Kowa Six MM - a photo on Flickriver

Kowa Six MM

            I've been waiting for this to come back from a CLA, and now I'm quite happy to see it.  The 35mm f:3.5 is a rather rare lens.  I had one in the '90s, but it went away in one of my earlier purges.  I found this Six MM body with five lenses, the 250mm, 150mm, 85mm, 55, and the 35mm over a year ago, the 85 and 35 shown here needed shutter work, but I kept waiting to send them off.  Since they were going in I had the body also given a fresh tune-up.
Now I have to decide whether to shoot it, or offer it up.  I haven't been shooting much film lately. I do have several other medium format cameras I can use, but there's something about having that 35mm lens.
