    Good morning to everyone, wherever you are in the world...hmm, after all these years I realised that sentence should have a comma.

    II recently bought another GM5, now I own 2 of them and in total it is my 3rd GM5 😎 This one is red, which I’ve always wanted a red or olive green. It was advertised as spares and repairs because it doesn’t turn on. Someone else won the auction but refused to pay. He offered me the GM5 instead. It actually works perfectly, just with a 700 shutter count. It only needed a full battery. Unfortunately, it has a dead internal battery. The GM5 I sold had the same problem but after I left it with a full battery for a while it came back to life. If it doesn’t work I’ll replace its internal battery. It’s a simple procedure and I have a friend who’s very good with electronics repairs.

    This is a SOOC shot, I used its Dynamic Monochrome filter.
