hey!
so I went ahead and finally got myself a ‘professional’ medium format camera. i’ve been wanting one of those since i first saw the results from my trusty old holga about a year ago or so - the size of the negatives, the detail, the depth of the images, the format itself. i grew addicted.
now, [...]
“THE PENTAX”
the local sunday market across the river sometimes have a few gems to offer. a few weeks ago we went over there primarily to look for some cheap, cool furniture - which we did by the way - but i also found me another one of those pentax beauties, the pentax mg! it came [...]

so i’ve gone and actually got myself a job as an assistant for a professional photographer right here in oslo. i’m quite excited about that, as you can imagine i’m sure. no pay, no fame, but lots of new ideas and useful knowledge. stuff is going on!

oh, and as i recall, the scanner i handed in was a canoscan 8600f. the gizmo in the box [...]
ebay sucks. it makes me drool. there are items in there that i really, really want. i’ve been slavering over a bronica, a hasselblad, a nikon. none of them will ever be mine of course. i’m an underpaid asshole so it’ll never happen - besides, most u.s. residents selling stuff won’t even ship outside of [...]
