That - pardon me - "mortar" looks 3d-printed - isnt it? Size 6 x 24? Where to get the file? What kind'a lens is mounted?Half-frame is a state of mind.
My Pentax 6x7 is almost 1/4 frame in comparison....

thank you 😎

Hmm. I have done many, many photos with my Minox B, C, EC, and IIIS cameras. The format is 8x11mm. Seems to me to be a full camera.Half-frame isn't a full camera, so it doesn't count.
Now thats a great group shot!, always had a soft spot for SMC glass![]()
You know you want one..... (my spotmatic is missing from this pic....)
This is what happens when you take in a stray! Looks like the new Rollei has a healthy appetite; let him eat all he wants, and he'll be your loyal companion for life.Some food for my Rolleiflex
Any idea if there's a fabric version of the Type C from Strapateer? Strapateer only seems to make leather but I'm curious if there is a braided nylon competitor.A couple of new straps - one from COOPH and the other from Strapateer, as I had a critical failure with one on my m7 last weekend where I was crossing a stream and broke - thankfully caught the camera before it hit the water and rocks
Nice looking camera, they are supposed to be quite good. Have fun with it.All the talk about the new Pentax film camera made me curious about 35mm half frame so I ordered this less than a week ago from Japan. It arrived this afternoon, CLA'd and meter works. Looking forward to using it this weekend.

Check out Hyperion Handmade Camera Strapsbut I'm curious if there is a braided nylon competitor.
Sorry, missed this. Yes, it is 3d printed.That - pardon me - "mortar" looks 3d-printed - isnt it? Size 6 x 24? Where to get the file? What kind'a lens is mounted?

Sorry, missed this. Yes, it is 3d printed.
I took the Kraken 612 and then modified the base body to clean up and to require less supports while printing, fixed a couple of issues, designed a new rear door, added heat inserts for lens mounting and altered the cones for a more secure attachment of the helicoid. Then expanded that to 617 and 624 and changed the lens mounting method for those and designed the lens cones for them. I also added an additional light trap for 624.
That Kraken 624 has a Fuji 105mm F8. I've also built other 624s with the Rodenstock 115mm, Kodak Wide Field Ekar 135mm and Schneider and Nikon 180mms. I just finished one with a Nikon 90mm f8 but haven't put a test roll through it yet.
Guess so, especially when you built the printer too. 🙂I suppose if you’ve got a 3D printer you have to find something useful to do with it🙂

Once you have a printer, you'll find parts to print that you never thought of before.I suppose if you’ve got a 3D printer you have to find something useful to do with it🙂
