Vintage here means 1950s or earlier.
The modern 149s are just smooth wet writers. Seems to me they make 149s primarily as a signature pen nowadays...
If you want good writers out of modern pens, you need to send them to good nibmeisters for customization... But the resell value will be affected as it's not factory original anymore (for LE anyway).

Cameras... Bring it on! Not here in pen forum though.
