Mighty Maier


A stroke of luck finds me in possession of the same model of camera that Vivian Maier used for many years. It is a humbling situation and one I didn't expect to occur. The camera will be serviced by a brand repairman in Stockholm and be up for sale in my shop by Autumn.

Pictured is the camera next to my cherished Fed 2.


The Leica II is smaller than the Fed and much lighter. They function in very similar fashion - well, that's since the Fed is a development of a copy of the other camera.

Another camera that will be up for sale in the Autumn is the Leica M5, after servicing, pictured below.


If you like rangefinder cameras but have a lesser budget there are lots of options in my shop at Etsy. Also exchangeable lens rangefinders are available.

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...
