For what? A 4 minute video of walking around some industrial sites and a few B&W snapshots displayed in a manner which conveys not information about either the camera or the film. The 635 was a copy of Yashica's minimal, cheaply built TLR from the mid-1950s, bumped up with a 35mm film adapter which is practically useless. (Copying a Rolleiflex accessory which itself was useless.) For lenses it usually mounts a 3-element taking lens which give a negative which cannot produce a sharp print larger than 8x10 inches at most f-stops, and a few late in the run with the same Yahinon 4-element Tessar copy which Yashica thereafter mounted in all of its TLRs, itself testng as the worst 4-element TLR lens ever made. I bought a mint version of the earlier 635 with the full 35mm kit and case. I used it on one short trip. discovered that many of the photos I had spent considerable time and effort capturing where so unsharp as to not be worth printing. So I packed it up and resold it, breaking even on the camera but screwed on the weeklong trip.
I'll have to get back to Glasgow soon, there seems to be a lot of construction work going on, a city with a changing face, this happened to Dublin and we lost so many fine old buildings in a relative short space of time. Keep documenting these, and thanks.
Thanks man. I appreciate u taking the time to watch... i just got a little gimbal for my go pro so looking forward to shooting another video. If u come back over gimme a shout grab a pint or go shooting.
I'm looking forward to more of your videos, and yes, some shooting and a pint sounds great, I'll be planning a trip back over in the next couple of months, likewise if you ever want to shoot Dublin.
Thank you for this.
