Backup Panda

I decided to get a mate for my Panda.  


The new one on the left came with no chips in the case, but it did have about a twenty-five-year accumulation of cigarette smoke residue.  Fortunately, I was able to clean things up fine with some lens cleaning fluid.  I doubt the original owner was so lucky.







I'm going to try this custom viewfinder hood the next time I get out with the Panda.  I'm thinking having two Panda will also let me load slow and fast film.  Given the latitude of modern films, I should be ready for about anything.

car show



I almost skipped the Cabezon Park car show this morning.  The world probably doesn't need more car show photos.  But, there was a nice, cloudy-bright sky to work with.  And, I had a new '50s plastic camera I needed to test.  So, there you are.







Tomorrow: the plastic camera.
