The magic camera is here...

[87natty]

Do you think that something like this would be cool ?

Definitely! Look through the viewfinder, everything is backwards! It's a trip. It's supposed to take 620, which is no longer available. Go to a photo store and get a roll of 120 film and see if it fits, some do, some don't. You can re-spool the film, but it's a little work. If the 120 fits, or you don't mind re-spooling, it's a hell of a camera. Take it to a repair place for a CLA (clean, lube and adjust). If it's too much hassle for you, I'll be happy to take it off your hands.

I think I have another one kicking around here somewhere. I'll
post a pic if I find it. I also have either a Vivitar or a Kodak "disc" camera
somewhere.

Any pics of your teacher ?
   (nude ?)  :rofl;

I may even have some pics that I took with a "pin hole" camera
made from a Quaker oat meal container back in Jr. High.

I also have a Ricoh 35mm SLR thats still my favorite. Every
now and then I look for different lenses for it. I've always wanted
a fisheye lense and a zoom substantially larger than 210mm.
But that stuff usually doesn't turn up inexpensive. Not to mention
almost non-existant for a Ricoh. If I had a Canon or a Nikon, they're everywhere.

You can score adapters! I want a medium format SLR, but they're pricey. Looks like I'll go Soviet, with a Kiev 60 or 88. I've always wanted to make a pinhole cam myself. One day I will. I'll keep an eye out for lenses. What model Ricoh? You might interchange with Pentax lenses...

Rob, as long as "wicked" is at the end of the sentence, it's not considered New Englandah. Natty can't crossover to that, it would be a wicked shame.

Speaking of which, I think I heard Sylvan say "fierce" a couple times in Vegas...

It's part of my retro-speak campaign in which I relive my wasted youth through talking like I did as a kid. Fuckin' harcore.

Ok...ok, I'll drop it.  :rofl;
