i have this simple camera sitting on my desk for awhile and i decided to take out for a spin tomorrow.  as i have said on this post (click here), i don’t really like panoramas on 135 film.  i feel like its just a shame to waste that small 35mm film real estate just to cover up by masks. before loading up the camera i noticed you can detach the mask on this camera. yipee! so its off to the beach with the kalimar :).

here’s the camera with the mask on.

here’s after i took it out.

the viewfinder window on this is panoramic though. but it shouldn’t matter, i hardly look through focus free plastic cameras anyway. this should be fun.

snap sights! (film)

i decided to take the snap sights! camera for a walk one day. its an old plastic camera i have that i havent used in years. it came with a plastic underwater housing that looks like a cheap butter tray. snap sights! is still available worldwide, now with sleeker design.

i used a roll that was on my mju but decided to rewind after using up just 8 frames. the roll was kind of difficult to wind in the middle roll, i’m guessing the film got a fold somewhere in there. that explains why the mju rewound it mid-roll and that out of place double-exposure shot that you’ll see in a bit.

yep, thats my finger LOL
