WELCOME TO MY LIFE, LUBITEL 166B!


Also, I managed to get my old Kodak Duaflex III to work, but it only takes 620 format film. It is pretty much identical to 120 minus the size of the reel holding the film. So I wound 120 film onto a 620 reel in pitch black darkness. Cut my finger because 620 reels are thin metal. :( I would love to shoot with this camera more often but it is a pain to fit film into it AND a single roll of 620 film is like $12. Which is why I splurged on a little Lubitel. I'd like a TLR that doesn't need film modification to work. I do believe I can also modify that to take 35mm as well. I prefer 120, though.

I'm such a sucker for TLRs. Any camera that looks like it could be in Fatal Frame sounds good to me.

Happy Valentine's Day! I spent some time in the studio on Friday and got a couple of hilarious photos from that. My classmates, Kensey and Jim, are awesome models and are more than willing to put on silly costumes and do whatever in front of the camera just for laughs.

Jim is Raggedy Kanye and Kensey is a UPS courier taking flight. Can you imagine having packages shipped to you by flying Asians? I'm not sure I want to.
