Botched Batch

I attempted two intellectual routes the other day. They both ended in pratfalls.

The first was to try to fix a Minolta Repo which had a stuck shutter.


I ended up feeling not adequate enough to finish the project.


The other project sort of involved the first. I'd gotten hold of a Nikon camera body used for some sort of lab purpose.


The camera has no shutter. So I figured, If i can figure out how to remove the Repo lens which has a shutter inside, I can sort of make this camera work.


But I am not skilled enough to figure these things out. Maybe someone else will. The Nikon is for sale in my Etsy shop.

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...
