Eye Piece Modding

Since I wear glasses I wasn't happy with the small and all-metal viewfinder on my Fed 2 (to the left).


I'd attempted to apply an enhancing glass from a broken Voigtländer Vito B, but the added enhancing was too strong and made the viewfinder blurry.


So, this is the solution: Fasten a Canon rubber eye cup with Sugru - which is a kind of rubber glue which adheses to anything when dry after 24 hours. Good for the glasses, (sort of) easy to peel of if necessary.


My kind of retro!

Digi Bewe Oh

I really like the look of the b&w pictures that I get out of the Samsung NV7 digital camera. I only use it for black & white photography since the colour pictures are very bleak. At least when compared to the ones that I get with my Fujifilm cameras. And the grains really evoke the impression of black & white film. A friend of mine documents solitary bees making homes behind this plexi glass screen. No digital tweaking was made apart from the flying bee picture. These pictures are straight out of the camera.
