What did you buy today?

In my opinion the best version of them all but that concerns the tv-version wich is about 5 hours long (showed on finnish tv in 5 episodes). The shorter movie version left too many iconic scenes out.
The fighting scenes were quite realistic with explosion NOT being petrol bombs. And very good sound. In one scene where a russian gets shot in the head you hear the "clink" of bullet hitting helmet.
I've been there before. My first degree course had an out of print text book that was essential course book for all three years. Couldn't find anywhere selling them. Before internet selling so my net was spread to secondhand shops I could reach.Finaly after about 10 years of searching every second hand bookshop I've ever come across I've managed to replace my Rodger Philips mushroom book.
Not a hardback this time but that realy doesn't matter.
I'm realy realy happy
About 10 to 15 years I found it at carnforth bookstore. Didn't need it but so tempted with the £20.

A chainsaw sharpening jig. This is gonna save me hours of work and get it perfect every time.
New Lox-On mantle and wick for one of the Aladdin lamps.
Picked up earlier in the week from the parcel drop-off (newspaper kiosk down the street from work): a Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens. This is intended for a full-frame camera, so on my APS-C camera it's the equivalent of an 80mm or 85mm lens, but with the added advantage that (if I've understood correctly) there should be even less vignetting than with a lens designed for an APS-C camera.
Here are some pictures I already posted on another forum a couple of days ago, with it mounted with a 13mm extension ring on a Canon EOS 100D.
No image retouching, just resized to 15% and saved at 75% JPEG quality. The first three are at f/1.4, the last at f/2.8. Open the two images side by side, and you see that there is a slightly greater depth of field in the last one.

Well, not quite today, and not quite arrived, but I have paid for a Seiko Arnie for a gift for a friend going through a bit of a rough patch.

Well that was a very nice thing to do. I have a watch that I received under similar circumstances and it still, to this day, cheers me up.
Lost my old Imco lighter, bought a new one, put on a jacket I haven't worn in ages. What was in the pocket ?
No picture, but now officially on the LK35 bandwagon. Looking forward to getting out and using it.
