Awesome man! Quad dude! Like the film version of Tony Hawk.
The Lomo LC-A 120is the most disappointing camera. Absolutely unique feature set, great light meter, super lens. But their lifespan can be measured in a handful of rolls. They are basically disposable cameras - the shutters fail. I’ve had two now that have failed after less than a dozen rolls. No way to repair.
$450 for a camera that lasts 10 rolls?? If Lomo actually made this camera a quality piece, built to last, I’d happily pay $1000 for it. It would be worth it. But $450 for what this is at the moment? Nope. If it was $100 still nope because after a few rolls you’d be wasting film. Shutter goes click, develop the film, blank film…
My new acquisition. Arguably the sexiest 35mm camera ever made. The Samsung AF Slim Zoom.
Very compact, very lightweight 35-70 zoom. And the kicker? Well two actually. One is that 'Snap' button. Push that and it sets the , uh, settings to 35mm, fixes focus to 10ft and f8. This way you can take a pic w zero lag - great for 'street'. Or in my case 'beach'.
Second is with two pushes of the flash button it goes into +1.5 EV exp compensation mode.
Bummers? exp comp mode lasts all of one shot. And flash settings are forgotten if you turn off. But waddyawant for $20?
Highly recommended - everyone needs a cheeeep excellent P&S. Learn from my mistake - do not buy an expensive Ti lump that will die on you. Buy a cheap plastic turd that is no biggie if it does...
From yesterday using a Mamiya c3 that I picked up for a song a couple months back. Expired foma 400, d76 1:1, epson 4990 scan. Maybe f4 or f2.8 (00/2.8 lens), 1/30th of a sec, hand held.

Who is developing Color (C-41) at home? I have a good bit of experience with developing B&W, and I'm wondering what color kits/developers you are using. I am really enjoying the photos on this thread!
I am. I usually use whatever is cheapest. Unicolor or whatever ultrafineonline has
