Collected two rolls of test shots from the lab today and one roll turned out to be good news and the other … a total disaster. Let’s have the good news first. Picked up this old LC-A which the previous owner claimed to be producing Lensbaby-like results. Being a big …
Leftovers …
It’s been pouring since late morning and I’m stuck at home after a MRT ride with Fitzand from AMK to Orchard. Running around with him is helping me lose some weight I guess but my back and arms are aching now. Since he’s enjoying his afternoon nap, I scanned some …
A kind of magic
Almost sold this Rollei Magic II TLR away some time ago after owning it for some time. As it’s the only TLR I own that has a meter built-in, and also a cool ‘auto’ setting mode, I decided to give it a try before reconsidering the sale. Using TLRs has …
Madman in the market
How often to do you see someone in the market, carrying a 19 month old boy with a couple of bags of groceries and and at the same time … packing a gun camera? I thought that will be pretty fun, so despite knowing bad lighting conditions and of course …
110 is cute!
Not long ago, a friend gave me an old Kodak Ektra 100 camera which he said was originally trashed in his office garbage bin. Remembering he has a friend who loves such garbage, he picked it up and gave it to me but I did not put it to use …
Squared!
My 2nd try with the Diana+ 35mm back, and this time … the square format with sprocket holes and a roll of expired Provia 100. I’ve also deployed my Diana F+ flash this time ’round, as well as the closeup lens (again?!). As you can see, I’ve improved lots when …
… and it all came crashing down!
Thank God for the few pints of beer this evening, I decided not to kill myself by swallowing 10 rolls of film. Guess what I did!! I loaded a roll of Lomo slide film (ISO100) into my LC-A+ and forgot that the ISO setting on the camera was still at …
Fitzand loves Lomo!
On a fine Saturday morning at the playground with Fitzand, I decided to load my LC-A+ with a roll of cheap expired supermarket brand negative I got off eBay (called ‘Living Colors’) and let Fitzand have his first feel of being trigger happy. He loves pressing on the shutter button …
Diana’s bigger appetite
Some says it’s probably the best thing since sliced bread nachos and beer … a 35mm back for the Diana+/Diana F+ cameras! Without thinking twice, I ordered one and shoved it onto my Diana F+ for some 35mm fun on it. With a roll of expired Superia 400, I took …
Voigtlander Perkeo II – Test roll
It was a purchase I made some time ago, and I’ve had doubts if I’ll like using the camera. This first roll took me quite a while to finish (you can see some are from my trip to Malaysia months ago) and I’ve gotten pretty comfortable at using it. I …
