Since I picked up a fantastic condition Canon EOS-3 35mm camera a couple weeks ago - I felt the overwhelming urge to own a digital in the same mount. I have done this with my Nikon D800 and Nikon F4S, and to a lesser degree my Nikon F2 & FT2. I have a Minolta a7 35mm, and the matching Minolta...

Luckily such a camera store doesn’t exist within reasonable proximity to my house. The nearest similar is in Tucson (Monument Camera.) If there was a shop like with closer than a few hour drive - more of my already limited salary would find a new home. That being said, I would rather spend the...

Great shot! Little buddy looks like he has some attitude in that pic, lol.

Companies like Mint Camera have quite a line up of new instant film cameras, as well as modded older ones. I have one of their new TLR style instant cameras - it works great.

lol, well by rotation I mean roughly every week I switch cameras - that way they all get used. Throughout my career history I have learned not to let mechanical things sit. Unfortunately since my probl..I mean addic….errrr obsess….dammit….my camera rescue (yeah, that is it!) keeps growing in...

I ended up meeting an awesome local retired photographer a while ago to buy some 4x5 negative holders. We got along well, and a little while later he sent me a list of a few things he had for sale, and because I have zero self control for cool cameras to add to my rotation I bought a few things...

With the increase in popularity of those model cameras due to the aftermarket coming up with solutions to modernize/repair them - I can imagine the demand is higher than Polaroid anticipated and will be growing. I know there is a guy in Australia who repairs/modernizes them and he had to hire...

These look like a 90s grunge/alternative cd cover/booklet in all the best ways

I bought a like new Olympus OM-D E-M10 MKIII off the ol' Ebay and took it out today to see how it worked with a few lenses (Lumix 14mmF2.5 , Olympus 40-150F4 Pro, and the Pana-Leica 100-400.) I was helping a coworker narrow down what she wanted in a camera, and she was leaning towards the OM-D...

Great shot! Scale and color. I have done some silly things in life, 190mph on the salt, 200+ on water, jumped out of airplanes a few times, etc - but mountain climbing was never on my list of interest. My hats off to those who do it - but I think I have seen too many movies where it has all...

I have had a great experience with the Cinestill CS41 kits. I like that I can order it in 500ml - so then I can just mix and dump it all in my smaller Jobo or Stearman SP455 tanks with a 485ml capacity without having to measure it out. I use the 1000ml kits for my bigger tanks. I buy the...

Bill, I did upon your recommendation - however I have yet to try it!

Great set. I like the bright colored changing foliage amongst the “permanent” darkness of the dead.

I tend to use my film cameras like my cell phone camera (I use the film cameras more, actually.) Thanks for the comment :)

Thanks Beth! It was nice to get out of the house and take a day trip.
