took this a while ago but still catching up with my new flickr , pansys are just one of my dads fave flower , but this one I love how the sunlight shines through against the lush green grass and the yellow pansy
A preview of a new camera I received as a gift from my wife that will need some work - a 1930s Mendel PDQ instant camera. It used now extinct rolls of direct positive paper and has a built-in tank for developing. How am I going to get it working....
The lens is excellent !
Review article about X-T10 my husband wrote in Japanese.
I took the photos of the camera for it.
Best viewed large on black. Had my exam at the weekend which was quite stressful so went for a walk around Cardiff Bay. Welsh TV presenter Rhodri Owen was filming a piece, although I think they were waiting for the right lighting because there was a lot of pacing around!
Shutter dead, focus stuck, some leather on the front missing, evidence of a failed repair attempt. This guy's had a rough life. I bought it anyway. Call it a rescue mission. I'll probably replace the leather and call it good. The Samoca will rest on my shelves warm, dry and comfortable until my heirs eventually donate it to somewhere.
UPDATE: 12/9/14, more damage than I thought, camera disassembled for parts.
spec:
pinhole size: 0.2 mm dia.
focal length: 26 mm
f stop: 130
angle of view : 110 deg
film : 120 , 6"x6"
material : cardboard, rubber, glue, tape, etc.
I now have an internet webcam with live video stream trained 24x7 on my build area! Check it out at OCHREJELLY.CAMERA.
And if I'm building, you can even tweet me @OchreJellyCam. It'll go straight to my iPad.
As magical as all this is, there may be some IT kinks to iron out at first. So report in the comments whether you can or cannot see anything (both of which are equally useful to know). Be sure to include country, region and browser you are viewing from.
Also, my camera seems to be prejudice against Internet Explorer users... Right now it only feeds static images to IE (you have to hit Refresh to see changes). So IE users, lemme know if you would prefer ActiveX, Java or Quicktime to see a live feed.
This Kodak Retina (serial number 404802 K) of 1936/40 is my first camera.
I used it from 1962 to 1967.
Used previously by my father, I did apply some changes: attachments for belt, contact syncro- flash, slide for flash and to the bottom attack for close-up photography for a system designed by my father, a talented mechanical precision.
I still have this machine...... working perfectly!

Questa Kodak Retina (numero di serie 404802 K) del 1936-1940 è la mia prima macchina fotografica che ho usato dal 1962 al 1967. Era la macchina di mio padre alla quale io feci apportare alcune modifiche: attacchi per cintura, contatto sincro-lampo, slitta per il flash e sulla parte inferiore una slitta per collegare un sistema per fotografare a distanza ravvicinata progettato da mio padre, valente meccanico di precisione.
Conservo ancora questa macchina ..... perfettamente funzionante!

It's a toy made to look like a camera. When you hold the "lens" against a light source and look through the viewfinder, you will see small pre-made photos that are built into it.
thank's, schoschie
I was gifted this camera at the weekend, an 80's Praktica, I didn't realise until I got it home that there were another 2 lenses in the bag as well as the camera - generous to the last! Thanks Uncle Bill :-)

My self made camera bag! :D
Please forgive me for the quality of the picture, it's taken with my phone.
Materials:
-Foam
Some stores specialized in refitting furniture also sell just the foam. They have it in different thickness and can cut you the quantity you need. I bought a piece of 33inches (80cm) for 7£, but honestly, I didn't use half of it for a bag of that size. With 4/5£ worth of foam you should have enough.
If you don't know where to find such a place in your town, go to a fabric store and ask them, they should know (they'll be even more willing to help you if you buy them the fabric you need).
Replacing it with Bubble wrap just DOESN'T WORK (it's not protecting enough and it doesn't last), and it's not that much cheaper.
- Fabric
Something simple, cotton preferably. Avoid anything like fur, velvet and suede, they'll attract dust. Pick something light enough to allow you to find your gear easily.
- Cardboard
You want it thin but strong and light. I went to Spar and asked them if they didn't have some pieces of boxes they were about to bin.
Then you need thread, needles, ducktape, double faced tape, velcro, and if wanna go quicker, fabric glue.
Oh, and of course a bag lol. I picked mine for 9£ at the Eagle Market. It's probably not gonna last forever, but I can still take the insert out and put it in another bag.
First of all, take mesurement and draw how you wanna put your gear in.
With the cardboard and tape, I formed a box to fit inside the bag. It was quite tricky to put it in, I had to fold the bottom inside to be able to twist it, then once inside I taped the bottom back.

Then I cutted out pieces of foam to cover each side of the box and wrapped it in fabric.
I sewed the fabric around then reversed it and closed the last side with ducktape.

TIP: If you don't have a sewing machine, then don't bother with sewing the "walls" of the box, you won't be able to see the face stuck to the box anyway, so just do everything with ducktape, you'll save hours!
Stick them to the cardboard with the double faced tape.
Then I wrapped more foam with fabric to do the compartements dividers.

