Photo A Day 2010 – 07/25/2010

I realized I never formally introduced my new camera besides a crappy shot from my phone last week on Facebook. So. Here she is. The “new” Mamiya C33 Twin Lens Reflex camera with a Mamiya Sekor 80mm f/2.8 shooting lens. On the right there, you see the Voigtlander light meter that I have inserted into the flash hot shoe.

The fun thing about the waist level finders on these medium format cameras is how cool it looks looking at the scene through the ground glass. The image is flipped but it has this…3D look that you just don’t get from a normal viewfinder. Really neat. Mara mentioned this type of shot the other day so I thought I’d give it a shot :)
