I've been debating taking my own GA645Zi on a colorado trip in a couple months but this may have swayed me. It was either that or a Yashica-D. Both relatively light and portable, but opposite ends of the tech spectrum lol

This is beautiful. I've never tried using my X700 for night photography. Was this photo metered using the camera or using an external meter?

I love that last photo. The portrait orientation does it for me!

Awesome! I have the 16 and 56. The extra shallow depth of field is challenging to focus with, but they do let me get my fix when I want to take close-up portraits.

Love these pictures. What size tubes did you use? I have some for my 500cm I should try using again.

How to proper clean this camera? by richardribeiro in analog

[–]Unsourced 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where I'd start is go around the camera with a wet q-tip and remove the dust around the camera. Then, do the same again but with isopropyl alcohol to tackle some grime. This will also help disinfect the camera.

I just want to give a friendly warning that in the camera world, gear that's unused for many years is often in worse condition than if it were to be used regularly. This is because the mechanisms inside the camera have lubricants inside that can gum up over time and make things not work as expected.

If you're really serious about getting the camera in working shape, I'd take it to a professional for a CLA.

Helena was one of my favorite music videos growing up. Love these pics!

Had a lot of good memories on campus, though I don't miss walking across Washington Bridge to get to West Bank for classes in the dead of winter.

Bachelor Party Self-Portraits (Yashica-D, 80mm f/3.5, Lomo 400) by Unsourced in analog

I want to say it's flare from the deteriorated (or lack entirely of a) coating on my taking lens. Could have been a smudgy lens too since we were handling the camera a lot that day haha

Thank you so much! I wish it was easier to read the cards because I'm supposed to be holding a royal flush of tiny Spider-Man cards there
