My Cameras

While programming is both my job and a hobby, I also love photography. I just don’t get paid for it — yet. Here is a little bit of info about my cameras.

Voigtländer Bessa R3M

This is a special 250th anniversary rangefinder camera that came with a spectacular 50mm f/2 Heliar lens. It has an excellent meter that seems to expose exactly how I like it. The controls are fully manual, requiring adjustment of focus, aperture and shutter speed. It’s not quite as “street ready” as its brother the R2A which has an aperture-priority mode, but it’s built like a tank and seems like it can handle quite a beating.

Minolta Hi-Matic F

This camera is a 1970s rangefinder with no exposure control. I love it!

Holga(mod)

Purchased from Holgamods.com, this camera is a medium format toy (yes, toy!) camera made in China. The fact that you can get it for $30 should tell you just how “quality” this camera is.
