Desmolicious wroteOkay, we still need nine more people but the project has officially kicked off.

Some changes... instead of the crappy Pentax I was going to use, we will be using the awesome Fuji Work Record. Super 28mm lens, huge viewfinder, and just two buttons! Small red Power to turn it on and off. Big honkin shutter button.
The cool thing is this camera winds the film all the way out so the starting point is 36 exp, and will count down from there until we are done.
I have taped "REMEMBER TO TURN OFF!!" onto the back of the camera because this camera does NOT turn off by itself. If you leave it on, the batteries will eventually die.

Cool, looking forward to it. How are we going to handle the logistics of sharing ship to addresses for the next person?
I am going to gather all the names/addresses, then share what is needed - so for the recipient and who he needs to ship to.
Then that person, and who he needs to ship to etc.

So everyone will know who/where they are sending the camera to. But they do not need to have anyone else's name/address.


Excellent, thank you.

I admire you Sir, for being true to the P&S roots. But the rest of us are hipster poseurs and the HP5 has already been loaded.

Yes. You will know who is sending it to you, and who you are sending it to.

Yes. You will know who is sending it to you, and who you are sending it to.


I was thinking we could use on of the online mapping apps and drop pins of all the locations it is going to. Not by name or address but maybe just by city. One color for where we have a photographer, one color for where it currently is, and a third color for where it has already been. It could be fun to watch it's travels.

Woohoo! A camera with two buttons and a rock steady film! Thanks, Huss!!

Is it a US kind of thing or can I from Sweden join? I know it’s going to be little more expensive for me and for another person but it sounds fun so why not?

Okay, as long as international is okay (I'm in Canada and I see we have at least one other Canadian on the list), I'm in!

I like the international concept. In fact I think it would be cool if we ended up with a project that curcumnavigated the globe.

This is not limited to the US. The more the merrier! Two from Sweden now.
And at least three in Canada.

Glad I got here before the first round was full. Count me in from NC.

If we ever get crazier, I’m game to ship one of these… Ikonta would be a shorter list.

First or last!

Steve, you will be going first or second. I'll hand off the camera today. And you'll have a few days to mull over your one shot as I need to get everyone's info. There are quite a few people in SoCal so it would make sense for those to go first.
