Title: um. Toy camera lenses with DLSR anybody?
Post by: teddillard on January 27, 2010, 06:12:12 pm

 

Really, I have no idea where to put this, but this seemed, well, it's digital, it's a technique...  fair enough?  

I've messed around with digital pinhole (putting a pinhole in a body cap) and even I think I'm the first in history to take a photograph with a digitally enabled Holga (http://www.teddillard.com/2008/05/history-digital-holga.html), back in '04, but I just got hold of a Univex Model A camera from a buddy- a ca. 1930 bakelite camera, and got the lens out of it...  mounted it in a body cap and had a blast.  

Anybody else messing with this stuff?  

Here's my blog post about it:
