RFF Bloopers

[rover]

Titled in my wife's voice, "And you need a $2000 camera why?"

or in mine, "Bokeh Test."

Hold still now!

Do not know what bloopers exactly means 😱 ... but if we can post here our mistakes here mines:

Titles: "before buying another camera learn how to use properly the one you already have ..." #1 & #2

Camera: Agfa Isolette loaded with 35mm colour film and the back counter window open :bang: :bang: :bang:

Leica M3 + 50mm Summarit f/1.5 / FP4+ in Diafine ... and double-exposed (d'oh)

I will not post to this thread as I don't make mistakes.

And I might as well add I am miffed that more people don't recognize my artistic talents when pushing the envelope.

😀 😀 😀

Does shooting while drunk count as a blooper? I have no recollection whatsover of taking this shot of my gf.

 

[nico]

the dumb photographer strikes again ... one of my favourite mistakes: the finger over the skopar21 (my very best is shooting with the lens cap on, but there's no need to post and share here the consequential brillliant results ...)

I don't have any mistakes to post afterall I don't make mistakes.

Now there was one time I thought I made a mistake. But I was mistaken.

Oops, didn't fully extend and lock my collapsible elmar...

Nico - I like that first Agfa photo above. I understand why it may not work for you, but I kinda like it.

 

[nico]

Thanks Chris and Popstar ... making mistakes may also be a way to learn ... so i shot another 35mm film colour roll with the agfa taking care of taping the back counter window... tomorrow I'll get back the results from the lab ...but I've asked for cross-processing and maybe this is another mistake ...😕
Ciao 🙂

Loading problem on a 501CM:

Mike,
multiple exposures work perfectly here!!!

 

[lff]

rogue designer....shooting while drunk is anything but a blooper!

It is when truly great art is created!

What would Bukowski be without a bottle of scotch?

Here's one of my souvenirs from a trip to Blackout Island. Otherwise, I have rolls & rolls I squandered shooting when I shouldn't have been. I'm lucky I haven't lost more equipment than I have.

Oops, didn't fully extend and lock my collapsible elmar...

I've made the same mistake with my Super Press 23 and the collapsable 100mm f/3.5 lens.

Well actually it wasn't really a mistake. Did I mention I don't make mistakes, just failed attempts at haute art? 😀

Look what I can do!

Look what I can do!

And I did it with a $500 Canon G7! (not ahem *exactly* an RF, but it looks a bit like one!) hehe

OK OK, here one done with an actual rangefinder camera! (R-D1 w/ 40 Nokton)

Mike,
multiple exposures work perfectly here!!!

Thanks Nico. I've never tried them intentionally, but I might with my Nikon S2, which makes it easy.

Get an Argus C3. Easily THE best camera for double and triple exposures.
