    I'm buying one of these. I saw a professional photographer from NYC shooting with one of these.

    Really expensive cameras - $25 USD. D:

    P.S.

    I know that I'm a smartass 99 times out of 100 but I'm being completely serious.

    You have to use black tape to close it and seal it.

    KEEP THAT CAMERA!

    Do not sell it. If it's still in working order its worth a lot of money.

    I am jealous!

    I've a friend that took a lot of pictures in Myanmar with it - they're pretty good but I don't have a link offhand.

    The blemishes add character to them. ;)

    Yowza! that is nice!

    Will you develop your own B&W or have it processed?

    It was my dad's and takes great pics! :))

    Takes 110 film, and I still have the leather case, too.

    The Holga camera I will get processed - probably overseas. There is nothing interesting to take pictures of over here... :(

    The digital SLR I do black and white sometimes only when a picture calls for it.

    I take a different approach to photography - treat it like a job. I get into a zone and go for hours and often times the ones I think are silly turn out. I'd say about one out of 30 are what I want - I'm slowly learning quality or quantity. ;) But when shooting street shots that goes out the window.

    Ear buds go in and I get inspired with music - it works!
