That girl with the Contax again…

She had a Contax camera with a custom cover. And she took our photos. Also, she’s kind of attractive. Thus: Photo.

Photoset

Voigtlander Prominent with Ultron 50/2 lens.

Seen in Busan today. A very fine lens, similar in construction to a Colour Skopar. Interchangeable with a small bayonet mount. The camera is interesting. Focusing is by rotating the outer circumference of the rewind knob. Rangefinder seemed accurate and was easy to use.

Two Konicas: a Konica 35 rangefinder and a Konilette pocket folder. 

The latter uses 828 film, which is a non-perforated 35mm roll film.

A Canadian veteran of the Korean War at the UN War Cemetery in Busan, with a Yashica SLR. 

It was pouring rain and I managed a quick iPhone shot but it didn’t turn out well. I also took a film shot. Maybe it will be better.
