Olympus OM2N some more

The Olympus M-2N is a great camera, small, easy to use with accurate lightmeter. The Zuiko 50mm / f1,4 is a sharp and luminous lens.

Some more samples from the 800 ASA Fuji film.

Agfamatic 2008 pocket sensor, 110 film camera.

The Agfamatic 2008 pocket sensor is a 110 cartridge film pocket camera made by Agfa. There is a selector with Sun & Cloud weather symbols that selects between 1/100 and 1/50s shutter speeds. Aperture must be an f11, no focusing is required. As all of the pocket Agfamatics it has the push-pull film advance, meaning that closing and opening again the camera once after an exposure causes the film to advance to the next image frame.


I have to find a 110 film and test it in a bright day...

Horizon 202, more panoramic pictures

The Horizon 202 is a very capable yet simple camera. It needs no focusing and exposure must be determined by the user. There is an air buble level to help keep the camera horizontal, in this way horizontal lines passing from the center of the image are kept horizontal.


Here are some more samples from the film that I did not correctly loaded.


The last frames had an overlap, I thought the advance lever was stucked. but it was the end of the film

TIME Magazine camera, some more.

The TIME Magazine Camera was a gift for the TIME subscribers. The camera is plastic and looks like a fake SLR. However the pictures are not bad, for a toy camera.


Here are some more samples

Horizon 202, wide panoramic and impressive pictures

The Horizon 202 is a great manual panoramic camera.


 This time I did not loaded the film well, it was not laid out well and gave some out of focus areas at the right side of the images.

Here are some samples

Olympus OM2n, a real gem

The Olympus OM-2n is a small and precisely engineered SLR camera. Mine has a Zuiko 50mm f1.4 lens.
There is either aperture priority setting (Auto), you only have to adjust the aperture ring, or Manual mode, you adjust the aperture and shutter rings till the needle falls between the + and - sign.

The lens is fast, so I loaded the camera with an 800 ASA Fuji film and went shooting at night.

Here are some samples
