Cool scarecrow man!
« on: November 02, 2008, 04:08:51 PM »
Found this cool black Diana F+. Anyone knows how on earth can I order one without knowing a single Japanese word?  :D I can get it shipped to a Japanese address ... just need some help on how to order one.  :'(

I don't know any Japanese  either but I clicked the big orange button that looks like a sort of shopping ... wheel barrow... maybe.. and got a similar sort of Shopping Basket looking page... looks like you have to register/make an account to order, though because there's two boxes below that and one says ID at the end and I assume the other is for password?  The button above the double boxes is probably the "create new account" button.
Thank goodness ordering pages are similar everywhere...

finally a pirate diana+? the first diana+ clone?
though it looks like a legit promotional product.

i would just email them and ask... when i've ordered from china, i just used google translator and included my english original just in case someone knew english (nobody did). they responded and we worked it out that way. in case they don't ship overseas. a lot of japanese companies don't like to deal with 'outsiders'.

I love the way these things have a lens cap:

"Throw away the bl**dy lens cap"

I've had too many of those, thus I leave the caps in the drawers instead  ;D

I am a photographer who photographs scarecrows with Diana cameras. I MUST have the Scarecrow Man camera!!! Can anyone help me order one and have it sent to the US? I've been obsessed since I saw this thread. You can see my work at

I would happily pay for help in getting this camera!
all the best,

Radosti,

You can try using this http://www.ebuyer.jp/order/step1.html

They don't accept credit cards from other countries. So I might have to use this service too.
