"And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about." — Haruki Murakami

La Voigtländer Vitessa deu ser una de les cà meres de 35mm més inusuals de la seva època, i compta amb més d'una caracteristica força inusual.
Es tracta d'una cà mera telemetrica de 35mm plegable i amb fotometre, fabricada el 1956. Fins aquà res d'especial. El fotometre es de seleni d'un tipus una mica inusual però res més. Però la manera com es plega aixà com avança la pel·licula son especials. L'objectiu es desplega i replega rera unes "portes de graner" dobles, força inusuals. Amb tot, hi ha alguna altra cà mera amb "portes de graner", com la Chinon Bellami.
El que sà sembla realment unic és l'avençador de pel·licula/carregador del obturador. Es tracta d'un gran "embol" a la part superior que funciona apretant-lo fins a baix de tot després de cà da fotografia. També es plega manualment un cop s'ha tancat l'objectiu rera les "barn doors".
Per tot plegat la Vitessa sembla una curiositat amb més interès com a col·leccionisme que per a fer-la servir com a cà mera, però he vist que és obviament prou valida (és una Voigtlander, després de tot). Obviament, com indica el seu nom, es força rà pida de fer anar, amb aquest llarg "carregador".

The Voigtländer Vitessa must be one of the most unusual 35mm cameras of its time, and it has more than one rather unusual feature.
To see it in folded position: flic.kr/p/2oQtyLJ
It is a 35mm folding rangefinder camera with photometer made in 1956. So far nothing special. The light meter is of selenium and of a somewhat unusual type but nothing else. But the way the camera unfolds and advances film are special. The lens unfolds and folds behind some rather unusual double "barn doors". There are only a few of other cameras with "barn doors", such as the Chinon Bellami.
What does seem really unique is the film advancer/shutter loader. It's a big "rod" at the top that works by squeezing it all the way down after each shot. It also can be folded manually once the objective has been closed behind the "barn doors".
All in all the Vitessa seems like a curiosity with more interest as a collectible than for use as a camera, but I've seen that it's obviously valid enough (it's a Voigtlander, after all). Obviously, as the name suggests, it is quite quick to operate, with this long "loader" rod.
I finally made a final print of this negative, taken in Orkney in 2009, as I had only made a small print when first experimenting with lith printing. Fomatone Classic (before the emulsion changed) on Easylith. Selenium toned to cool down the shadows as they had a greeninsh hue.
Pinhole camera.

The black churches can make for great photographs, but I've seen a number of them and I was fascinated with the cemetery surrounding this one.
