Oh, My. God. I've hit the jackpot. A 72MP camera, 5-axis stabilisation 5K ultra HD, 3.95mm f1.8 lens. Just look at that lens — and the flash. That's like a lighthouse. Amazing. It even came with a 64GB microSD card.

Front of the 72MP camera. Just look at that flash! The classic white 72MP digital scamera.

Had a go at cleaning the Photavit IV yesterday. Thought there might have been an unexposed film in the canister so opened it in the dark bag. There wasn't.
An open Photavit canister. Around the edges is old sticky tape and inside is a small broken piece of film which was once taped to the film spool. That tape is well decayed.

Mazzy Star, 'Into Dust'. Was an advert for Virgin Media over a decade ago. Amazing track, and advert, too.

I've got far too many ideas swimming around at the moment, and I definitely don't need any more cameras. What's that Mr Postman? For me?
A Wirgin Edixa IA 35mm stereo camera.

Until the Charmera is back in stock, picked up a little Keychain camera to keep me going. Reduced in Continente from 19,99€ to 11,99€ as well so got two. One to play with and perhaps, one to circuit bend.
#Keychain #Charmera
Two little Keychain cameras in their packaging, one in pink, one in purple, these are Photo Creator Mini Cam. I understand these are 3MP cameras, so should actually be far superior in resolution compared to the Kodak Charmera. 🤣🤣🤣

Remember remember the 8th of November, the half-frame photos you shot.

Remember remember the deadline to enter the half-frame photos you shot.

Don't be the guy on the 9th of November, crying because you forgot.

FOLKS, TODAY'S THE LAST DAY TO ENTER!!!

The @shittychallenge.bsky.social has spoken, for the first time in the best part of a month, and has the cover image of the profile been changed to the four-lens face of a Nimslo? Could the Elder Gods be clearing Their throats for an announcement? All Praise the Elder Gods!

Too late for the Crappy Commie Camera Party, but this arrived a couple of days ago and I've given it a good cleaning. The Fotopribor SKF-1 stereo adaptor. Made in the 1980s for the Helios-44M 58mm lens. Cleaned and (hopefully) adjusted, just waiting for some nice weather.

10/29/25 Aerochrome Bridge June 2022
#ColorADay #RedWed #Aerochrome
#Landscape #ArtYear #Photography
A photograph of a foot bridge over the Huron river leading to a walking path into the woods of a Michigan park. The image was edited to simulate the look of Kodak infrared slide film. I am experimenting with editing some of my digital images in an attempt to emulate the look of false-color infrared slide film. Kodak Aerochrome, and Ektachrome Infrared EIR films produced surreal landscape images with foliage appearing pink, or red, instead of the normal green color one would expect. These long discontinued film stocks are almost impossible to find these days, and they are incredibly expensive if they do turn up. Digital editing seems to be the most affordable way I can create Aerochrome type images like this one.

October 19 is the start of #FolderWeek. Let’s have a blast with our old folders. I’m going all Kodak this time with my Retina IIIC in 135 and the lovely Duo Six-20 with re-spooled 120 film. I’ve got Double-X in the IIIC. Haven’t decided yet on the film for my Six-20. #BelieveInFilm

Glitches In The Wild During The Rainy Season
A little bit of fun with this post. We're having a few days away at a resort in the Maldives. Normally, at this time of year the weather is warm and sunny, but this year the rainy season is clinging on. As a result, the TV channels were really glitchy, and I couldn't resist recording a few frames. If you are on Mastodon, you can now follow this blog directly.
