Akira Nishitani, the designer for games like Street Fighter 2 used his camera to take pictures that were then used to design the graphics in the games. Still from a Netflix documentary "High Score"... View AttachmentVery nice.  |

Cameraworld ad in the latest AP, looks like a Fed 3 variant to me. Are we so desperate for sightings that "in a camera magazine" is the benchmark?   Harrumph! It's been a while since a Fed has been advertised in a camera mag, sunshine! |

On the Chausee du Sillon in St Malo today - a chap with a black Olympus OM around his neck was engaged in a conversation on his mobile - a sudden torrential downpour developed from some light rain and I was unable to see whether he managed to protect the camera……as I was explaining to my companion that film-users were often referred to as dinosaurs, a white van drove past with a large ‘Jurassic Park’ sticker on the door…….looking for lost dinosaurs, perhaps?
Take care,
Mike

Unless there is another Nikon SLR with that funny green light across the top of the pentaprism housing, then there was an F4 in one of todays repeat of Forensic Detectives.
It's a good supply of film camera sightings - though most seem to have blank name plates.

Certainly looks like a Leica.

Yes - it can't be a Soviet copy (slow speed dial) and it's unlikely to be Japanese. It could be a Reid...

Could indeed be a Reid, I believe they were dirt cheap by the 1960s as they'd been taking up shelf space for 20 plus years. My mother-in-law's first camera was a Reid, sadly she worked in a fisheries laboratory where it was constantly exposed to salt water, and slowly rotted |

There are several in Last of the Summer wine series.
My favourite is in series two - using what seems to be a Voigtlander Avus or similar.
Used for macro, sports, nature and portrait.
Towards the end of the series there was a Pentax [Spotmatic?] with turned from one scene to the next into one of those £5 plastic imitation SLR things.

I think the last two were in separate episodes of the final series. I remember mentioning the Pentax on the old board and someone saying it was actually a Canon. The cheapo (an Olymia 5050, iirc) was in the final episode. And, to be fair, it did fall to the floor at one point so you can hardly blame them for using something cheap.

Is there an echo in here? |

Spotted this. This is from the movie "Rear Window" 1954. That's quite the gear set-up he has there. Identify? Also, did he really need that all that to just peek across a courtyard? |
