Some days ago, I bought a vintage box camera, a Kodak Brownie n. 2, manufactured between 1928-1935 as a camera for children. It's very simple to use, like a more recent Kodak Instamatic or an Holga. This is my first impression about this camera. For the film, I used a Lomography Earl Grey 120 film roll.

“The splendor of Yosemite burst upon us and it was glorious.” These were the immortal words that Ansel Adams wrote when he first visited Yosemite in 1916.

Look what we found! Converting cameras into lights, that help avoiding bumps in the dark, is such a bright idea! These luminous, re-purposed, devices are all from the 50s or 60s. For a better look (careful not to blind yourself) read on after the jump!

Looking through the review articles I was surprised to find nobody has done a review of the Kodak Brownie 127 model, particularly as it lends itself so well to taking 35mm film.

Browsing online for a source of 127 film to feed Bilora Bella and Kodak Brownie, my father and mother's teenage cameras respectively. What do I find? A blog explaining how to easily convert the Brownie to accept 35mm film. "I have to give this a go!" I thought.

If GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) is a problem of yours as it is mine, then you must spend a lot of time on the lomography store website or ebay just looking and lusting after cameras. This beautiful, medium format, box camera caught my eye on ebay. It looked so cute and interesting and was selling for just $10. I couldn't help myself and the rest as they say is history.

It all started with an old photo from my family's past. Now, I'm in a hot pursuit of Lomographic adaptations to meet the challenges of a new environment!
