The Eastman Kodak Company developed and manufactured this camera for use by the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). It was made in the shape of a matchbox of that era. It could be disguised by adding a matchbox label appropriate for the country in which it was to be used.

I love the fall colors hit by the sun. Apparently Cooper did too. Taken by his collar camera.

This is the "Photo Master" camera. It is a simple point-and-shoot roll film camera which was made by the "Monarch Manufacturing Company" of Chicago Illinois USA around 1940. This is one of the many models of inexpensive pocket-sized cameras produced by the Monarch Company during the 1930s, 40s and early 1950s.
The chassis itself is made entirely out of thick black molded bakelite, and is a common chassis design for low-priced pocket cameras produced during that era. It closely resembles the "Dasco", "Majestic", "Waldorf" and "Churchill", also produced by Monarch. Like the "Churchill" and the "Dasco" this camera was marketed as an inexpensive compact "candid minicam" camera. The only difference between the various models is the name printed on the front circular faceplate, because of this they are often referred to by collectors as "doughnut cameras". Monarch basically re-released the exact same camera under various names, without having to make design changes. This lowered production costs, which intern allowed Monarch to sell their cameras at a lower price. Monarch would even release cameras such as the "Dick Tracy" and "Brenda Starr Club Reporter" under the brand name of the "Seymour Products Company".
The camera features a built-in optical viewfinder with a metal face plate located on the front. The shutter mechanism is a simple fixed speed rotary/disc type shutter, and features two different exposure settings; "INST" (instant) and "TIME". The camera would have originally used "Vest Pocket Film" or "A8" (127 film) and would have made sixteen exposures (4 by 6.5 cm frames) on a standard roll of 127 film. The rear cover is the camera is clips onto the main chassis via two metal tabs and features two green exposure number viewing windows. The lens on the camera is a simple meniscus lens.

Just got back into that disc of portraits with my and my then new baby. No longer blond, but the BW bender suggested I needed to play. And she does make me smile like that a lot... Taken by the divine Jake Shivery of Blue Moon Camera, Portland, OR.
I saw a few of these around flickr, so I thought I would give it a toss.. I was to chicken to do it with my camera so I "borrowed" my dads for this one. This was captured on the first toss.

This is my Mamiya 35 mm camera which I purchased brand new in 1984 and have been using it ever since.
I believe that this is the last 35mm model camera that Mamiya made. Is this correct and why did they get out of the 35 mm format?
This small, 1.5" Diecut Chromolithograph Sticker would have graced a Victorian era scrapbook. It shows a studio set with a view camera on a tripod, a plate holder, and head rest. I bought it with five others that show 19th century technology. Two of them show telephones, two show carbon arc lighting, and one is of a telegraph apparatus. I will add scans of all of them but do not have a set that would be appropriate. Maybe I should add a diecut group.
Originally designed for hunters (to remove more sport from the “sport”), conservation groups are also using it to track wildlife in the wild. I am borrowing a couple of them from the Wildlife Conservation Network before they ship out to Africa.
It combines motion and heat sensors to detect an animal approach on the path, and then takes a series of photos. At night, it records in infrared, and the array of LEDs up top provides an IR flash that they don’t see.
The HAL red eye is normally off; this is just a test mode to see what it takes to trigger the sensors.
Hoping to catch the local coyote, deer, bunnies, bobcat, and if really lucky, mountain lion.
A poppy-field, a man, a camera... discovered some pink poppies amongst the red.
Same poppy-field, a woman and a camera... the result...

Why not view the set as a slide-show?
Also I often upload more than one image at the same time, I see a tendency to only view the last uploaded...
This is the actual camera that Sir Edmund Hillary used at the summit of Mt Everest on 29 May 1953, the first camera ever to take a photo from the top of the world. Fancy using a Kodak for such an occassion, what was he thinking?! No wonder Tenzing refused to take Hillary's photo...

Week 32
Introducing my F100, 35mm film camera! Picked it up second hand with a vertical grip. I'm slowly adjusting to film and the "pro" layout. Also trying to get use to not instantly seeing the results. Looking forward to my journey with film!
First seen in the picture in the comments!

Diving as a camera operator at NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory. Summer of 2003. This particular photo was taken during a safety drill, where we simulated an emergency leak in the asttronaut's suit. In such a situation, the camera diver's job is to keep the camera focused on the astronaut's face so that the topside operators can tell how the astronaut is feeling and if he/she is experiencing any discomfort. Can be kinda tough when the safety divers are rushing the astronaut to the surface.

I never took a picture of this one like I did my other cameras. I got this for Christmas from my boyfriend. Now I want a Chaika 2! I like that this one has a meter but it doesn't have a B setting. It is still very cute and since it's small I like to take it to the store and bug my boyfriend by taking pictures of him. I enjoy buying wrapping paper and I found this paper underneath my bed the other day so I decided I would use it for pictures. I used my strobe and umbrella with this. I can't wait to get another one!
Some new American made Jabo marbles testing out the capabilities of my new Kodak Z990 camera. I have noticed that the color balance on this one leans a hair to red, as opposed to the Z981 that tends to lean towards yellow.
Strobist: Two speedlites on lightstands, one in her face (no gel), one from behind where the pink spot is (pink gel). I cloned-out that lightstand. No light modifiers.
We did this fashion shooting with a compact camera (Canon G10), not just for the fun of it (although it was fun!), but also because of the faster shutter. I tried the cam up to 1/3200 via cable some months ago - worked fine. This time we used RF transmitters and I used a shutter speed of 1/500 s. Also fine. => Perfect ambient under-exposure for a really dramatic sky :-).
