In 2010 I decided to start taking photos with my collection of film cameras, using a different one each week. After 10 years, and 522 cameras, I brought the project to a close. I have been writing a regular column about it in the UK magazine "Amateur Photographer" since 2011.

Week 94 - Cosmic 35
The Cosmic 35 is one of many similar models made in the Soviet Union in the 1970s and 80s, this model was also called the "Smena 8" in some countries. With a 40mm f4 lens, and shutter speeds from 1/15th - 1/250th, it can be used in a range of lighting conditions. There is no double exposure prevention, so it is possible to fire the shutter as many times as you like before advancing the film, I intedne to try some double/multiple exposures this week. I've loaded it with some expired "Boots" ISO200 colour negative film.
