I Dream of Cameras

Episode 40 • This Is 40

A signal show in which we finally step out of the shadow of Sunny 16 Presents and get our own podcast feed! Now you can search for I Dream of Cameras wherever you pluck your podcasts. In addition, we empty the mailbag at light speed, discuss Gabe’s preparations to shoot New York Fashion Week, talk of recent impulse buys, compare the Widelux and the XPan, carp at absurd public photography restrictions, muse upon the mystery of camera serial numbers, praise the babyish plastic developing reels, and reflect on what if anything we have learned after 40 episodes.

thanks to the lords of Sunny 16, we now have our own podcast feed!

a lightning round to empty our prodigious mailbag - limit one sentence per email!

Gabe’s about to leave for New York Fashion Week - here's the final list of cameras he's bringing: Leica Q Canon R5 Leica M10 Widelux F7 Rolleiflex 2.8F Yashica T4

Gabe's kit for a portrait shoot with Kal Penn: the R5, the Q and the M10

to fund Gabe’s recent impulse buy of the Canon R5, he actually sold some stuff: a Contax T2 to Eoin Macken and a bunch of other gear (Hasselblad 503cx, Minolta Autocord, Leica R6.2) to our friends at LA Film Camera

on the same trip, Jeff failed to unload a mint-in-box 90mm f2 Summicron ASPH with caps, case and original papers - any takers?

Jeff’s about to make another trip to Atlanta and KEH — last time, he looked at a ton of cool stuff (thanks Sam) and came away with a 35mm Nikkor for his SP rangefinder

this time he has his eye on a 35mm f2.8 PC-Nikkor tilt-shift lens to use with the XPan

Jeff’s recent impulse buy: a Konica Acom-1 a.k.a. Autoreflex TC - what is “automatic” exposure, and why do we judge those who use it?

the difference between shooting the Widelux (serendipitous) and the XPan (deliberate)

no cameras allowed at the Malibu Chili Cookoff, and no cameras on tripods in LA's public parks! wtf?

serial numbers - do you find them interesting? Jeff sure does!

Jeff used the Paterson System 4 with its babyish plastic developing reels.. and he loved it!

forty episodes in, what have we learned?
