    It’s not finished yet Gigi-
    And I’m paranoid now that the Chinese are going to steal it…

    It’s just a box with a plastic lens…

    JEEBUZ Joseph, all you need is a plastic bottle, Corn Flakes box
    and a roll of double sided sticky tape and you can whip up
    something ina half hour!

    Fair Play.

    yeah yeah yeah-
    old one…
    and I know who he is now…

    That just sounds like a lot of old rubbish Alan-
    though not unlike what you just spent €23 on,
    moulded and packaged slightly differently…

    Anyway, all finished now-
    Altogether, about a day’s work gone into this one-
    easily €23 worth…

    Must try it out tomorrow-

    I heard he works to the theme music from, The A Team, smokes big cigars, and says “I love it when a plan comes together” when it’s all finished…

    Wrong pic Sinead, I’m the one that keeps getting beaten up by MrT…

    ok so, shot a roll today, developed at 6, dry by 8, just finished scanning now-
    It’s brilliant, I couldn’t have asked for better, it’s so- crap…

    I’m going to have a look at them now, might post something later,
    but this is the contact…

    That’s too good Joseph, you blew it… get on scratching the lens until you loose some resolution. The ones with the car are pretty cool, they need some more contrast and they will be brilliant.

    Awesome Joseph!! They don’t look that crap, Z might be right…

    3,5, and 7 look good, at a first look…
    Don’t you just love contact sheets from MF negs, cool as….

    Wrong pic?
    You mean this guy?

    Hee hee hee-
    yeah, that’s the fella-
    though I’m not as tough as him, couldn’t possibly wear Converse-

    Zoltan, those pix are too small,
    they are really crap-

    I’ve only done this one so far-

    so the middle seems sharp, and here it is- (Unsharpened, oversampled)

    but that sort of resolution is probably less than one ninth of the frame…
    Now if that was a Holga, the frame is square, and smaller, so the sharp bit is proportionally more of the frame-

    So this was a test of the focusing ‘mechanism’-
    this was focused at about a meter, at ƒ/22, so a bit of depth of field here-

    One at infinity, or beyond the hyperfocal anyway-

    By the way, that Tri-X expired 3/4/99, according to the wrapper-
    exactly ten years out of date….

    Wish I had some more…
