What have you just BOUGHT?

[Huss]

Just bought a Microsoft Surface Book 2, as my macbook air crapped out.....when I accidentally turned on the shower when I was watching movies in the bath.

Easy there cowboy, this is a family show!

 

[bideford]

Not easy to find....

Agfa Super Isolette in pretty much pristine condition (and serviced) - first roll out and all very good.

I bought an iGadgitz PT310 mini table top tripod.:

Click on thumb to see full aize pic.




Good: It's light, seems to be well-enough made for the box camera and folders I'll be using it with and is small enough to slip into the elasticated straps on the top of the Cullmann Ultralight Pro Maxima 120 bags I have, though i may have to put it inside the amazonbasics 'large' bag I have. It also has a circular spirit level. Has a ball and socket head with a quick lever-lock.

Not so good: The legs can only be closed or fully out and are not extendable, so no fiddling with the legs to get the thing level. The spirit level is hard to see when physically large (though quite light) cameras are used, such s box cameras. This lack of leg adjustment can be compensated by the easily-adjustable ball and socket head through a separate spirit level.


Edit: I didn't think of it at the time, but I've just tried to see how far the head can be tilted to get a vertical shot. Its' not possible to get vertical shots unless the camera has a tripod socket on one end.

a beautifully complicated Goerz Ango (Anschütz) 9x12cm, made c.1908, and complete with 3 double plate holders. 😎



As it looks as perfectly working, also several 9x12 film sheaths to be able to use the plate holders.

Picked up a Konica M-Hexanon 90mm!
I was having reservations after I purchased it after constantly finding reviews saying it back-focuses on digital bodies. Fortunately, this one focuses perfectly with my MP240!

Got this 1930 Zeiss Ikon Cocarette in a trade for copying a few old
120 6x9 negs from around 1935 that came in a negative film holder.
Like this...

I'll show a few I copied using my Fuji XT-1.

 

[Jack Conrad]

I used a copy stand, a Micro Nikkor 55/3.5 and a little light box.
Pretty easy, really. Inverted and touched up in LR.
Apparently it was a USAF Marching band outfit in China in 1935.

These three guys are all packing cameras. 😀

Looks like they're Marines. Which does match with China for the period.

So they're probobably from the 4th Marine Regiment, who were stationed in Shanghai between 1927 and 1941. They were nicknamed "(North) China Marines".

Cool stuff Jack Conrad.


I've bought quite a bit of 16mm Cine stuff over the last two weeks;
C-mount body caps.
A Filmo DA camera with Spyder Turret
1in, 3in, 6in (black) viewfinders for Filmo's
A 3in Wollensak Raptar (black)
A Filmo 141-A camera
and a Filmo Auto Load camera

Also got some brass hardware; chain, rings and hooks, to make something to stop tripod legs from spreading out too far when set up.

That's really impressive, a nice and real bit of history. I purchased on ebay a Kodad No.3A Folding Pocket with a roll of film already inside, but only with 2 or 3 pics taken. I'm trying to get it developed. In fact it's now on it's way (I hope so).🙄

Is this the 21st Century version of smoking in bed?😱
