My website with more details about collecting camera :
Kodak Medalist II, free to compare, Leica 6x9 ! ! I was able to adapt to the 120, a very difficult and complicated process, better use nail clippers to trim spool, and shoot.
I've finally acquired the renowned Canon 50mm F1.4 lens! I used the Canon EFS 18-55mm standard lens for a year, and it was a great experience that now makes it easier for me to utilize a standard lens in any circumstance. Street, portrait, and architecture
I'll now use the typical one for photographs of landscapes and buildings. Here is one of my earliest photographs, and if you enjoy bokeh, you will adore the outcome.

So first off let me say no I did not just buy an a7, this is actually the stores display model. Also no I do not plan on getting on either, I mean they are very nice and I would like to own one but my RX1 does just fine at the moment, so maybe when the eventual a9 comes out I'll consider jumping on the band wagon. But yea the Sony a7, I'm sure many of you know about it since it has been talked about all over the internets since it was announced a little over a month ago. The first (affordable) mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (Leica was technically the first but thats way out of reach for most people). They are very capable cameras and frankly I'd love to get one to use my my Leica lenses on it, I quite like them, they work well in hand for me since you know I'm as Sony user so everything is very familiar to me when I hold one. Plus as a shallow depth of field fiend I love having a larger full frame sensor so I can get that depth of field just that much more shallow. Point is I like them but cannot justify buying one. Also not sure which one I'd buy, but I think I'd probably go with the a7r if I had to choose. But like I said I'd probably wait until the next generation, when an a9 comes out.
Fun fact about this shot was taken on a D800, again borrowed it from the store since I wanted to include the RX1 in this shot so I didn't really have another camera to shoot with so I borrowed one. Also since it was Black Friday I just quickly shot this since I work in the retail world, though luckily it wasn't that busy so I actually had time to shoot this. Though in order to make things go by faster this shot is actually a flash composite, 2 shot put together in one. It just made my life easier doing it that way. Besides that nothing to special for today.

Hello
How are you, my friends?
I want you to critique construction in this snapshot monophonic
Thanks
My prototypes for the 4 hood's i've designed so far.
The two for CV 21mm and CV 25mm are still going through testing at the moment, so aren't yet on sale.
I'm used to a strange allotment of worth in my life. My truck barely worth the gas I put in it always has crazy expensive bikes and kites and skiing gear in it. But my work desk is normally pretty standard. I've got a few shiny Apple products for work and play, but recently I added a new desk ornament, which again throws off the value perceptions.
This is the result of many many many a long and stressful night spent on my Senior Design project at the University of Colorado. Basically, it is a just crazy fancy camera. I was tasked with building it up from scratch, starting with the sensor. That baby is a $5000, 5 Megapixel sCMOS sensor. It costs so much because it is more sensitive than any sensor in our pretty DSLRs, and reads out about 10x cleaner images. Oh, also it happens to read out at 100 FRAMES/SECOND, at full 16 bit resolution (higher than our fancy cameras too. The thing spits out gigabytes/second of data! This was my first time designing any electronic systems, so was pretty stoked when it finally worked.
Now, I have a few of these boards and 3 or 4 sensors sitting in boxes in my garage. At one point they were rediculously expensive pieces of cutting edge technology, now they're just pretty pieces of silicon. Makes for a cool desk decoration though! Perfect mix of nerdiness and photography for me, always keeps me motivated when it catches my eye.
Here's our little engineering site/blog in case anyone is interested.

The Kiev camera - history
The Kiev 35mm interchangeable lens rangefinder film camera is one of the best known of Soviet era camera brands in the West and many are still used by photography enthusiasts around the world.
Seven years after the launch of the Leica 1 at the Leipzig Fair, Carl Zeiss announced the first Contax, a 35mm camera with a coupled rangefinder. 1932 also saw the launch of the Leica II featuring a rangefinder.
The Contax was larger, heavier and more expensive than the Leica, but great resolving power and high contrast of the 5cm Tessar, later 5cm Sonnar and majority of the different focal length objectives produced for the system in the 1930s and 40s found favour with many professionals. The camera was manufactured in Dresden with lenses produced at Jena.
At the end of WWII, the Soviet Red Army liberated the Dresden factory and trucked - under the war reparations scheme - the dies and machinery used to make the Zeiss camera to the Kiyev Zavod Arsenal in the Ukraine. By 1947, a modified Contax II camera was in production with a new name; Kiev-2. The same camera was also produced at Jena and called the Jena Contax II.
LENINGRAD 1956 1968 70000 produced. 35mm 24x 36 rangefinder. Motorised blind shutter giving three frames per second .
Often dismissed as being too large to be practical outside the studio, the Fuji GX680 III (far right) when compared to other camera that feature movements is not all that much larger. The all metal Toyo 45a, a favorite field camera is only 3 pounds lighter, by the time you add a lens and four or five film holders, then it's a wash. The Arca is much lighter, but the ungainly view camera shape make it difficult to carry without breaking down the camera into it's components, making set-up time more laborious than the pretty much instantly ready Fuji.

Well I got nothing for today so here was the easiest and quickest last minute photo idea I could think of today. I mean it was also a pretty quick shot too, I didn't spend nearly as much time as I normally do with things like this when I set it up. I just got everything roughly straight and called it a day cause I didn't have like an hour to make sure everything was nice and straight with this shot. Well actually I did but I like getting my shots up (on Facebook) around 10pm if I can. So yea this was a pretty quick shot. I just grabbed my RX1 and my rangefinders, got some film out of my old achieve and that was about it. I got to say that I really do tend to treat and use my film cameras more as "point and shoots" then anything, mainly because I like to use them for fun a lot more then anything, so I never really do any serious shoots or things like that with them these days. And because of this 365 I haven't had much of a chance to shoot much film cause you know part of the "rules" I set up for my 365 was that it has to be digital that way there is proof (even though that can be easily tampered) that my photos were shot on said days. Plus its a lot quicker, cheaper and more convenient for me to do this digitally anyway. Either way I plan on shoot film more regularly once I'm done this 365, just haven't had the time this year.
