Pro Finder Modding

Ever since I got my Fujifilm X-Pro 1 in the winter, I've loved using it. Suddenly I realized, after having to discard my Canon FX for suddenly jamming mid-stride, and it leaving the rubber eye piece unused, that was what the X-Pro needed to feel complete. But no way it would fit an entirely different (non-rectangle) mount.
I took the rubber eye piece off the Canon viewfinder mount and eventually, in my boxes, found an old TLR filter lens that as well as fit the thread mount for the X-Pro 1 viewfinder, kept the rubber eye piece in place. After removing the filter glass that was it. Eye piece of cake! The metal ring is not even close to my eye when looking in it.

It is slightly wobbly, but that also makes it easy to turn when tilting the camera for portrait format.

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.
