The lost Cameras (VIII, Minox 35 PL)

Since the beginning of my relationship with photographic gear in 1979 I lost lots of equipment.
Some cameras died, some were sold, some I gave away as gifts. Luckily the photos survived.

The Minox 35 PL has all the advantages and disadvantages of the Minox 35 series, but features a program AE; that means, you have no clue what aperture the camera choose and if you can use a certain DOF. The camera I owned had a extremely sensible shutter. Everytime the camera touched something a little bit harder it needed a service. So I sold it.



Rollei 35 (II) Color

Before shooting only Polypan F in my Rollei 35, I used it with color film. Here are some photos from 2008, 2009 and 2010. All films were developed at home in the Tetenal C-41 kit.













The lost Cameras (VII, Zorki4K/Jupiter-8)

Since the beginning of my relationship with photographic gear in 1979 I lost lots of equipment.
Some cameras died, some were sold, some I gave away as gifts. Luckily the photos survived.

I bought the Zorki 4K with J-8 (black version) in 1991 and used it some years before I sold it (because I didn´t like the crappy finder, if I recall right) I have two other Jupiter-8 now and I won´t sell one again!
