Also, I think today is Appreciate a Dragon Day, right? So have a bonus dragon UwU Quick holiday card that I made for @percytechnic.bsky.social to send out during December <3

Man. I wanna find an Olivetti Lettera 22, 32, or Studio 42 so bad.

Got given this one by a store in town. Gave it a clean up and it looks decent for how well used it is. It's from 1927.

Nyama taking some macro photography shots of a micro friend. Colors by me. DNE did the lines.

Friend of mine made a super cuuute 3d print for me. Gonna have it sit on top of my cameras :3

Brought this 1970's Royal Cavalier/1000 back to life. Only needed a $2.50 o-ring.

Took this on my Sony Mavica FD97

Either of the Dark Cloud games. Maybe make missing photograph less of a thing though. Heck if I could just buy it on steam just a few quality of life changes, and just a general graphics update I'd be happy because I legit cannot find any other games that came close to how these two felt to play.

Found this pretty good condition Underwood Universal from 1936 at a local place. Cleaned it up a bit and tightened some things up on it. Just need to fix the shift lock not holding when typing, one dent I wanna get out of the case, and get new feet for it. Other than that it works great!

Forgot I had some film left in my camera from months back. Came out pretty good still IMO.

I wonder if I should make an alt account for my NSFW art content and sharing art I like.

While I lack any way to do film dev rn. I can at least use this for a baking reminder since my oven's timer is weak sauce vs this buzzy boi.

As much as a finger risk these fellas can be. I love them. Found this one for $5 at a thrift shop. Needed it's blades bent back into shape. Got rid of 99% of the vibration it had, oiled and reapplied some grease. No more old motor smell and runs great. Wish it had a on/off switch though.

If you see this then I implore you to post an image from your device without context.

Shoot. My Bsky illiteracy has gotten to me. idk how to quote post.

My latest piece, its Nyama the frost dragon. A friend! I did a trade with them for a VRC model~ One of the few times when I think silver serves best. 91 Pieces 10x13.5" 11.5 Hours.

Some birds I saw today in town. Taken on my 2001 Sony Mavica FD97

For a camera from 2001 that uses floppy disks as a storage medium and is beat up a bit. I'm amazed how ok this pic turned out.

Got this fella working recently. Though the sensor is possibly gunked up in a couple spots and I'm going to have to try to clean it later once I get the kit for it.

I'm surprised how a 21 year old DSLR still takes such good pics. Yea the sensor gets upset if I do long exposures but otherwise it does good. The lower DR can make some shots look a bit off but I can work with that just fine :).

Some shots I've taken during the Summer with my Instax Wide 300.

Took out a pack of 600 film yesterday to fool with. Got some interesting results.

More trees I found in my area. Taken on a Instax Mini 9.

Some pics I took yesterday to test out a Mini 9. I do wish the film had a touch more DR to work with but at the same time I think this played well with the dark border style.

Rebel SL2 18-55mm f/4 at ISO 1600. I went out in a T-shirt in 38F for this, lol.

Messed around a bit more with the SQ6.

This one came out wonderfully.

Tried out an SQ6 as well. Though I had the wrong focus setting on so the backgrounds for two of them are a bit blurred. Still decent though.

Tried out the Instax Wide 300. Works pretty good. Wish it had a few more features but it works well enough as is.

Some expired Polaroid shots I took a few days back on my Now+

These two honestly are my faves from the 8 shots I took today.

Finally took some black and white pics on my SX-70. Waited for the winter to do it. Def need to get some more though BUT as it sits I'll have to wait for Polaroid to restock SX-70 film.

Now that some snow finally fell. Maybe I can get some nice winter time B&W polaroid shots in. Granted the film doesn't suffer from contrast loss from the bitter cold temps. 😅

Took this on my DSLR a couple nights back. 500mm, 100 iso

Just a single pic this time from my Impulse AF. Not much snow fallen yet but the blueish tones gives a hint to the cold temps of this time of year.

Taken on my Canon SL2 on my 40mm for like 30 seconds.

No film used for these shots. The plain star pic I should have done stacking. But for a first try with just a single image I'm still happy with how it turned out. Same with the rest to be honest.

Temp gauge? Nah, no need. My green tinted Polaroids tell me it's 50F outside.

Such an odd but wonderful instant camera.

Tested out this cam today. Seems to work wonderfully. The slower speed film definitely makes it struggle somewhat in heavily overcast lighting like it was today as all these shots asked for a tripod to be used. But even with free handing they came out good I feel.

Took some pictures on my Polaroid Go. But I think I got a bad batch. Gonna wait to test the other pack before I bring it up to Polaroid just to be sure it's not a roller issue or something else.

Non-film photos this time. Took these on a Sony Mavica FD-92 1.6MP Floppy Disk camera. Which for it's time took wonderful pics I feel and even now looks alright besides it's small size.

Took some pics today on my Now+. A bit tricky of a camera to use due to the metering being funky on it. But still I got some nice pics out of it I think.

Took some more pics in town with the Sun 660.

Ended up with another Polaroid camera and decided to test it out. The Sun 660 Autofocus. Has a few features I wish the Impulse AF had. All around a fun camera. Has decently crisp photos for a box style Polaroid camera.

Instax film has a look I find interesting in some cases. The cheapness of the film is a big plus but the most basic of Fuji Instax cameras, ie the 7s, is a hard turn off for using the format due to how often a mess up can happen due to limited controls and a fixed shutter speed.

Now I do love using my SX-70 due to it's much higher clarity and manual focusing. But the Impulse AF is still a funky lil fella and is rather fun to mess around with every now and then.

Figure I may as well make my first post on here. Have few of my fave pics I've taken with my SX-70 Alpha 1 Model 2 along with a pic of the cam itself.
