Uniomat
My Minolta Uniomat rangefinder is proving to be a fun find. I won't give a detailed review here, but simply say I find it well balanced and a pleasure to shoot. It doesn't allow for as much control as a fully manual camera, but it takes nice shots. These were shot on expired Tri-X on… Continue reading Uniomat

This golf ball graced the entrance to Hellcat Swamp at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge last week.… Continue reading Golf Ball (P366 – 5/1)
Light (P366 – April 26)
4/26 - Beth & Cricket. I was experimenting with alternative lighting using a new flash slave adapter. This little $5 gizmo fires its flash when it sees another flash fire. It has lots of possibilities, and I highly recommend picking one up. 4/28 - First day with the new (to me) Minolta HiMatic AF2. I… Continue reading Light (P366 – April 26)
Foldex 20
One of my recent eBay finds was the Foldex 20. It's a 620 roll film camera with a folding body and an 86mm fixed focus lens. It takes huge 6x9 cm exposures. 4/24 - Merrimack River. Foldex 20, Portra 160My first attempts with it could be better. The red window caused a major light leak, and… Continue reading Foldex 20
