Done for Arch's challenge #23: urban sniper.
"The UCS was designed for Frontline Security due to the request of a sniper rifle that could be used in urban combats. Its charging mechanism is an update of the XV factory: Every time the bolt goes back, the shell is moved with it and ejected from behind in the side of the weapon. Thanks to the modular parts, can be updated as a sniper or a assault rifle. Purchase today and regret never!"

This is a unique little family garden in a lovely location. The story goes it was created by Arthur Measures (1909 - 1999) over a period of sixty years. We were actually privileged to meet his daughter who was collecting donations the day we visited. I thought it was really special this was still in the family and she was enthusiastic to tell us all about her Father and his love for the garden.
37688 thrashes through Newton Abbot station with the 5Z41 09.00 Laira - Crewe HS stock move returning the unused Locomotive Services Ltd coaches. They had been sent to Laira following the short temporary withdrawal of most of the GWR IET sets at the beginning of May. I would have preferred a more scenic location with the superb sunshine but work dictated otherwise. Luckily I was working in Newton Abbot so grabbed this shot with my compact on my tea break.
Why cant these camera manufacturer's produce a Owners Manual that not only names the buttons, levers & dials but actually tells you what each of them does and why you would want to use them in the first place, some of us are NOT techies or Rocket Scientists.
This was the Agfa of salvation, the one that would keep the brand afloat as a camera maker. Presented in 1980, it was the stubborn Germanic answer to the Japanese tsunami that killed the German camera industry in the 60’s and 70’s. This was a moment of hope for AGFA, a return with a very interesting camera, where the attention to the design was surprising. The styling is very pleasant, a very small and original shape created by Schlagheck design of Munich. It faithfully follows the Bauhaus credo, from follows function, but the result here is an original and pretty camera. The master stroke is the sliding On/Off switch that covers the camera’s viewfinder. Slide it and the camera comes alive, the lens cover opens and the Solinar pops out, very neat. All this done electrically, something that would become the norm up to the present days. The lens was brand new, but it was another variation of the old Solinar, AGFA’s version of the Tessar. Here we have a rather surprising 39 mm /2.8 lens. I believe it to be a 40 mm lens, they chose the 39 mm to clearly send the message that this lens wasn’t the old Solitar 40/ 2.8 of the Optimas of old. The big splash was the electric motor responsible for popping out the lens and wind the film at a speedy 2fps. This looked like a cracking little camera destined for fame and success. Sadly, it was not to be.
It is easier to find a person born in the 19th century and breathing than to find an Agfa Compact in working condition. This lack of reliability eventually killed the camera and AGFA as camera maker in 1983. It seems underdeveloped, that scale focusing is out of pace with the rest of the camera, as is the viewfinder devoid of any sort of info, just a red lamp for flash turn on. While the manually wound previous Optima series had an automatic loading of the film, with this one you get a motor but you have to put the film tip in the reel’s slot. The flash is just like the Olympus XA, Canon MC or Minolta AF-C, a separate unit that connects to the left side of the camera. There is provision for a cable release, but oddly no self-timer. The electric motor emits a noise as If all the gears were about to break when the camera is switched on. Film winding is not exactly silent either, but not remotely comparable to the Canon ML
The camera’s Bauhaus design might be impressive, beautiful, functional, daring, but the Konica C35 AF already existed and had what people really needed, autofocus, integrated flash. No electric motor, a very dull design, but a coherent concept. Still, this little AGFA is very engaging, but I am not very sure that it works well, fingers crossed for the Tmax 100!

I just bought myself the fuji x20 and am happy at the image quality this little camera can produce!
This is just one of the macro features it has and plenty more that I will be testing soon, when I get the time... This camera I feel has brought ''fun'' back into photography for me! :)
Thank you for looking!

Some of the compacts that I love. I think these are some of the most fun you can have with a film camera.
The Eastern smooth boxfish overlaps in range with the yellow boxfish - and as juveniles it's not easy to tell them apart. A. inermis is more rounded in shape, orange in colour with lighter spots. The yellow boxfish is more tropical in range, cubic in shape, bright yellow with black spots, see here flic.kr/p/rqicuT
