My camera gear during my London visit. Inside the Skin 50 pouch I carried the Zenitar 16mm and the Canon 50mm f1.4 as well as the Pixel Pocket Rocket card holder, extra battery and other assorted items. I used it strapped to my belt on the right side and it's very comfortable and convenient. It's my most common gear loadout.
Mounted on the 5D mk2 is a 24-105 f4 IS, my primary lens.
The Caesars camera is surely among the lowest-quality cameras ever made, but the color scheme is kinda cool. It is this combination of characteristics that makes me think this camera was the inspiration for the word "craptastic".
The seller of this camera claimed it was given to high rollers. I don't know about you, but if I was dropping hundreds of thousands of dollars at Caesars and this was how they showed their appreciation, I'd be pissed! :o)
This is the very first camera I bought specifically for my collection.
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.
Wood, cardboard, screws,...
the sliding rail is a piece of bamboo parquet. The focusing system needs some developments...

Image used to test the rollers on a Polaroid camera. They were just cleaned and tested perfect.
Kind of liked the shot and lighting so I finished it off with the old chop stick manipulation.

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. :)
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!!

After the exposure, the same numeral is advanced to the second window for the second exposure. You must do some exercise for not winding past the mark as the film is traveling a very short lateral distance.

While Joseph Ong (at the right) was eating something (using a lens pen as chopsticks), I was having fun spray painting his Canon EF 70-200 2.8L lens. Just curious what a black telephoto lens (Nikon look) would look like in a Canon body.

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:
Four of my favourite 35mm film cameras
Voigtlander R3M / 40mm Nokton
Nikon fm3a / 50mm AIS F1.2
Yashica Electro 35
Olympus OM4ti 24-48 Zuiko F4
Tasty hmm!
Shot with Nikon D800 and 45mm PC-E
My wife gave me a little Pentax 110 for Christmas in 1982. I took lots of photos with it until I bought a Canon EOS 600 in 1991. As well as the standard 24mm lens, I have the 18mm and 50mm lenses and the little electronic flash. I don't think one can get the film any more. (Look at the photo and think about that last sentence :)*
So far no one's come up with anything that links the photo to the last statement - look at the top right-hand corner, which camera did I use?
I love this shot of my mom. The beach, the camera, her squint as she decides what she wants to shoot, her hair, everything.
Here is an outtake from the other night...
Strobist info: Nikon SB-600 into black umbrella @ 1/32 power
Equipment used: Nikon D7000 + MB-D11 Really Right Stuff (RRF) right angle bracket, DR-6 right angle finder, CZ 50mm Makro Planar, Gitzo 2220 tripod with Acratech GV2 gimbal / ball head.
Exposure: Manual, 1/250 sec and f/5.6.
Lighting: A single Elinchrome FX 200Ri with one barn door at the bottom of the reflector to prevent light spilling on the glass plate under the camera. Strobe was triggered by a Skyport radio trigger. I fixed a small ball head with a paper clamp to hold the Styrofoam reflector to left of FA. The ball head was fixed to a Manfrotto Articulating Arm 196-2 which was mounted on a Super Clamp. The ball head made positioning of the reflector a breeze. The catch lights in the lens were made with a simple torch which was handheld.
Note: This is not a very good perspective but I was constrained due to the size of the glass plate and was forced to choose a high angle. Also could not just get rid of dust on the plate. Sorry about it!
This Nikon FA camera body (in EX+ condition) was presented to me by my elder sister. It belonged to my late brother in law Neel, a gem of a person. While going through the KEH site one day I found a MD-15 drive in EX condition for $25. I just couldn’t pass it up. The 50mm f/1.2 lens was bought in Hyderabad and is in Ex+ condition too. The whole set up is a fully functional and is great to look at. It is the new beauty queen of my collection!
The Nikon FA is one of the historically important cameras as it was the first camera in the world to have the so called “evaluative metering” (aka multi-segment metering). Nikon called it “Matrix Metering” and that term now has become a standard term in photographic jargon. This compact camera supports M, A, S, P modes and shows all important information in the viewfinder. The shutter speeds are from 30 sec to 1/4000 sec and X-Sync is 1/250 sec. It also has a 1/250 mechanical back up speed that works even without batteries. The set up makes a nice Click, Zzzzzt sound when the shutter is released. It is very ergonomic to hold too due to the shape of MD-15. The only hitch is that it requires a 12V supply like a car (meaning 8 AA cells) and hence is heavy.
in1967 Camera Corporation of America made this instant camera. beside kodak and polaroid, there is another instant film system, only 1 model was made - chrislin insta camera 100.
My "New" Old camera, a 60's Japanese made Yashica Mat-124 Medium Format. I can't wait to see my first pictures from this camera.
Pinhole cameras made from tin cans, match boxes, mint tins and a cracker box. They use 35mm film or light-sensitive photo paper as negatives.
The one in the back left was purchased on ebay, and I haven't used it. Some day I will, but it doesn't appeal to me as much as the handmade cameras.

Funny, I see a compositional flaw in this photo, now that the set-up is put away. It is way too heavy on the right. Some day I'll have to correct that.
This is a product shot of my Nikon D2H camera with the 50mm f/1.8 lens. This camera is for sale if you are interested.
Strobist info: SB-600 in softbox, camera left, SB-600 in shoot-through umbrella, camera right, using CLS in Manual settings. triggered using pop-up flash in -- mode.
