Meet my first Instax Wide conversion, #LomoPressTall. Pairing a Lomograflok to a Mamiya Press camera was *far* harder than I expected. But it works (with limitations), and I rather enjoy shooting this high aspect ratio film vertically.

Why have I been so bad at posting? I've been busy designing & testing a camera! I'm working on a hybrid 3D printed camera body that will couple the front plate & rangefinder of a Mamiya Press camera with a 3D printed body to allow for film backs of many sorts.

Starting fresh is so weird. Where do I begin? From the beginning or where I am now?

Let's go with now.

Hi, I'm Ben, and I like to convert medium format cameras to shoot modern instant film. They are very chonky bois and I love them.
