the new camera prompted the customary orgy of book-ordering; however, only Jeff wants a Leicaflex book signed by author Theo Kisselbach
please note: chromogenic Ilford XP2 Super scans much better than HP5 or Tri-X!
Gabe visited with Sissi Lu, who has a new podcast and showed off her Kodak Charmera

Gabe went on a sudden mad hunt for a Contarex Bullseye and a 50mm lens

Episode 85 • “He looks like that fella in the movies… you know… Ralph Bellamy”
I Dream of Cameras kicks off the new year with another blockbuster XL episode! Jeff chillingly limns the hundred-degree delta between Jamaica and Iceland, and how the Fuji GA645 and Hasselblad XPan fared in each. Gabe exhumes some old warhorses from the back of the camera cabinet. And they top it all off with some STRONG OPINIONS about a new film-camera book. Tune in for all the fireworks!
* a scant 13 days after returning from a beach vacation in Jamaica, Jeff jetted off to Iceland for New Year’s, toting along the Fujifilm GA645 Professional and the Hasselblad XPan — how did they fare?
* Gabe recounts a recent photo shoot with the lovely Lyliana Wray, featuring the Nikon D700, Canon Sure Shot Owl and Jeff’s beloved Olympus 35 RC
* in the course of reorganizing, Gabe unearthed a few long-neglected cameras he wants to shoot with:
* Exakta VX IIa
* Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta
* Pentacon Six TL
* and the mighty Graflex Super D
* at Jeff’s behest, the heroes at Ausgeknipst made a PX450 adapter for the Alpa 10 series
* welcome to another edition of Jeff’s deeply nerdy “Nobody Cares” Corner! this time he does a lengthy exegesis of camera serial numbers — there’s so much you can learn! some examples:
* Fujifilm
* Hasselblad, using the VHPICTURES code
* Kodak, using the CAMEROSITY code
* Konica, using the MY BEST KONICA code
* Leica
* Polaroid SX-70
* Rollei 35
* Jeff reviews Ralph Bellamy a.k.a. Bellamy Hunt a.k.a. Japan Camera Hunter's new book Film Camera Zen. shots fired!! come at me, Ralph!
* and finally, we take a graceful swan-dive into our Prodigious Mailbag™
