This was a $10 impulse-buy on eBay, for which amount of money I thought it would give me a few hours fun and it has.
Whether I'll actually bother putting another roll through it is another matter. I know I'm tending towards a very reduced style (black, white, not much detail, mostly forms) at the moment, but in my own way I want to have enough craft to translate what I see into either a screen or paper image.
The trouble (or the joyful advantage?) with this kind of lo-fi camera is that it introduces a largely random element into the process. That means you get the occasional serendipitous image, but also means you can have thoughtfully visualised shots wrecked.
So in the case of the chiropractors, I was lucky that the crapness of the camera didn't interrupt the strength of the composition (such as it is); but in the case of the old chap with the stick and hat, I think it's rather harder to see what I intended because of the shortcomings of the camera (and film).
anyhoo, I think I'm making this all sound a bit more serious than it should! It's a bit of fun and I'm glad people are amused or interested by the results.
I've got my KonicaTC and Yashica 124 back from hospickal, by the way, so I really ought to go out and take some snaps with those.
