Taken with Canon 40d With Holga Toy Lens

Just thought I’d update you all with what’s in my bag for 2013

So here goes!

The Bag - Acme Made Photo Messenger

This is a great bag for streetphotography  it’s discreet, light, water-resistant and it doesn’t scream photography bag.It comes with many other features including a lens cap holder built-in, will hold a playbook or anyother 7″ tablet and more little pockets than you can handle plus it’s only around £28.99 bargain!

Camera #1 - Zorki 4k 

If you’ve been following my blog for a while you will know that I’m a huge fan of this little Russian marvel. This simple design that somewhat  attempts to copy Leica from yesteryear but with added quirkiness.
These include such treasures as a cloth shutter that gets stuck if you change the shutter speed.

Camera #2 - Lomography La Sardina El Captain

A recent purchase of mine an extreme wide angle camera the Lomography La Sardina tis a camera shaped like a sardine tin. While this may sound ludicrous the odd shape is actually based on an old 1930s snapper – the Kandor Candid – made by the Irwin Corporation.

Along with the somewhat silly, yet endearing design, La Sardina also boasts a super-wide 22mm f/8 lens, while the flash has three different settings – a first for a Lomo camera.

I really looking forward to shooting with this camera and hopefully broadening my horizons ( no pun intended ) to using a wide angle for street photography.

Camera # 3 - Canon 40d With Holga 60mm F8 & Canon 50mm 1.8

This camera is a fantastic camera especially when used in conjunction with the Canon ef 50mm 1.8. Easy to use and amazing quality photos an absolute must for any photographer.

Film – Agfa Vista 200

A fantastic film availible for £1 a roll in Poundworld. Great colours with minimal grain which is fantastic for everyday use.

Lightmeter  - Leningrad 4 light meter

Another old Soviet classic i use even though it was made in 1968 it’s still spot on to this day

I hope you all have enjoyed having a peek inside my bag for 2013!

I’ll be having a closer look at the La Sardina & The Holga Lens for Canon in the upcoming weeks with some examples

Many Thanks

Chris
