My new toy...
« on: September 24, 2008, 04:44:13 AM »
I think this probably extends beyond the realm of toy camera. I've been lured to the dark side...
My poor Great Wall has a complex now! I'm going California in a couple days, try it out.

I will happily keep the great wall as a foster child if you like :)

Now your smokin!
My Kowa 6MM is a beast I keep going back to - regardless of the Hassie. Lovely lens. Handles well too. Be careful not to use the extended handle on the film wind-on as apparently the gears inside can be a bit fragile.
Mine likes portraits the best :-)

Looking forward to the California pics.


Here's mine - captured on glass -plate
