When I feel heavy metal
It’s been a week since my last post about “analog photography” now and I’ve got a few updates for you…
I’ve went to see my grandma as she told she still had some ancient cameras on her attic… Marvellous!
So I returned with some real treasures (imo that is)…
For starters – a Gevabox (from 1951) – I’ve got not a single clue as to how I’m supposed to focus with this thing, I think it’s just “hoping” that you’re right about the distance – et voila! push that button… Funky!
Next – a Kodak Retina (which I think’s from the first series, which makes from around 1934-36) – I like the folding a lot, this evening I’m going to find some 35mm rollfilm for it… b/w that is!
Then a camera which I don’t know the name or model of, I think it’s something from Kodak, but there’s no reference/modelnr to be find… Same as the Gevabox, it’s 120mm rollfilm…
And somewhat newer model of Olympus, still got to find out which series though… Along with a Telelens, Macrolens and standard 55mm lens…
Furthermore I got my hands on a “bargain”; 30€ for 3 minolta lenses, a minolta SRT-101b-body, various filters and other stuff, more important a remote-control-cable or whatever you like to call it… WooT!
Along with my SRT-100x that makes a great starter-set if you ask me…
If everything goes as planned, I’ll be making b/w-pix this weekend… Watch me shoot! 
PS: All I want for x-mas now is a Minolta Fisheye 16mm lens… or for my birthday, or for easter, or for……. Or I’ll just get it myself as soon as I see one popup on the net (for a reasonable price that is)…
