photo from week 83 - Fujicarex II
Taken at near full aperture, the focus seems OK in this one, though several of this week's photos were out of focus.

Several of this week's photos seemed to be out of focus, this might be user error, though I have used many SLRs without focus problems, or it may be that there is some problem with the camera, anyway, this one taken in bright sunlight with a smallish aperture seems to be OK.

Week 84 - Sputnik stereo camera
The Sputnik is a stereo camera that uses 120 rollfilm, it is a twin version of the Lubitel 2 that I used in week 58. With only six exposures to play with, I will spend more time than usual choosing subjects and composing the shots, I've loaded it with a roll of Fuji Superia ISO 100 colour negative film.
A Collectors Life For Me
My latest column is in the current edition of Amateur Photographer, this month it's about the Baby Box Tengor that I used in week 20.

photo from week 82 - Mercury II
This week's mirror shot, I thought the shape of my daughter's wetsuit headpiece matched the dome on the camera that houses the rotary focal plane shutter.

photos from week 82 - Mercury II
With a focal length of 35mm, on a half frame camera, this is really a slightly long lens. I had envisaged making a sweeping panorama of this new building, but decided to take a series of fragments instead once I realised that the angle of view was quite narrow.

After a false start, when I discovered that this camera doesn't like being tilted, I got through the rest of the roll without any problems.
