June 14, 2022I Dream of Cameras #34 Call Mr. Lee
The jewel of this episode is our interview with Trev Lee, an excellent photographer and the social media voice of The Darkroom lab in San Clemente. But first!
Oskar Barnack’s 1923 0-series Leica sold at auction for $12 million
Gabe sold two Bronicas at LA Film Camera in Studio City
the return of The Thingy, a adapter which lets you replace the obsolete PX675 mercury battery with a cheap 675 zinc-air hearing-aid battery
how many cameras do you have loaded simultaneously?
an abbreviated mailbag!
our interview with Trev Lee:
trading his beloved Leica M5 for a Rolleiflex TLR from Gabe’s collection
which of his 20 cameras does he bring on a shoot?
the allure of the Nikon FM3a - how did he acquire one, how did it vault to the top of his list, and why is it so great?
black vs. chrome cameras
his favorite lens for the Nikon: the 40mm Voigtlander Ultron
the rest of his Nikon lens arsenal are all by Voigtländer! the 28mm Skopar, the 58mm Nokton, and the 90mm APO-Lanthar
are rising costs changing the hobby?
the Canon Rebel and Elan as good affordable starter cameras
are people printing more? what’s the value of a print?
and furthermore, what’s the emotional component of photography for him?
does working at a photography business siphon off some of the joy? how do you balance the demands of the job with your personal work?
the culture of The Darkroom, their dedication to customer service and his role as their social media manager

May 16, 2022I Dream of Cameras #32 We Gotcha Covid
Happy birthday to our patient patron Graeme!
Gabe’s COVID ordeal
A magical mailbag!
Gabe’s recent shooting adventures: a daylong shoot with actor Brenton Thwaites, and Retta’s pink party
Jeff’s been a-travelin’, so let’s talk about the travel-camera conundrum. His favorite is the Olympus XA4 Macro — what's yours?
Visits to two great camera shops: Unique Photo in Philadelphia and B&H in New York
In a stunning development, Gabe got a half-frame camera, a Canon Sure Shot Multi Tele — how does half a cookie taste?
copy stands are insanely expensive, so after much searching Jeff found a Durst F30 on Craigslist — it's the enlarger he learned on, and now the world’s cheapest copy stand
We regret to inform you that Polaroid is at it again, with wildly overpriced Saint Laurent cameras and film — damn you!!
Clare Marie Bailey gave Jeff a print of her exquisite photo “Memories of Summer” - print and hang your stuff, swap with other photographers, physical media is nice!
Looking for an inexpensive way to shoot Nikon glass? Don’t sleep on the Nikonos!

April 22, 2022I Dream of Cameras #31 Sissi Lu Who
The centerpiece of this episode is an extended interview with film photographer Sissi Lu, known to denizens of New York City as the Lady with the Hassy. She’s a street shooter and a portraitist and a TikTokker and a YouTuber, and her passion for photography is infectious. It’s one of our best conversations yet, so TOON IN! But first…
A manageable mailbag!
Marie Nikondo is RUTHLESS! Check out our Instagram for some cameras Gabe is offloading, and feel free to DM him and float a trade!
and then, our conversation with Sissi Lu, featuring
strategies for street photography
the allure of the Hasselblad (and how it’s different than shooting a 35mm SLR like her Nikon F3)
building a community of like-minded shooters
forging a connection with your subjects
the challenge of leaving the house with only two or three cameras
designing the ideal camera bag
using the self-timer (yes, she uses it)
favorite film stocks (spoiler: she loves Lomo 800) and her second favorite New York film lab (picturehouse + thesmalldarkroom in Chelsea)
Sissi Lu’s website, Instagram, TikTok, and her UNDER DVLP channel on YouTube
