  1. This looks like a joke to me, a cross with a caster wheel?
  2. The Ligget drugstore chain used to sell a small plastic Univex camera for 19 cents that used size 00 film . I used it for several years before moving up to a Kodak Bullet. ($1.09. Never owned a Unisvx Mercury.
  3. I think the shadow of the photographer distracts from what would otherwise be a good moody photo.
  4. Hi Arthur, Condolences. Maybe you should try maple syrup. I believe a maple tree will produce for about 30 years
  5. Although I have yet to test it I have downloaded an iPhone app that seems to fill the bill. and it saves carrying two devices.
  6. Ludmila, you always find the best looking stray dogs.
  7. For an antidote ro this thread see previous thread, "Lake Reflections".
  8. George Eastman Museum is a fascinating place to spend a few hours. There are all kinds of cameras (not only Kodaks0 there. And f you"re a canal buff , the Erie Canal runs through Rochester. And the Eastman School of Music is in town.
  9. I"ve lived in New England all my life and traveled a lot here. Don't disagree with any of the advice here. But would add the following. If your'e going up the Conn. River Valley would take U.S.5 above Springfield MA and zig zag back and forth across the river (NH10 and U.S. 5 north of Mass.). East of Wells river VT take U.S. 302 south to Portland ME. If you're there early in the morning; a ferry cruise around the Casco Bay Islands is a pleasant, scenic break. I'm envious just writing about it. Enjoy
  10. I'm having a similar problem trying to mount an Industar 50mm, f3.5 on a Zorki e. The Industar threads in easily but stops turning about a quarter turn short of the underside of its flange seating against the mounting flange of the Zorki. I have a Leica Elmar 3.5 whose flange seats flush against the Zorki's flange.
  11. At least we get to see their faces. If they kept working we might not. Or else they might line up in front of the building and we wouldn't have seen what each one did.
  12. I remember a discussion here on Photonet that some of the makrolon was not completely opaque, enough so that all the film was fogged on some cameras. This discouraged me from ever buying one on Ebay But I made do with my Retina IIa.
  13. Both rangefinder and viewfinder windows are large (same size).
