The hobby travels. It came to photograph it while seeing boys of the smile that had met on the trip.
The athletic meet, the festival, the sumo wrestling, [mueitai], and boys talk about the sweat throwing nakedly.
I think that the serious appearance that boys enthuse is always beautiful.
Japan and Thailand were chased while finding the viewfinder the engaging smile and the appearances of hot boys were chased to the groin.
There is a profile, and look at the homepage, please.
趣味は旅行。旅先で出会った笑顔の少年たちを見るうちに、カメラに収めるようになった。
運動会・祭り・相撲・ムエタイ、少年たちは汗をながし裸で語り合う。
少年たちの熱中するその真剣な姿はいつも美しいと思う。
素敵な笑顔をファインダー越しに見つけながら、日本とタイを股にかけ、熱き少年たちの姿を追った。

This the Helios 35-85-135 multi-finder I got off of Ebay. The widest part of the viewfinder is approximately 28mm so it works well for the Canon S90 (which is 28mm at the wide end)
This is the early Retinette based on the Retina. Very similar the Retina 1B with it's uncoupled light meter and frame counter.

Taken on Alie's dinner table. Shot through the view finder of an old Brownie Starflex. Love this old camera for its beautiful, big viewfinder.
BR Standard 4 Tank No. 80136 leaves Grosmont for Pickering, NYMR. Interestingly the camera used is around ten years older than the locomotive and both are still going strong.
Taken with a Rolleiflex Automat twin lens reflex medium format camera, Model K4 B2 (1945/49), Zeiss Tessar lens, yellow filter. Ilford XP2 super 400 B&W film
With your eye in-close to the Helios viewfinder, it's more accurate than I thought it would be. It's not 100%, but darn close. From what I hear, it's not as good as the Voigtlander metal 28mm brightline, but then again it's less than 1/3 the cost.
Flexaret from above. 3 1/2 inch live view true color viewfinder with lines for 120/135 film and with magnifying glass. With 120 film, flexaret is a more than 50mpx camera.
A split image rangefinder is the simplest of all RF designs. It only has two mirrors, one fixed, one moving. Lining up the split image provided puts you in focus ( well, in theory, anyway ).
Its also the most luminous design. Lacking all the beam splitters, back lit reticles and filters of more elaborate systems it really is very useful in low light situations.
As my camera project has interchangeable lenses, my KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) philosophy
will have it as an uncoupled RF.
Thus, it will be good for any lens of any make that I mount on the cam.
Viewfinder for shooting video. Made from a grape juice bottle (the juice was delicious), silicone muffin cup, lens from cheapo kids binoculars, and a few hair elastics. Works great! Better than paying $300+ for a professional one.

After many attempts at some sort of tripod-mounted bracket to attach a hotshoe to, I wasn't happy with the added bulk and decided to keep it simple. I ended up using some heavy duty double-sided tape to attach a cheap hotshoe ("coldshoe" actually, from a cheap, old, film P&S that I bought for $2.00).
I mounted it over the on/off button which is still accessible when the viewfinder is not attached. When it is attached, I use a work-around: To turn the S90 on, I hold the play button for 2 sec (image review) then tap on the shutter to extend the lens. To turn the camera off, I set up the "lens retract" to "0 sec" in the menu. Now when I press the play button (image review) once, the lens immediately retracts. Push play again and the LCD turns off too.
-Also, yes, the flash totally clears the hotshoe/viewfinder when it extends.
The rangefinder is coupled and integrated into the viewfinder, quite advanced for a plastic instant camera. All still working and appears to be accurate.

Kiev 4 with a set of Jupiter lenses and universal turret viewfinder
Jupiter-8M 2/53 by Arsenal
Jupiter-9 2/85 by LZOS
Jupiter-11 4/135 by KOMZ
Jupiter-12 2.8/35 by LZOS
This is nearly the complete set of available lenses for the Kiev. The only other lens listed in the instruction manual is a faster 50 mm lens, the 1.5/50 Jupiter-3, the already existing wide-angle lenses Russar MP-2 5.6/20 and Orion-15 6/28 are not mentioned. However, the universal viewfinder by KMZ is prepared for 28 mm.
Until now I have done some service only to the 2/85, new grease for the focus ring and the front lens was a kind of hazy from the inside. Very unusal: the 2/85 hasn't a common helicoid, but only two slots in which tiny pads are sliding. For more stability and a smooth focussing two rings of velvet are inside the focus ring.
After reassembling the lens, I have to say, the built quality is really poor. The threads in the screwholes are just bad, I found a lot of swarf from threading inside the lens, cuttings are not accurate. If you turn the focus ring, the lens stops exactly at optical infinity, but the index already stops at position 100 m on the focus ring. There is a mark on the lens barrel for the exact infinity position of the ring, and the infinity position really hits that mark, but that mark is just 2 mm off target. You may demur that I could shift the focus ring for those 2 mm, but this is not that easy. There are holes in the lens barrel for the screws of the focus ring, and if the screws are to near to that holes, they automatically slide into that holes. A shifting of e.g. 4 mm would be no problem.
Closeup of the CRT itself. I'd like to drive this from a normal composite video source (50Hz/625 line in my case) to make a tiny computer display. Clearly, the CRT is magnetically deflected (note the blue and yellow wires to the deflection coils).

Part of my job is to coordinate visits by media professionals interested in capturing the work, staff, and collections of my agency. Here a local university student interviews one of my coworkers in the agency's conservation lab, which doubles as her office.
Overall view of the camcorder viewfinder with the lid off. The CRT is in the upper left-hand corner. The camcorder is a Canon E400E model.
It was sort of a difficult thing to focus through both cameras at the same time. Despite all the mess & the choppiness, it has a certain mood. I don't know, summer i guess. & film. mmm, nice.
Who here likes to shoot film anymore? Raise your hand! I have a few rolls that need to be developed before they have grandchildren, it's been forever since i completed those rolls!
