The little fountain that feeds my aunt and uncle's pond. Taken looking through the viewfinder of an old Kodak Duaflex. More here.
Viewfinder of the R5 with fisheye lens through D3 and 24 f2.8. Can you count the total number of elements? Lenses, prisms, focusing screens, glass and mirror.

White paper on rear side of viewfinder that's catching enough light from stripbox to give some life in the viewfinder
Black cloth behind camera to avoid reflections - you can still see the camera though. Needed a longer lens than the 55mm although keeping off the camera may have also done the trick.

i also picked up this lol old guy. These Argoflex 75s were produced from 1949 until 1958! The viewfinder is stunningly sharp, large, and bright. While I've found tons of information on the web as to how to load the film, it seems rather tricky, and no doubt development of the film will be costly, so I'll wait awhile before I do that.
I'd love to find one of these, the Lady Carefree Argus Ha! What a marketing ploy!

First thing that went through my mind when I received the FED from the Ukraine was: 'I wonder what scenes that viewfinder had taken pictures of...' 30 years of Russians, perhaps even entire family histories... Really makes you respect this relic of a forgotten era.
Stills for a new short film- preview
All shot with 40D + either Sigma 30/1.4 or Canon 85/1.8 USM
The camera they were using actually mounted Nikkor lenses! Imagine my envy when I saw a whole box which contained a Nikkor 55/1.2, 85/1.4, 135/1.4, 18/2.8, and a couple of other fast *beasts*!
This are some of the shots from the first roll of film I took with my very old Kodak Retinette 35mm Viewfinder Camera.
Focussing is done by estimating the distance to subject, then rotating the lens, and exposure also has to be set manually with readings from a seperate light-meter.
I quickly got bored of checking the light-meter, so I reverted to the Sunny 16 rule and guessed.
Film was cheap Kodak colour (maybe Ultra, I can't remember!) I got from the car boot, and processing was 1 hour Boots (Fujifilm)
Thanks, Rob.
