Just got back from the photo society pub crawl.
So much drunk and so many camera flashes hurt.

Fuck punctuation.

I want this, but I feel it's way too expensive for a plastic camera.
I find 35mm TLR's rather pointless.
ok?

Please explain your logic good sir.

I was thinking about getting one of these too, but I share your same problem. Way too expensive, I could probably just go to a local thrift here, and pick up a TLR for twice as cheap.

it's a glorified toy camera for lomo fans, and takes film that you would probably get much better results from a real SLR you pick up from a thrift or antique store for the same price. Aside from the whole "dude this camera is so different, neat" factor, the big thing with TLRs is that they shoot 120 film or similar, producing huge, high quality negatives. Shooting to 35mm is just a gimmick to let hipsters use color slide film
I just looked at the store page, it's being presented as a fall fashion item like it's made by top designers, fuck. It's a cheap but expensive working replica of a good camera, and that really bothers me. Great, it'll be in working order when you buy it, but I'll bet the quality would be terrible, and it will feel cheap in your hands.

I was just wondering why he didn't like a 35mm TLR. I really hate toy cameras, especially overpriced ones. I think that a real 35mm TLR would be more practical if you didn't have that much money to spend on film and developing. I've got a few old TLR's from the 1950's but they only use 620 film so I could either re-spool 120 or 35mm so to me it doesn't really matter to me, I just use whatever film I grab first.
Just saw this on Tumblr, pretty cool.

Wasn't this from a face puncher? I remember someone asking why he got so many views and it was because reddit pointed out that there was no white m&m's in the first picture.
Lets see... judged by my flickr viewcount, here is the list of things people like seeing:
1. Pylons
2. Miniature villages
3. Small children
What they don't like:
1. Anything else.
2. See above.
Is it me, or is that a messed up combination?
your gallery requires additional pylons
i woke up this morning with a gigantic fucking stye on my viewfinder eye and it hurts and my eyelid is swollen as fuck
remember folks clean your viewfinders

I need to get myself an SD-card reader! I'm so tired of having to place my camera ontop my computer, plug in the usb cable and turn the camera on. It's quite tedious compared to just being able to insert a card and immediately transfer files

when I upgraded my "windows 7 ready" laptop to windows 7, there was a lack of drivers for it, so the built in SD card reader doesn't work, and it thinks my DVD-RW drive is a basic CD and won't read anything that isn't from 2001

A card reader will take much longer to transfer your files then plugging your camera in unless you pay for a higher end card reader.

It doesn't cost much to get a good one and I'm pretty sure it will be faster than my 550D
