We checked out the latest edition of the f-stop swap camera swap meet this weekend. It's an odd mix of collectors of specialized antique camera stuff and vendors of more modern equipment as well so there are usually things for both Brenda and I to come home with. Last time we spent too much but this time, though we saw lots of awesome stuff, we managed to confine ourselves to a lens a piece. She got a funny looking telephoto for her old Leica and I got my first fisheye. We also ran into my old friend Charles Murphy who, it turns out, is a photo geek of the first order. Was fun catching up with him & chatting lenses & stuff.
One of the coolest things I saw was a 3D camera with a VHS instruction video hosted by Vincent Price.
I also liked all the tiny little spy cameras.
Afterwards we went to Monte Carlo to play with our lenses. Here are my first two fish-eye lens shots ever: One of our kind bartender, and one of brenda playing with her own new toy.
yes you are right!
