I had to stay up half the damn night waiting for my kids to get back from the Billie Eilish show… so I figured screw it, may as well pull an...
If he has anything German made to get rid of, tell him to holler at me!
It would take me all day to pull out all of my shit to prove my complete lack of self control when it comes to vintage camera gear, but I'll give...
Beats me... or the wild consistency is why they saved the cards...
Here's an example of how I got here. First shot is of a friend's kid in Hawaii... I shot it using a Leica M11 and a 35mm Lux. I just took it back...
I hadn't even thought of that.

OK... Here we go. These are straight out of camera (Fuji GFX 50R). The Fuji Recipe is the McCurry Kodachrome based on Classic Chrome. It's the...
I love the Fuji recipe… I like it far better than real Kodachrome. It gives you the color pop without losing all the dynamic range of the xtrans...
Obviously guys... We don't feature Pro-Mod stuff here. If you want to post it, please use our off topic forum.
So you guys are saying there's a chance... :) What I have is certainly not a photo. It's a scan of the actual paper this was sketched on. I...
You joke... But I'm hot on the trail of Ron's kin... Trying to figure the validity of that sketch. It seems way too fresh to be a pencil sketch...
Ryan submitted a new blog post: The Very Beginning of Russetta [IMG] For the past week or so, I’ve been hovering over another corner of the...
you can use iso alcohol, but be super conservative with it… I’d try a dry microfiber towel first…
also… that slide looks like it might have some age to it. They usually turn more purple… at least the ones I have.
You could get Kodachrome in 25, 64, and 200… Most common was 64. The grain in the photos I posted emulates 200. I used old National Geographic...
For the past few months, I’ve been completely consumed by photography... work, play, and whatever’s left in between. It all started with those...
I just opened a directory within the Russetta directory titled, "The Beginning". Holy hell man... I'll. post tomorrow.
My favorite angle of this whole thing is the Vic & Fran versus Cobbs dynamic. We know for a fact the Goleta drag race happened because those...
I already tried… basically got what I got. I think @Joe Blow is closer.
It's driven me nuts for years as well... I've seen it both ways in advertisements, catalogs, and old mags...
Awe... good work sir.
In the archive, there are probably close to 50 or 60 programs in all. This was just the first that I opened... It's seemingly endless and...
I'm really struggling with Tom's handwriting... Maybe some of you guys can make more meaning of this, but here's what I got so far: Image...

Honest cars make the best cars.
Something fun to think about. This image by Eric Rickman: [ATTACH] Was taken with the exact same lens (not model, but the EXACT lens) as this...
That must have been a while back... Lens adapting is a huge industry now and the primary reason I'm into this silly shit. I absolutely love...
BTW, I know only one or two of you are even the slightest bit interested in the camera nerd shit, but here's how the thing looks when assembled:...
Our first spot was across the river, and man, it was perfect. The sun hit at just the right angle, the water caught the light like glass, and...
