A very goth, surreal film photo. A cloaked figure stands in a mossy forest. The film has swapped colours, so all green moss and leaves are instead purple.
Hobby: lurking ominously.

I love the surreal ambience of Lomo Purple film. I love it for goth and spooky scenes.

A rat skull and a fox skull
First attempt: I calculated everything basically right.
Fuck yes.
Tested the medium format macro monstrosity on hardenbergia flowers, a rat skull, and a fox skull.
In theory this thing should have excellent image quality (the 50 1.8 is surprisingly nice) and be a nightmare to actually use. Note the almost total lack of exposure control, so I will probably only be able to control exposure with flash or filters, or just having the correct lighting to start with.
01.01.2025 10:15 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The obvious side effect of this is the changed focal distance: 51.5mm from lens to subject, which cannot be adjusted.
Aperture: fixed and unknown.
Shutter speed: set by the brownie, so only 1/45 ish or Bulb.
I've recently created the stupidest camera.
120 film, takes 68 format macro shots.
Body and shutter: a box brownie.
Lens: a broken Canon EF 50mm f/1.8. Which isn't a medium format lens. However, the lens is so far from the film that it should mostly cover the medium format frame.
