Beautiful camera, an absolute machine. It's a budget camera (at least in the 70s it was) so it doesn't have many special features, but that makes the basics really easy to learn since there isn't any fluff that acts as distraction. Btw Brooklyn Film Camera is a great online store for restored film cameras - I believe they offer national shipping.

you can find vintage ones for cheap since so many were made, my dad gave me his from the 70s. super simple point and shoot 35mm camera, meant to be a starter camera so it’s super easy to use

Out of all the medium format cameras I’ve worked with and owned, the GOAT as far as I’m concerned is the Pentax 67. Much easier to carry around and use than the Mamiya RB/RZ’s with exceptional build quality and durability. Stalked eBay listings for 3 years waiting for prices to drop below $700, and those years of waiting paid off in full. Prices vary from $500 to $1000, the sweet spot seems to be the $675 to $750 range on eBay.

Last Thursday, a meteor appeared in the night sky over Los Angeles. I stood in place for 30 seconds watching it blaze brilliant red and orange before fizzling out suddenly. The experience moved me immensely and filled me with a sense of hope that I hadn’t felt in quite some time. I read later that it was a SpaceX satellite. I wish I hadn’t.

There's something about a wet and humid early morning that heals my soul. It's like a free sound bath. Especially if you are lucky and have a little bit of thunder alongside.
