    New Family member!

    Life is good, I got a job last week, and the employer is willing to let me keep my part time job with the race car sanctioning body! Trolling through Craig's list I found an old VOIGTLANDER Vito B for $50.00. She is a clean little unit and can't wait to put a roll through it! There is a cemetery just behind the work place. Weather permitting I will get a chance to shoot with it this week.

    Congratulations on the new job, Jimmy, AND the bonus ability to keep your NASCAR job as well! That's awesome news man! I'm definitely looking forward to seeing some shots from the Vito; those Skopar lenses are supposed to be excellent.

    Congrats Jimmy. It is a small world - I picked up a Vito B just before Christmas for $50 also. They are great little cameras and it is now my camera of choice for 35mm film. Sometimes I forget to change the distance setting but that is getting less frequent with increased use. I did pick up a rangefinder for it from the UK but I haven't used it much. Looking forward to seeing some pics from it. Enjoy
