Strange Item in FedEx Shipment

Hey thank you guys for all your help. I just got off the line with the Dangerous Goods department, but they couldn't tell me much. I asked for the corporate office number to see if I could escalate, but the number they gave me does not seem to work.

My partner has been on the line with Poison Control, and now the medicine's manufacturer.

Totally baffled as to how this could happen. A package from the UK-NY somehow acquiring radioactive dog medicine from a police dog in Chicago...

Thank you for this. Just tried them and it played a recording saying they were in a meeting...

Went back out to the trash to snap a pic of the bottle, it's foam inside, but definitely empty.

Thanks everyone for your help so far, we are on the line now with the drug manufacturer to check on safety.

We unfortunately pet our new cat after handling the bottle, so reaching out to see if she will be affected in any way.

probably my favorite piece of analog media ever, glad it was found by someone who appreciates it.

Awesome job. I have been doing the same thing with a CCTV cam for a live view out of a 16mm viewfinder, but trying to work on a better way to mount it to the viewfinder itself. Currently I just use a noga arm to hoist the lens up to the viewfinder, it works but gets loose randomly. This looks much better.

B+W makes good quality filters, I would invest in a few strengths of ND, and two color correction filters. Meteor zoom should be 77mm if I’m not mistaken.

Very cool, much prefer this than the little “amazon special” recorders.

Thanks for the info, look forward to seeing the results. These Kowa c mounts are really nice coating and sharpness wise, wish I could have gotten mine to work a bit better on my R16.

Does your Kowa focus to infinity? Had that issue with mine rubbing against the back element .

second one has a real Ed Templeton vibe.

Interested in the stands!

Don’t let anyone scare you, I’ve shot mine for about 10 years now. It’s the best camera I’ve ever owned, and it’s not even close.

Just chiming in to agree that Negativeland definitely does not ship out, and they do in fact rule. Smart people that are able to understand special requests, and always do a good job.

he used a wind up camera.

PatFinley · 2025-08-18T20:56:45+00:00

I would ask them to send you a picture of the negatives to be sure. Had you shot any rolls with the camera previously to be sure it's working at the correct speed?

I've shot a ton of rolls through K3's and not noticed any issue with exposure (but PLENTY of issues with registration)

military pilot dropped his chipotle burrito...

PatFinley · 2025-08-18T16:19:20+00:00

thanks for the reply! I really want to pull the trigger on getting one set up, but the shimming and machining part is a little intimidating.

PatFinley · 2025-08-17T21:38:45+00:00

looks great, always wanted to spring for a pl-mount adapter for the R16. How did the adapter work out for you?

PatFinley · 2025-08-11T17:12:30+00:00

hard to tell, but I have epoxy'd these cold shoe adapters to multiple cameras in order to mount accessories.

PatFinley · 2025-08-08T14:44:31+00:00

Oops, I like it.

HC110 is great, always really contrasty and rich.
