"ode to the hummingbird "

 

a hundred beats a minute they say

that how with grace we fly this way

we flit and hover to the flowers and feed

the nectar there is all we need

i look at you as if to say

any treats for me as i pass this way

you humans hang out those nectar pots

this migrating means we must drink a lot

the energy we use is vast for our size

and the miles we travel it is no surprise

This is a close-up photo of the reflection in a flex card that I placed beside an image on the front page of the newspaper of a person pointing.

I know which of these two is prettier, but that's a personal opinion and I freely admit I am not exactly unbiased.

 

The Contarex Special considerably exceeds the already not exactly petite Leicaflex in bulk. Keep in mind that the Special is considerably slimmer than the original Contarex "Bullauge", which has been incorrectly and non-sensically translated into English as "Bull's Eye". Bullauge means "porthole" - a ship's circular window with a solid metal frame (or "scuttle", for those who have a RN background), for obvious reasons.

 

Originally I didn't want a Contasaurus Rex. I certainly don't want the original one. I have a friend who has one. It doesn't work. He showed me how incredibly difficult it is just to get the top cover off. It's axiomatic that some collateral damage is incurred before you get to whatever you want to fix. No way I'll ever get one of those. But after shooting a few films with the Zeiss Ultron on an Icarex, and being delighted with the results, I can be forgiven for wanting to try a Planar on a ZI.

 

The Special is much simpler in layout. It's almost a normal camera. Almost, but not quite. It still is, tangibly and intimidatingly, a Contarex. But at least it doesn't have this horrendously complex, fragile and also spectacularly ugly (OK, that is just my opinion) selenium meter which would not be likely to work any more today.

 

The Contarex Special comes with a prism viewfinder that can easily be exchanged against a viewfinder and a plain ground glass focusing screen that can be exchanged against a Fresnel screen with a split image circle.

 

I only have the prism viewfinder and the plain focusing screen, but I find that focusing is rather easy with the Planar lens. The scene just appears to jump in and out of focus. However, a Contarex user should not expect (and won't get) a huge, bright viewfinder screen like in a Leicaflex.

Apparently the other railfans were quick to think of chasing this thing to Downtown Plant City, Kevin and I ended up still at Winston Wye like lost souls. Despite Downtown Plant City being better favored, this more laid back hop on I-4 to Buchman Hwy and a jog north to the first available spot proved to be a viable alternative. Of course, the minutes lost finding parking and running to the railfan tower on account of the car show were considered. Just clear of the 10mph turnout limit, K85616 is able to gain some speed and roll by Sam Allen Rd with UP SD70Ms #4655, #5181 and CSX ES44AH #738.

Blest with a hairy chest... I’ve lost 20 pounds over the last year! Trying to make sure it’s all blubber not muscle - so intermittent fasting and pumping iron. Still got those damn little love handles but no more beer belly.

I think the appeal of this camera is obvious. How many cameras do you see that have cream-colored enamel and a burgundy covering? As far as I know, the styling of this camera is unique. The burgundy covering is interesting in that it has two textures at once; it's a linen-like fabric with a pebbled texture. The pebbling is just about invisible in this photo, but can be seen in Travis Gray's photo, or in Rick Soloway's photo.

Although it says "Photo Laboratories" on it, McKeown's Price Guide puts this camera under the heading of Monroe Sales Company, so I'm guessing they were the distributors. It doesn't say Monroe anywhere on the camera itself.

The Color-Flex takes 127 film and was made c1947.
