In pairs and half a pear


Här är två kameror - mina favoriter.
Below are two cameras - nearly identical. Seemingly so.



Canonet 28 till vänster väger kanske 200 gram mindre än sitt syskon Canonet 19. Den mesta vikten består av större och fler linser i objektivet. Metallen i 19 är också tjockare och den har färre plastdetaljer.

The left one - the Canonet 28 - weighs perhaps 200 g less than the one to the right - the Canonet 19. It's all in the lens - lots of glass - and the casing. There is thicker metal in the 19 and more plastic parts on the 28.


Ricoh-kamerorna här ovan representerar också ett kvalitetsskutt. 500 ST är lätt, ganska plastig i känslan, och har halvautomatisk exponering. 500 G är tyngre, har finare lins och detaljer samt är helt manuell om man vill.

The Ricohs above are also different animals, despite a visual likeness. Weight, lens quality and quality as opposed to budget detailing are evident when you take a closer look.

Nästa bild är tagen genom sökaren på en Chinonflex TTL sedan jag skruvat på en makrolins bakom kamerans 55 mm standardlins. Ganska så fantastiskt kort skärpedjup!
The next image is taken through a SLR with a macro lens added to the original 55 mm lens. Pretty amazing depth of field!


Det här såg vi vid lekplatsen där vi hängde en stund när vi var i Götet i helgen. Gött päron antagligen.
This is what my daughter and I saw close to the playground that we frequented during our stay in Gothenburg last weekend. Probably a juicy pear.

Celebrating 20 + Articles Elsewhere

  I have had a fun eight years burrowing deep into the world of film photography. Within a few weeks my 22nd contribution to 35mmc.com will be published. The website, which is run by a small group of people, publishes contributions from the global community of mostly film photographers. I have contributed sporadically with reviews and other articles on  photography related issues since May 2017. Almost as long as I have written about photography on this blog.   Disposable Cameras Canon QL17 Rangefinder Canon Demi half-frame Canon Lens Modding Olympus LE Camera Olympus Pen-F Yashica 50 mm Lens     Halina Lens Modding  4 Minolta Cameras Steinheil 50 mm Lens Instamatic Voigtländer Lens Modding Meikai Camera Ricoh Auto 35 Camera     Chaika Camera Modding Redscale Film   Hanimex 110 Camera  Canon 1980s Compacts Canon Prima Mini Camera Reviving Instamatic Cameras Focus-Free Digital Lens During this time I have also contributed a few art...
