I have to disappoint you: I will NOT give away my D700 + zeiss combo
However, if you like film, I might have an interesting camera to give away ...
aWWW that is a shame.
I actually prefer film and have a couple of 35mm film cameras and a Mamiya 645. Your kind offer is appreciated greatly, although I'd maybe not get as much use as I'd like. I do sometimes pick up a camera simply as an object sometimes.
My daughter got me back into film, she has never enjoyed digital and it is possible that for the youngster today film is very trendy.
The aesthetics of film can for myself alone be beautiful before the content is even considered.

sadly in my country, there are no real pro labs anymore who handle film, for that reason I even had to go to digital.
the cam I offer is probably great for a hipster; you can give it to your daughter, or use it for yourself to feel like a hipster. It is greatly pocketable as well ...

(aww that is a shame) Meaning I am disappointed you can not give me your D700 and Ziess
I thought WWW was a shortage other then the obviously WWW.
It must be the heat.
Zeiss remains with me. I've bought them for life.
regarding the film one, offer stands. you won't be disappointed
Ok Olaf, I'll ask my daughter if that is ok. She is abroad for a while, student working break for six weeks.
If I started again buying camera gear I think I'd get one nice body and two superb lenses. I've frittered away on all sorts of gear some decently good, some ok, but it has taken me sometime to fall into an area which I am very happy with. Yet I do enjoy the challenge of getting the best out of what I have and am happy with that.
Dp1 m @ f2.8 iso 400. Quite a dark place to photograph, yet I like the subdued colours at the higher iso's of the Merrill's. Yes maybe blotchy when looked closely, does not bother me.
Quite like the scenario's of these two.
I always (and still do) fancied a Xpan. Recently I almost bought one although film processing is a pain in Croatia. As the Merill gives me enough pixels I thought I can crop heavily to achieve at least the same format (24:65).
Below some images regarding unprocessed food. Props provided by my neighbours, background is a plain white paper. Camera DP3M @ f2,8. Processing with SPP and NIK (border).
Initially looked like a softer fruit maybe a wonky plum, I see now. Sadly we are so used to regulation size fruit here to our detriment. There must be an awful lot of wasted fruit.
Looks delicious Olaf and suspect when juicier and plumper would have been more so.
