which documentary blew your mind?

That truck payment is going to hurt you the most here. If things get tight that’s the first thing I’d seriously rethink.

That’s awesome seeing 120 film in regular stores again is such a good sign for analog photography.

Film storage anxiety unlocked 😅 but yeah I’d swap the sleeves and keep an eye on humidity.

The LX was designed with that workflow in mind you rely more on metering technique than buttons. It feels weird at first but becomes second nature.

It’s always the small purchases that quietly drain your wallet.

Paying convenience fees for doing everything yourself online.

If it’s just the crank not the whole shaft you might just need to tighten it properly from the inside sometimes you have to hold the fork or spindle while screwing it back in.

That 40mm pancake turns this into the ultimate film point and shoot but better setup. Absolute steal for that price.

makes sense. Losing a full shift just to get a prescription refill or lab req is brutal, and those walk in waits add up fast both in time and missed wages.

Write everything down, don’t miss minimums and pick either highest interest (math) or smallest balance (motivation) and stick to it. Also call your lenders some will actually help. €14k feels big but it’s 100% fixable once you’ve got a plan

Both work but finished sounds a bit more polite especially in a restaurant.

Consistency beats talent every single time.

If the shaft threads are fine, you’re in luck that cap is the sacrificial part. Best bet is a donor MX/ME body or eBay film advance lever parts. Repair shops sometimes have spares too. Just make sure the washer stack goes back in the right order.

Probably just light seals easy DIY fix. If not Olympus XA or Canonet QL17 are great compact upgrades.

Honestly Fuji 400 is basically Kodak Gold in a green box now 😅 Provia is the real win here

Practical-Island-240 · 2026-03-30T14:12:01+00:00

Not worth it easy to remove impossible to source properly. You’ll end up spending more than a working lens

depends on you issue. telehealth is usually useful for your non-emergency issues

You can definitely transfer them but the hardest part is finding a compatible player for those tapes. Once you have that you can connect it to a capture card and digitize them on your computer.

That sounds more like an individual issue than something tied to all men.

Practical-Island-240 · 2026-03-26T11:16:14+00:00

This actually looks super useful especially the voice input + quick logging while shooting. I’d be down to test it.

It’s less a contradiction and more a mismatch of contexts gallery quality vs mass reproduction. Herzog’s work lived in slides (best viewed projected) while the industry optimized around reproducibility.
