Vintage film cameras

Nothing inspiring from my roll either, need to work on my horizons! I did manage to get the sprocket thing sorted, not sure how though. Cheesy attempt at mirror selfie

Watch at your own risk, may cause GAS!

Blimey! That's a lot of gear. Yeah I've got some settings for the B&W shots, will have to find them. At longer distances any focus inaccuracy disappears, I'll check the RF again.

Fingers crossed. Sorting the focus on that camera has been a right mare! Fingers crossed my OM gear will be ready to be sent back on Monday, sent it off in October so it's been a while.

A real Aladdin's cave that youtube video. I notice WYC Nikon F2 stocks have multiplied too.
I took the Yashica FX-D out for a walk every day this week, different lenses each time. I'm halfway through a roll of 36.

They seem to be quite popular, glad I grabbed mine when I did. Hoping to hear from Howard tomorrow as I'm itching to get a deal done. Can't really go anywhere but you know what its like! I hear in the news they are talking about bringing in curfews and one hour limit of being outside for exercise. Not sure how they will enforce this though.

I put a low offer in on a Seagull 203 rangefinder last night. Starting price was £46 plus post so I popped £35 on as the bellows have a slight misfold. No response from the seller but with a few minutes left of the auction ending and no other bids the offer was accepted. Seems to be in good condition but it doesn't have its 6x4.5 mask so it will be 6x6 only.

I watched Kodachrome on Netflix earlier. Good film, some camera open in the form of a Leica M4-P.

Seagull looks nice though I hate the light value system, you have to lift the spring catch every time you want a different exposure at a different EV.

I did read about that but didn't really pay it much attention. I'm sure it will be OK. Seagulls are quite uncommon in the UK and I'm trying to build up a good collection. I rearranged one of my display shelves to get the Contax in display.
