I should have a new ground-glass for the 11x14 this week or early next, so I'll actually be able to put it to some use! I put a frame through the 5x12 this weekend though... went up to Antietam battlefield to observe some of the anniversary events - this year was the 145th commemoration of the battle. Just shot a frame of the Burnside Bridge, no re-enactments.

Just for fun I took out a Agfa B2 Shur-Shot Special that I just added to my collection.

Very basic camera, but has dual 6x4.5 and 6x9 format and a cheesy built in yellow filter.

I wasn't expecting much and some of the shots were underexposed, but some were quite decent.

I did a group shot at a car show with my 8 and 10 cirkut ( a roll in each camera), and shot some portraits with my newly acquired graflex home portrait 5x7 (first time out)
I think it's going to be a lot of fun to work with when I get the hang of it. I using the 3.5 ross xpress lense wide open and love the look in the finder

I used my Mamiya RB67 with 180mm lens at a ploughing match at the weekend. One DSLR owner commented "now that's a real camera!"

Yesterday, I pulled out my Nikonos II underwater camera to shoot photograph a birch tree turning fall colors that is growing out of an old car on the Snake River river bank in Idaho ("Detroit rip-wrap"). I wanted the image reflected in the river so I paddled my kayak about a mile to get in position. I forgot what color negative film I had loaded so I bracketed heavily. I just purchased a cheap Mamiya RB67 on e-bay. I look forward to using it but probably will not be carrying it in my kayak.

About every two weeks I roll in a differn't camera into the bag. Change is good, I think. But for some strange reason this week it's a Zorki 4 w/ Jupiter 3 f/1.5 5cm. There's just something about that blue viewfinder glass and that huge air bubble in the middle of the front element. Maybe this will be the camera that makes the front page.

I doubt it.

Saturday I was shooting with a Kiev 4a and ran into a guy using a FED 2. Nice to see a kindred spirit, especially with most of the other cameras around being d***.

Yesterday I went to the coast with my Kiev 60 & darn near turned it into an underwater camera when I found out the film counter had stopped working. But then common sense prevailed and I decided to keep it. Common sense is relative I guess bein' that I use a Kiev 60 in the first place:rolleyes:

My latest addition to my collection, which I do not know what to call.

I guess it is a Wirgin Adrette.

It is a bear to load as there is no opening back.

Sad to say all the frames had some weird cut of on the top right corner as if it did not get any exposure to that part of the negative.
I'll have to investigate that.

Other than that the frames looke very nice.
