Minox photography in practice

[tjwspm]

Now that the number of my articles on the subject of Minox photography in practice has grown to over 50, I have decided to create a sitemap in form of annotated introductory page. All my Minox-related articles are now linked there and accompanied by brief notes on their content. I admit that this was also necessary because I myself was beginning to lose track. I now recommend this page as an introduction to all my Minox topics.

Important: I pursue Minox photography exclusively as a hobby. So I do not repair Minox commercially, nor do I sell anything.

Absolutely.

@tjwspm have you considered using Photrio's 'blogs' feature? No pressure at all; if you prefer to continue to present your work in the form of regular threads, that's perfectly fine, too!

I really like your writing! You're inspiring me to test out my father's old Minox EC!! It's just the cost of film and developing that's always making me hesitant of pulling the trigger!!

To be honest, I'm not sure how to use the blog feature. I registered my homepage there in April last year. Is there anything else I can do?

Do it! I took some of the best Minox pictures with the EC. The lens is top-notch. When there is enough light for f5.6 and you are shooting at medium distances, I think it is better than all other Minox cameras.

If you did that, I would have achieved my most important goal: to get people excited about Minox photography and these ingenious cameras.

The concept is that you upload each blog post that you want to be featured there. It will then (after manual approval) feature in the blog overview and people can comment on it. To be honest, the commenting option isn't really being used. As said, feel free to share your work whichever way you want; it's appreciated either way!

Now I get it: “Add Your Blog Entry” is the button. I just tried it out...

It works! It's now included in the Blogs overview - congrats! Feel free to use this feature anytime you feel it's useful.

Perhaps this should be publicized more widely here. It's a very useful part of photrio that I wasn't aware of at all.

That's a good point and we've discussed it briefly on occasion, and you're certainly correct that were not using this to its full potential as it is. Any ideas on how to better use this feature are highly appreciated!
