ground trip. More images soon with the new lens and the 50mm as well.
