Didn't peg you for a tlr man JR. Just make sure you wipe them down first. Don't want anyone getting ill.

Good point! Thought I'd give it a go

The viewfinder will take some getting used to but you usually get a flip down magnifier to help.

I'm getting fed up reading the news online these days. Only one story, it's depressing and more or less the same every day.
This was a light in the darkness this morning.

Never had Kenny Rogers down as a photographer. And he started with a Brownie Hawkeye

I saw that. Google his picture of The Thumb.

johnnyrod · 24-03-20, 09:29 PM

By the way, did your missus get home alright?

yokohama · 24-03-20, 09:53 PM

The Thumb is really good; I like his Lincoln Memorial one too .... memories of Fallout 3.
Wife is coming back Thursday if all goes well. Only 2 days late but arriving on a different flight at a different airport.

Dennis Hopper was a pretty decent photographer as well.

Good news mate. Not sure if I've looked up Hopper yet. Well I've joined the Vivian Maier set as the two Ikoflexes arrived. I'll take some pics tomorrow. There's a late IIa which seems to be all working, Tessar lens, and a Ic with Novar but it's jammed, not sure why. The IIa seems the nicer of the two, it's a little sticky but i might be able to shoot a first roll, I'll need to check the speeds and collimation. One of them has a case, can't remember which one, needs a strap though. The meter on the 1c works but no idea how well. They look the biz alright, and you could really batter someone with one too.

I had a look at some of Dennis Hopper's stuff. Interesting. I never realised he'd such a huge collection.