Adhesive velcro becomes very handy when you don't have a machine. Mine weren't so it too me ages to put them on. Multipurpose Power Pritt glue can work, but make sure you wait long enough before using them (1 to 2 hours).
Stuck the other bit of the velcro inside the main "box" and then put the dividers in place.
Then I only used more bits of foam, fabric and tape to fill the spaces.
One of the lenses is under another one which doesn't make it very handy, but I really don't use it often so in case I need it I'll have time to get it.
This bag will just work perfectly for me I think.
It's not waterproof I think but I'll make sure I buy a rain cover and carry it in the bag at all times.
There is some pockets in the front, very handy for accessories.
The whole thing is rather light as well, which is very good considering my back problems.
Hope my experience will help some. It can work in a lot of different shapes, bags. Just adapt it to your own gear (it can be changed and rearrange when you upgrade.... many expensive camera bags can't).
Flagship model of Fuji X series. My husband wrote the review in Japanese, I took the photos of the camera for the article, in March.

i just survived two years with an iphone and celebrated by rediscovering a "new" one of my first favorite camera; 'canon prima zoom 65' which i lost to the morning mist at a wedding years ago. i picked it up today and am so very excited. getting the film i enjoyed using with this camera as well (kodak gold) apart from this film being 200 asa instead of 400.
thanks to www.flickr.com/photos/vagn49/ for selling me that good aul canon point and shoot.
This very heavy and beautifully built camera made its debut in 1964. This is not to be confused with the later and inferior Singlex TLS. This fine example is in full working order, including the clip on meter. The actual manufacturer has been accredited to Nikon, Mamiya,Yashica, and Ricoh, to name ones I have heard of. The camera is claimed by Ivor Matanle to be a Nikkorex F in disghuise, and the 55mm f1.4 Rikenon lens to be a Nippon Kogaku 50mm f1.4 which did not meet Nikon's standards, Love it ! But it is not easy to find.

3D Carved, Fondant covered Camera Cake. I used an edible image on the back display of the camera. The cake is10" wide x 6" deep x 7" high, not counting the rice cereal lens.
Changing some things around in the house, I've moved 37 cameras and a few lenses into this dust- and cat-resistant cabinet in the family room. Cameras were chosen on the basis of technical interest, curb appeal and compactness, for the most part.
The top shelf is all American made; second shelf is all German; and the bottom shelf is a mixture from various countries including Germany, Japan, England, Italy, Czechoslovakia and Russia.
This gets re-rearranged from time to time.

This is some of my gear! :)
*Scroll over the photo for the name of each piece of equipment.*
I enjoy switching it up between polaroids, panoramas, medium format and digital, as I adore the outcome of both lo-fi and hi-fi photography!
I'd love to hear about your experiences with any of these cameras, so please feel free to comment and I'll be sure to reciprocate! Thanks for checking out my photo. :)
Margan and I took the plunge for full-sensor DSLR's -- Santa brought us Canon 5D Mark III's on his sleigh (well, actually Margan and Amazon had something to do with it, but the Santa story is sweet). Took them to California for our Christmas visit and have been processing and posting since.
I also decided (which I will likely regret) to do another 365 project this year. I did 2014 and it was a fun and learning experience. The only caveat I will make is that, if a day happens when I cannot make a photo, I will retrieve one from the archives that day. This was an easy day 1 of 365 (actually 366, since this is a Leap Year!).
Trying to catch up on photos but still consumed with Kaylee's potty training and other house keeping. Here's a quick shot of a vintage camera from our collection found at a garage sale up in Washington.
Happy Cliche Saturday!!
.... I didn't know if I was going to be able to continue this project. It's been quite the drama: should I keep with it? should I quit? *repeat* (thus the delayed post). In the end, I realized that the entire purpose for sharing this with the Flickr world was so that I'd be accountable to someone other than myself for finishing it. Frankly, I don't like shooting myself. It's hard and I'm a poor model. I like shooting PEOPLE. Playing with my iPhone camera so much lately has really brought that to light for me. Photographing PEOPLE is my passion!!! It's why I bought a camera in the first place, it's why I get excited. And, at the end of the day, this project will help me do that better - only if for the simple reason that I have to work sooo much harder to get the shots I want. So, after careful contemplation, I'm not going to quit this project. Despite my best efforts to blow it all to hell half way through, I'm carrying on. I'm a photographer and this is what I DO.
Like Father, like Son...
...Austin and I posing for a "selfie" picture (taken via a mirror) exactly 12 years ago (to this date).
Title derived from the fact that we both know/knew how to pose for the camera (him at the ripe age of 7 MONTHS old!!!).
What I love most about this pic is that both of us are looking at each other in the mirror for the pose...
...another HISTORY REDUX pic posted for posterity.
Tokyo, Japan.
We are in the process of photographing much of our collection for the book that will accompany an exhibition in the fall.
This bisque frog stands beside an egg with a hand held bellows camera. It is rather strange but charming. The dealer who sold it to us is sure it is German from early in the 20th century.
At work, I shoot mostly in the studio. Here is my gear for my personal work. I usually just carry one camera body and a couple of lenses and a flash at a time depending on what i plan to shoot. I also use different bags depending on what I want to put in it.
For my portable lighting gear:
I took my GameBoy Camera to the Midwest Gaming Classic this year. Here's one of the photos I captured, of a woman cosplaying as Chun-Li from Street Fighter.
Posting photos of photographic equipment on flickr is arguably slightly nerdy, but it's cold and nasty outside and I have this banged up old Agfa Billy Record lying around. It's no use for anything but smiling at, and possibly shooting with a macro lens.
