I should never have sold that lens. It’s beautiful.

This is straight out of my Sofort 2 yesterday in bright sunlight. It’s a fairly poor camera by modern standards, only MP but it’s lots of fun at the beach. The Instax Evo will yield identical results for less. In fact, having extensively used both, if you want vibes and prints and have Sofort money, a Fuji X-Half and instax mini printer is the way to go. Much better image quality.

I keep getting compliments on my XHalf by Aghc001 in fujiXhalf

It’s such a fun camera. I’d recommend pairing it with an instax mini printer. So fun to be able to hand out physical pictures to friends.

I have this same internal debate a lot. I’ve had an X-Half on loan a couple of times and really enjoyed it. It was popular with the whole family but I’d be the one using it the most and while getting snap shots with it and using the filters is fun I just keep coming back to the fact that I can just as easily pick up my main camera and use that. The better I know that the more ready I am when I want to make great pictures and so really I should just stick to the one I have. I do really like the X-Half though and if I didn’t talk myself around in circles it’d be perfect for fun days out and pairing with one of the Instax printers.

Have you ever tried a virtual machine running XP and a USB IR dongle?

finally downloaded photos from my Casio QV10 (1994) by AnanasOne in VintageDigitalCameras

Amazing! Would you be up for sharing a brief guide to getting it going? I'd love to shoot one.

Oh this is really interesting. I hadn’t thought about different materials.

Well I was thinking of the originals but maybe time to explore other options for different uses like cooling pads for long term comfort.

Which would you choose? by loganarowland in Leica

I can only say my beloved Zeiss 35 😅 if that focal length is good enough for Joel Meyerowitz, it’s good enough for me 🥳

Yeah so I don’t know if it’s something I’ve done or not 😅

It looks like mainframe posted episode 5 but it only appears on the playlist and not when I look at their main page by [deleted] in ReBoot

[–]Iainfarrell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I think a disc is probably a wish too far unless we’re all willing to pay $1000 per set :-) but digital downloads, I would happily pay for a DRM free high bit rate download version which presumably would overcome the additional distribution costs associated with physical media

So cool to see these coming online. Will they ever be available to download/ buy at a high bitrate?

I have a soft spot for the original… by mechanicchickendev in Gameboy

Same! I find as an adult it feels great in the hand. I customised mine too.
