A keyboard engineered before 1989, manufactured around 1992 I think

Hall effect switches, tinned copper traces, TESLA ICs...

This seems to sum up my mainly used cameras pretty well.

I don't think it's going to change much in the next bunch of years. Mirrorless is still extra expensive to switch to.

Even though SLT is already kind of mirrorless.

I haven't shared anything I took on Harman Phoenix II yet.
Everything dark is green for some reason.

Feels more expired than my photos taken on expired Fuji Superia

I seem to have a few small holes in my shutter curtain.
The biggest spot shows up in photos sometimes. But it takes almost a minute with an uncovered lens for it to appear visibly.

"film shows serious signs of expiration"

Where?

Yes it's 14 years expired. But where?

I'm not an artist. But I did plenty of silly things on wplace already. Some of it is just an image. Some of it is lightly edited art to fit my needs.

I knew this is fishy from the lack of a datasheet.
Went through a bunch of info to find out what film this ACTUALLY is. Including buying one of them to inspect closely(sadly had to give profit to that guy).

The company owner refuses to give any detail and keeps saying marketing stuff.

A wrist strap intended for an 8mm film Zenit camera.
The camera is made of a solid block of cast iron. It's hard to even hold for longer. Imagine how painful it is when you drop it with this wrist strap on.

Younger Gen Z(under 19) has nostalgia for digicams. I myself grew up with film point&shoot cameras.

But this camera is pretty nice. It can't do macro at all though.
And you have to use NiMh batteries to get more than 20 minutes of use. Any AA batteries last barely one minute before dying.

Lovely. Buying an entire vintage camera with a lens in bad condition just to extract the takeup spool that my model misses is more affordable than buying a takeup spool.

I bought old film from Germany. The seller originally replied in english, even if I wrote in German(no it wasn't auto-translation).

Today I wrote them a message about the package not being delivered even after SEVEN weeks.
They got so angry at Deutsche Post that they went back to writing in German.

Tested out my Exakta Varex IIa
There are some photos that went well, and some that really show the problem with lacking an original takeup spool. It sometimes slips and doesn't advance the film enough

Good ones first

b&w photos too
film: Wolfen NP100(faulty roll)

Zoned out for a bit.
But here are some more photos taken with my Minolta Alpha 7xi

Film: expired Fuji Superia 200

Got a small suitcase full of cameras from my grandpa.
This one is my fav.
The lens is a Zeiss Biotar 58mm f/2
Only needs the plastic takeup spool and it can be used again.

Already cleaned the viewfinder and most of the lens glass

And two photos from a recent event.

@rokaj.bsky.social in pic 1
Lime in pic 2

Picture 2 is taken on USA-made Fuji 200, basically Kodak Gold.

Wow. I haven't done anything here for a long time.

So here are three random photos I took with my Minolta Alpha 7xi

Film: mystery 27-frame film from a Fujifilm single-use camera.

Shared the film to the dxdatabase film database github. Could be Kodak Color Negative 400 judging by the barcode.

I found out that the clicking during film winding is a lie. It's just a single purpose piece of plastic making the sound.

The real mechanism relies on the film perforations moving a gear that has a smooth motion and is attached to a cam lobe that resets the shutter at the end of its rotation.

Extracted the film from two Fujifilm single use cameras just to put it in my Minolta 7xi

There might be a reason why I wasted my time with it, I promise.

This phone is seen as ancient today. But it's still a great phone for basic video recording in 4K and sending stuff to people.

Nothing much more though. Most apps are unsupported since the start of May. Same with system updates.
