my 3rd close up - so pic n°4 - is from this tag US GO HOME which isn't really a tag since it has no link with a writer anything, it was done with a brush and looks very old........... it could be a century old for all I know but i can't think of an (old) historical event when the French felt that strongly against that states.........maybe Wilson's arrival for the Treaty of Versailles in 1918 ? anyway i should go back and take a picture of the whole thing...

everyone should fuck around with a polaroid camera at least once. the films expensive usually, but it's worth it. they have their own unique quality to them. i picked up 1 really old polaroid cam (has bellows) and one current polaroid cam from goodwill for $1. If you need a camera and you plan on doing "artistic" photography, check out goodwill and salvation army. crappy cameras can take amazing photos :)

 

Wish I had a better scanner, can't get good scans of some of my black & white prints, so here's what i've got to offer right now (all 35mm. minolta x700):

Wierd.

 

First, I just bought a Minolta x700.

 

Second, I bought this camera on the left for 99 cents at Salvation Army.

 

Third, I just used that same Pentel White Out the other night.

 

 

P.S. You have some nice shots hyrax.

:lol:

 

I have a roll of Fuji 1600 speed film sitting in my x700 now. Need to finish off the roll.

 

The Kodak Instamatic has only one flaw. It takes 126 film. I've discovered that only two places in the U.S. develop that type of Kodak film. Grr.

 

As for the Hitochi, I developed a roll and it came out creepy. some light crept into the camer, but it looks cool. I'll post up in a few hours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Off to the camera store like no joke.

how about me trying to find a new battery for a 30 year old Camera, with the woman from the shop going through her booklet and saying "i'm sorry...... this camera doesn't exist according to this catalog" , and she was holding the goddam camera in her hands... :rolleyes:

tell me about it. I have a Polaroid 103 that I got for $1, and i'm currently looking for a battery for it. It's a weird 3v cell (PX24). I've found some shops online that sell it but I just want to find a store that carries them. Maybe I'll give Henry's a call today

 

Anyone happen to know much about the 103 btw?

I really don't feel like reposting all of these, but heres Older photo thread of mine

 

Also, about the trades: I've already worked out some shit with Rage, but anyone else interested in any of the pictures i've posted in this thread(besides the ones i said were from a trip to boston to visit the bro since those are digital), or any of the pictures from that other thread i posted above, drop me an email telling me which shots you want, and then we can work out a deal of some sort. That way i can try to work out a trip to a darkroom and get doubles at the lab all done at once for the first set of trades, instead of repeatedly having to go back and forth and shit.

digging through my parents closet, found this pack of polaroid 107 the other day. best if used before 1984. awesome.

 

 

 

 

time to see if anything will come of this....hahaha.

 

nice :D i've used polaroid film that had been expired for about 1 year and found that the prints came out ok, but the developing fluid actually leaked out of the corners on some of them, which was a bitchhhhh cause that stuff is caustic i think, and it sucks getting it off.

 

let's see some scans when you use it

yes! more tunnel shots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the use of the polaroid film was unsuccessful. the developer dried up or leaked out. i doubt anything wouldve come out on it seeing as how its been expired for 19 years....

 

 

 

and yeah, the gel is caustic. it causes nice alkali burns. awesome.

Question for anyone about double exposures...the question is would this idea hyrax and i were discussing work, and if not, does anyone have some ways that they personally do double exposures.

 

 

MrScojangles: Alright, so on your camera, you have some switch or knob that you have to turn before it allows you to rewind the film, correct?

antigregarious: yep

MrScojangles: the thought is that when that is turned to allow it to rewind, the film can't move forward, so you "cock" your camera to take another picture while that is turned, which means the film isn't going to move, but the camera is ready to take another shot

MrScojangles: which technically would be over the shot you just took

MrScojangles: i'm not 100% sure that this would work, but in theory it should...i'm kinda planning on testing that theory soon

antigregarious: hmm...if try to advance the film tho the reel's teeth are still in the film

MrScojangles: hmmm

MrScojangles: but when that rewind knob is turned doesn't it not allow it to move forward?

antigregarious: i dunno i could test it out lol

MrScojangles: like i said...it was just kinda a theory that might work

antigregarious: lemme go get my cam

MrScojangles: i think i'm going to grace 12oz with this conversation and see if anyone can back up or disprove my theory, or possibly tell me their ways of going about with double exposures

 

 

Anyone?

hmm, interesting. you're the first person to have that take on it. so with that fact you feel it looks like a model, does that ruin the image as a whole?

double exposure examples

 

Many SLR and some point-and-shoot cameras have multiple-exposure buttons that make creating such pictures simple; on some older SLRs, you may be able to override the film advance by holding in the rewind button while you recock the shutter.
