Trip 35 Shot

Very cool photo, thanks for sharing. The Trip is definitely a great camera, no doubt about it. Built like a tank, very intuitive to operate, and a great lens. What more could you ask for? Well, maybe the ability to shoot ISO 800 and 1600 film, I suppose... but other than that, it's a great vacation camera and an excellent daytime street shooter. I don't take mine out to play nearly as often as I should.
 
I've got a roll of tri-x sitting in mine at the moment...it hasn't had anything through it in years (was my grandfathers and bought new when they came out), I saw Rich Silvfers blog and his post here and remembered I had it. It's also the camera that I took my very first photo with, massive sentimentality.
 
If anyone wants one for the cost of P&P I have a "much loved", fully working one in my drawer.

I like it, the lens is nice. But, I always forget about the focussing and it is hopeless in indoor light (lower than EV7-8).

However, it is small, extremely tough, quiet and lovely cheap. Plus David Bailey did an advert for it.

I now keep a XA2 in my coat pocket instead.
