Don't forget to load up and shoot your medium format cameras on Friday, Jan 20.

127 day is coming next week! To be honest I didn't get it at first because we use the little-endian date format in the UK not middle-endian as in the US.

Hi guys,

Here are a couple of shots taken especially following you advice (plus I had to finish that roll in the Bronica RF645) :

Didn't realize there was such a day. All I have is a holga. Think there's a holga day, must google all these days.

Yeah, who knew. Apparently we will soon need a Film Format Day sub-forum. 😛

World Toy Camera Day: 3rd Saturday in October (can vary)

Argust Day: Shoot your Argus camera (any format, including the in-name-only cameras made after the company ceased production and sold off the brand) on the day in August that corresponds to the last two digits of the year (ie: this year is 8-17-17)

120 Day: (2 days) 120 film (any format) on Jan 20th, and on the 120th day of the year (4-30-17)

127 Day: (2 days) 127 film on Jan 27th, and on the 127th day of the year (5-7-17)

Thanks farlymac. Again, who knew? 😛

I will try to remember Argust Day. I recently acquired an Argus Autronic 35 which seems to be working. I have yet to put film through it though.

Oh, those things will break your heart. Get a C-44 with the 35mm and 100mm lenses.

I sure don't expect miracles from it, but just want to try it. Also the side mounted flash that came with it. Assuming I can get a 22 (1/2?) battery. I also have a C3, but I don't recall ever putting film through it, or the one I had before our house fire.

Some things you try maybe once, and some not at all. 😛 Argus C series cameras are some that I just can't see to bond with.
