Non-RFFers using Fed's!

Incredible!
On one of my expeditions I found a special specimen of the tourist who was using a Fed (Homo Fedzorkus utilisator normalis). After quickly consulting with authorities it was confirmed that this could be indeed a member of a species thought to be extinct: The non gearhead related non GAS driven Fed user (Homo Compilator Cameravorens terribilis). In order not to provoke him, I avoided contact as to not compromise the results of my survey with unwanted interference in the unique culture of this species!

official reactions:

"Those photos prove nothing it's a hoax from an RFF affiliate"
Prof. Koprolithos author of "Film never heard of"
"I shed tears of happines and enjoyed when I heard of this marvellous phenomenon. Still had he used a Kiev....."
Ruben (heavily abridged quote)
"he could do marvellous Real Raw pictures of Grand Canon with that Camera as long as he uses Velvia. Which reminds me of my time as an engineer..."

A few years ago, Snappy Snaps featured a young lady brandishing a Fed 2 on one of their posters - to advertise their digital photo printing service.

Maybe he's using the Fed case to hide the Leica 🙂

Looks like he's looking for the guy who dropped the camera ... 😀 😛

Hey, well seen. I guess that you must have known he was a non RFFer because he is clearly not suffering from bad GAS?

I carried my Bessa R2 in a Kiev4 case, hope you weren't duped. (the Kiev was stopping the kitchen door from closing, I always did believe it had a use!

I had my FED long before i knew about RFF...

the quotes are hilarious!

"Hey, well seen. I guess that you must have known he was a non RFFer because he is clearly not suffering from bad GAS?"

It was simply his air of normality.......

two weeks ago I met a nice guy with a Leica in a Luigi case, and we both wore felt hats, glasses and beards....I guessed rightly to his RFF affinity...

The perpendicular dimension? He must be from around equatorial regions hence his position. Would be intersting to see an Australian then...

that horizontal dude is a well known RFF lurker.

On one of my expeditions ...

So what were you doing in Monastiraki?





(in Athens...)

Did you confirm that it was actually an FED in that case, or could he have been using it to carry a <gag, choke> Nikon Coolpix?

Not suffering from GAS and an obvious imposter as he has a case.

As to the Kiev as a door stop, I don't like that but I am a mellow type of person. But watch your back. Ruben will get you for that. 😀 😀
