A friend’s tradition – I’m taking up!

So I was reading the latest issue of Shutterbug magazine and enjoying a lovely article on Toy Cameras which are one of my hobbies (and I almost always have one with me). I really love my holga camera and would say the only thing that bothers me sometimes is that there is no where nearby that I can go to get the film developed. Read the rest of this entry »

I enjoyed a wonderful birthday full of wonderful surprises around the themes of graffiti, photography and gardening! It was a really amazing night. One special gift I received from my aunt and was a vintage camera.
Since receiving it a few hours ago I have started some research so I can find a manual and learn how to use it! Here is what I’ve found so far:

Rollei 35 S
* Lens: Sonnar f/2.8, 40 mm
* Light meter: Battery powered, using CdS photoresistor
* Retail price 1976: chrome 470 DM, black 496 DM
* Number of items: 260,000
(Thanks to wiki for the info)
I am very excited to learn more about my new addition to my camera family!! Thanks so much Aunt J! I will post some photos soon.
