Good bye DSLR, welcome Kiev 60

[Epimetheus]

Since I got an Epson R-D1, I haven’t used my DSLR at all. So I traded it with a pretty comprehensive Kiev 60 set. I actually had a Kiev 60 some time ago but sold it because it wasn’t working properly. I hope this one is a keeper.

Here is one of the most recent pics with Kiev 60.

Looks very nice! I've been tempted to make an outlandish trade similar many times but realized that I do still need my DSLR for work stuff and to get rid of it would leave me in a hole.

But if anyone wants to trade a fuji S3 for a nice user hassy set up let me know 🙂

Very nice pic, and the Kiev 60 is capable of some stunning pics, if you can get it to work right (as you know). Where else can you get that kind of MF glass at those kind of prices? Mine has an issue with the occasional overlapping or "kissing" frame. As an added bonus, you can do curls with it and build up you biceps.

Nice pic, quite emotional. It's not easy looking for the holy grail of what feels right shooting. I really like your website by the way - do you mind me asking if you did it from scratch or are using a particular package?
