Here's a show off photo of my latest toy. A Hasselblad 500C with a Carl Zeiss Planar f2.8 80mm lens.
The body is from 1959 the lens is from 1970. I have 2 backs, one from 1959 and one from 1969. I've put new light seals in both backs and everything runs pretty smooth. I paid less for it then the price of a bottom market Canon DSLR.
Picked up a sticky mirrored LX today from a really nice guy called Glenn. Classic photographer who never seemed to hang on to digital. Thanks mate, hope to catch up again!
Just recently a group of friends held a "going away" party for a dear friend & co-worker, Jess, who will be relocating soon. Jess is not originally from our area & we wanted to give her things to remind her of the "wonderful" winters we have here. This originally was going to be a card, but thought it would be a great piece of decor for her to have wherever she decides to go. I also wanted to incorporate the peacock since it is the mascot of our university. TFL!
Supply list & details blogged here.
Some Radio Shack memorabilia as well with today's uploads. I have some A&P memorabilia as well stashed away that I need to photograph and upload some day, some of which dates back to the late 50's. Anyway, this is a Radio Shack Realistic brand VCR that I recently acquired. Realistic was the brand name Radio Shack used for gadgets such as CB Radios, 8 track players, VCR and Betamax players, and other things of that nature over the years. The brand was first introduced in 1954, and gradually discontinued in the 90's. Doing some research, this VCR dates back to 1985. This would have been a very expensive piece of equipment back then, costing a few hundred dollars (now you can get these things for a few dollars at a thrift store). Unfortunately, this VCR ate both the tapes I tried putting in it, both times requiring me to open the top up and carefully untangle the tape without breaking it.

Werra 2, one of the cutest and most advanced designs ever to come out of the Eastern bloc (made by the Jena Zeiss company although only branded as Werra).

I picked up my 3rd 5D2 after flip flopping between full frame and 1.6 crop. I decided I needed both.
It went like this 40D to 5D2 ( thought all my lenses were too zoomed back), back to a 40D (then went OMG 5D2 quality is 10 times better), back to 5D2(was happy until the 7D came out),to the 7D. Then for the last year I said I need both and finally picked up the 5D2 on the B&H sale. I'll have my 7D for sports and macro and the 5D2 for full framey shots. I got some stuff lined up so it should be paid off in no time.
