olympus trip 35

The legendary Olympus trip 35, a popular viewfinder camera of which more than 10 million were produced between 1967 and 1988. It's a great and easy to use compact camera with a 4 position zone focus system and a selenium lightmeter for the Program mode. Here are some example shots on expired Kodak Gold 200.

An abandoned sugar factory somewhere in Belgium. Giant looming buildings filled with oversized machinery. Getting in was easy, but we knew there was security so we had to lay low. Rain was pouring down and the buildings were creaking in the ruthless wind, so we couldn't hear if someone else was walking around inside. After a while it stopped raining, and we could hear someone making his rounds downstairs, so we kept still until the noise disappeared. We were almost finished and we wanted to check the last building, the lab. Just as we were about to enter, we noticed a single trail of fresh wet footprints on the doorsteps. Someone recently entered this building and was still inside. We decided to bail and get out of there quietly.

zeiss ikon nettar

I took my Zeiss ikon Nettar 515 for nightly testdrive last week, it was the first time I used this cam and I noticed that it's really hard to get good compositions with the pop-up viewfinder. The camera is a medium format folder that shoots 6x9 negatives, it's also really well built.

I wanted to take a stab at some medium format night photography, so I loaded the Nettar with a roll of Shanghai GP3 and went outside to shoot some nearby streets. All exposures were between 30 and 60 seconds at f22.
