The Univex Mercury of 1938 was an excellent camera, but a serious weakness was discovered suddenly in the spring of 1940: it used a proprietary film cartridge, with the film sourced in Belgium. After scrambling to set up film manufacture in the United States after Germany overran the Low Countries, Universal decided to adopt standard film formats. The Mercury II came out in 1946, with the Mercury mechanical design adapted to use regular 35mm film.. the need to rewind the film resulted in a noticeably larger camera, and the new frame counter prevented continuation of the rapid-wind accessory from the prewar camera. Otherwise it's much the same animal.

I used my Yongnuo 622 flash controller and transceivers to make this image and made use of it being able to do high speed sync. I used one speed light to camera left on a light stand and one to camera right on a light stand at about 1/32 power. I also had a flash on optical slave mode underneath and aimed up at reduced power. I set up my camera on a tripod and triggered the shutter with a remote radio trigger from inside the house. I am getting close to being able to freeze the hummingbird, but I have a ways to go. Almost Frozen. ;-)

The Omniscope is a pinhole camera that produces anamorph images. An anamorph image is produced when the axis of the lens or pinhole is not perpendicular to the film plane. The axis of the Omniscope's pinhole is parallel to its film plane. This gives the camera a 360 degree cone shaped view. It produces very distorted panoramic images. The following image shows the lenscap removed from the camera. The lenscap is also the shutter.
Went to Kawagoe, a beautiful part of Saitama that houses many remnants of old Edo Japan. While wandering about found this fellow weilding what research found to be a Topcon Horseman Press. Right in front of the historical Toki no Kane clock tower.
Last weekend I lost my Canon A96 Powershot at the Rugby (The 'Springbok Nude Bums' were watching the Trinations Test between South Africa and New Zealand at Loftus.) Unfortunately Frank and I were having such a great time that in my drunken exuberation I misplaced my camera at the end of the evening while 'scruming' with some guys after the game! While I mourned the loss of my trusty camera, I was devastated about the loss of the pics I'd taken that day. The only positive was that it was an excuse for me to buy a SLR digital...and I now have a huge dent in my wallet!

I rarely get to talk much about cameras with anyone, it was a fun afternoon!
This Camera was in the lost &found in the Orderly Room when I was in the service. No one ever claimed it so when I went on one of my first trips, I took it with me. I never did learn what the settings meant so often took a few shots. Most everything came out okay and think I wound up with a good selection of slides. Even had a leather carrying case. When I left for home, decided to bring it with me as no had yet claimed it.
I love wearing skirts in the summer and I've been wanting to make one with some fabric that's more personal which reflects my interests and hobbies. I scoured the internet and found this camera print fabric, it's from the Moda 2wenty thr3e range from www.graceandjacob.co.uk I didn't use a pattern as such, I just copied one of my favourite skirts. It's my first ever clothing sewing project and I'm really pleased with the outcome. I'll be making more in the future!
Found this beauty at the Pasadena Camera show and sale. Balda vintage folding camera with leather bellows.
Summer is still camera shy and not so steady on the high heels, but Apple is very eager to help her and share how to be a perfect little model :-)
This little girl was making a little fuss at first, as soon as I turned my camera to her she was just a little princess. I said "little" a lot just now.
A lovely camera, more than 50 years old, this is a Fed 2 (b) rangefinder, made in the USSR. The lens (Industar i-61) is at least 10 years younger than the camera body, but I am waiting for a contemporary (collapsible) lens to arrive. Shutter speeds are 1/500 - 1/25 plus 'B' and the 1/50 and 1/25 speeds are a bit dodgy, but this might just be down to lack of use. At the time this camera was new it had a longer and therefore more accurate rangefinder base than the Leica as well as an integrated viewfinder and rangefinder, which the Leica still did not have. Apart from the Fed 1, which was a 'straight' copy of the Leica II, this is definitely the most beautiful of all the Fed cameras.
For those who are anxious about whether it will be used, I have 3 rolls of B&W film on order from 7 Day Shop!

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!

I've always found it a little odd the way that people with cameras react to having their picture taken. whether it's a news crew, or a store security camera, or just another photog, usually it's a defensive reaction. I love it when another photographer takes my picture when I've got my camera. seems like a sign of respect.
Ringrazio Chiara per avermi fornito mezzo, location e luci per realizzare questa foto... grazieeee!

My new camera is the thing which I obtained by transfer from Yoshikatsu, but unfortunately cannot charge a film. I repair this sometime soon and want to use it.
On November 14, 2012 at home.

ぼくのこの新しいカメラはYoshikatsuさんから譲り受けた物ですが、残念ながらフィルムを装填することができません。ぼくはいずれこれを修理して使いたいと思います。

As a photographer, I spent many hours looking through viewfinders. My two primary analog cameras, a hasselblad and Rolleiflex. This is a digital copy of the original.
If your gonna toss it...
Minor crop and sharpen, otherwise SOOC. 3 light sources: white LED array, 7 color neon sign, and a color-phasing LED strip.

How cool is this little guy?
Plastic, 127 film
Front is telescoping
Design is cool!
But the box is the kicker!
Sweet little toy =)
Moskva-2 camera, built at the KMZ factory in Russia in 1955. It is a 6x9 medium format camera with a coupled rangefinder and a 110/4.5 Tessar-formula lens.
It is fully funcional and being put to good use.
At one time this was considered to be one of the finest US made 35mm cameras. It was developed to compete with Leica.

A popular Soviet 35 mm rangefinder camera, inspired by classic Leicas. Over two million units have been produced in 18 years in different variants. This is the second version with a film advance lever, known as PE0635 or FED-3b, of which 400.000 units have been produced. This one is still functionable and usable, I became it from a old photographer for help with his beginnings with digital photography. It is a nice old piece of hardware, solidly built - not all things made in the USSR have been crap.
Had to be done.
Behold my new-to-me Leica IIIc with collapsible Summitar 50mm f/2. Shutter and winder apparently in working order. Rangefinder needs work, shutter needs new curtains.
I'm taking it to Germany and having it serviced. This is no display piece!
As for the chameleon, he's not feeling too well, found him on the ground yesterday morning.
4x5 Stereo/4x10 Panoramic Pinhole Camera
The entire thing is made out of black foam core and black gaffers tape. The pinholes were bought (it's quite hard to make your own matching pinholes for stereo). There is a piece of wood on the bottom with a bit of steel to allow it to be mounted on a tripod. I use the outer two holes and a divider down the middle to create a stereo image or I use the center hole without the center divider to create a panoramic image. It's built to use 2 4x5 film holders or 1 4x10 film holder. The shutter is a flap of foam core (that's currently up) and I use tape to cover the holes I'm not using.
