Camera Porn Thread

Mint in Box, who has 32 grand?

 

[Balto]

^the f1 renders better and can be had for like 7k

 

[Laurent.]

Emotion beats rationality in this case, just look at that thing, the moment you see it you want to make love to it.

Something rare now: an Angenieux Zoom Lens 25 - 250 mm f/3,2 with Nikon mount:

 

[1337]

^actually more common now (via modification of a PL/Arri mount lens) because of the RED's

 

[Laurent.]

Ah well, still not that common of course.

It's a great cinema lens, so dreamy and creamy wide open.

[Balto]

This is really the leica porn thread

 

[Laurent.]

But to be fair in camera land they are sort of the equivalent of a supermodel.

The both are:

Incredibly good looking

Well made

Expensive

Light and thin

A bit quirky

Pretty darn rare

And did I mention expensive?

 

[Balto]

Yes I know, I own an m6

 

[Laurent.]

I've had an M8 for a while, until it got stolen then used the insurance money to fund some other stuff. I still miss it every day.

Also right now ebay for a hundred grand, one of the rarest lenses ever:

The mighty Nikon 6mm f2.8, 11 pounds and 220 degree viewing angle.

 

[CrotchKiller]

muuuust seek and destroy.... all of them

[skiRay]

[Balto]

updated shot of my m6 w/ black dot, gordy strap, 35mm 1.2

 

[thehighestllama]

My father's old Minolta SRT-101 with a Rokkor 35mm f/2.8

 

[Laurent.]

I'm so tempted to buy one again.

 

[hollygrove]

glad some one gets it!

a field camera is next on my list for this summer. These wooden Shen Hao's are beautiful cameras and can be picked up for ~500 bucks.

Whoa that thing is sexy. One of the main reasons I didn't go large format is because I can't afford the film. That, and I love square format.

 

[Laurent.]

Rangefinder orgies:

 

[TijmenDal]

Field camera's are awesome of course, but you also have to dish out a lot of money for a really good tripod.

And some Canon 7 porn, because that's the camera I've been shooting with lately. Yes, a Leica is better, but only a litle; considering how much a Canon 7 costs, it's a heck of a deal. Gotta love it!

 

[zbphoto]

MMMMMMMMMM

 

[[~_~]]

This thread has too much 35mm.

 

[vandersteeze]

this

needs more 6x17

 

[[~_~]]

I might be the only person who does not enjoy panoramic photography.

 

[vandersteeze]

You love the exact opposite of panoramic photography.

 

[1337]

17x6?

 

[[~_~]]

A vertical panorama is still a panorama, you plebeian.

If I didn't think karma was the stupidest thing ever, I would "upvote" you for a Simpsons reference.

 

[Laurent.]

For the oil sheiks on NS:



Leica M6 Sultan of Brunei GOLD Edition

And it didn't spend it's life on a shelf, it's actually been used: (Or the shelf collapsed)

 

[BrightonFridays]

^ woah

 

[CliffyByro]

is that actually called the sultan of Brunei edition? Haha

 

[Laurent.]

Actual name is:

Leica M6 Sultan of Negeri Brunei Darussalam Silver jubilee GOLD Edition

Not joking, apparently besides being a keen car collector with a collection of over 6000 cars the the Sultan of Brunei is also a keen photographer.

To stay on-topic, a collection of pornography in 1990's resolution:

 

[skiRay]

this has probably been posted but just incase

[MikeRonzitti]

Canon T3i, Opteka 6.5mm fisheye



Kodak Brownie: Camera II



RCA VHS-C, not sure what model it is but i just recently found it in my closet.

 

[CrotchKiller]

i don't think you understand ^

 

[vandersteeze]

 

[vandersteeze]

 

[MikeRonzitti]

what do you mean? isn't this a thread to post cameras

 

[Balto]

Attractive cameras, not shit

 

[tacotom]

I love this thread!!!

 

[Laurent.]

To get this back on track after that filth someone posted earlier today.

Some well worn, black painted Leica's revealing the brass:

 

[TijmenDal]

That's what a Leica should look like! Love it.

Don't understand why the Sultan of Brunei didn't opt for a M2/M3 style film advance lever though. The M6's is so ugly imo

 

[Laurent.]

It is supposedly more comfortable.But yeah the black plastic part looks ugly.

That's why peope who get annoyed buy it change it out for the lever from the MP since that can be had new for a mere 170 bucks.

M6 with MP lever:

Looks a lot better.

 

[Balto]

Been planning on doing this and the VF upgrade to mine

 

[TijmenDal]

Looks soooo much better

 

[Laurent.]

 

[gordie.]

Don't have any still camera porn to offer up, so here's some film/digital cinema setups!

Any guesses for this bad boy? Not the greatest photo but I was busy working and didn't have time for a good one.

I posted this Red MX setup some time ago

View attachment 416641

and one of my favourites for shooting 16 -- Arri SRII!!

 

[Laurent.]

^ Pictures need to be better to qualify for Camera Porn.

Like these pictures of worn Leica's:
