Co-worker (Scott) cleaned out his attic and found a bunch of stuff he figured I might want. He bagged it up and left it in my mailbox at work. The stach includes B&W 35mm film, several rolls of color film both 24 & 36exp, as well as 36exp Kodachrome slide…..old school ‘eh? He also tossed in a Minolta light meter and a roll of 120mm which I’ve been using lately….awesome!

Thanks Scott!

Eight Steps To Facebook FAIL!

Step 1. Decide to post a video to facebook using the facebook iPhone app.

Step 2. Shoot, save, and upload video to facebook via the facebook iPhone app.

Step 3. Surf your facebook wall or stream via the facebook iPhone app only to find that the video did not post for all to see.

Step 4. Dig around your facebook site until you find your video within the “Video Tab” still hidden from others.

Step 5. Try to share your video via the facebook iPhone app and discover that the option is not there.

Step 6. Open Safari on the iPhone, go to the facebook mobile site and get denied yet again…can’t share.

Step 7 Use Safari to surf to the full facebook site (not mobile). Find the video you uploaded - then tag it with your own name and share it with yourself in order for others to see it on your wall or stream.

Step 8. Finally see it appear on the facebook iPhone app only to get an error message telling you that the video that you filmed, saved, and uploaded to facebook with the facebook iPhone app is not compatible with the iPhone or iPod Touch…..”Sorry”!

The latest addition to my small collection of vintage cameras. It’s the Yashica ELECTRO 35 GT.

The “GT” was promoted by Yashica as the “Gold Mechanica”. This is because all of the electrical contact points inside were gold plated to increase efficiency of the electrical current flow.This camera was a hit back in the 70’s due to it’s ease of use. With it’s 1/500second automatic all electronic step-less shutter, the camera was fast and quite. The ELECTRO 35 GT also featured auto exposure by way of automatically setting the shutter speed after you select the aperture. This camera lacks a useful hot-shoe but does sport a PC sync-port on the side. One of my favorite things about this camera is the super-fast “Color Yashinon” F/1.7 45mm lens. My goal is to use this camera outdoors (street photography) mostly, which is something I have yet to really dive into. I can’t wait to get this camera cleaned up in order to see what it can do.

This is the old focus screen from my Bronica ETRSi medium format camera. It’s got several scratches on the outer edges and overall not a very bright screen. It also has several grid lines to help compose shots which I never used.

I installed a NEW split-image focus screen which offers a brighter image in the view finder….I’m much happier than before. I also just picked up a sweet Waist Level Finder so I no longer have to SMASH my face against the rear of this medium format beast.
