My Dad took this from his bike on the Royal canal with a normal digital camera, if anyone has any way of improving the picture that would be great, he's very proud of it

Hey Chorcai, I have one of those lubitels. To focus it, open the waist level viewfinder. Inside there is a little part, kind of like a mini magnifying glass. Its tucked in at the side. Pull it out and then you focus in the middle of that little mini viewfinder, by twisting the bottom ring on the front of the camera. It won't be as sharp with 35mm film through it because the film doesn't really ly fully flat. It does look cool though, when you expose an image right out to the holes

PM me if this isn't making any sense and I'll try to explain it better!

Oh cherrs for that, I guess its more when rather than how, the grey circle makes it slightly hard to see when something is in focus. thanks for the tip Katie.

The icicles hanging from the skylight were just too hard to resist photographing

Kalvag, Norway in July 2008. The Asgard II ship in her element just two months before her sinking.

Yashica T3
Carl Zeiss Tessar T* 35mm f2.8
neopan 1600 @iso 1600

the lens on this chunky 80's point&shoot is AMAZING! I sold one recently for around 35euro, hope the guy realises what a bargain that was.
I have one for myself anyway

T5 and T4 are both the same, just named differently for American and European markets, not sure why. they both come in 2 different models, 1 with a 35mm f3.5 and the other has a 28-70mm which is no good in low light and the flash isnt great.

I think it depends if you get the T5 or the T5 zoom model....zoom model is muck compared to original.

well thats what I said, theres a T4 with prime lens and T4 zoom lens, T5 with prime lens and T5 with zoom lens

T5 is european version, T4 is American version. both exact same model/spec except for the name

A that explains it, yeah its the f3.5 that seems to be popular (and a bit too pricey)

Here another electro35

Those Eddie Rockets joints have the potential to be the most photogenic locations in Dublin. I love them
