Just playing

Unfortunately my Lomo DIY Sutton card board camera, which I received from my children 2yrs ago as a present, broke already at frame 6 (from 12). I did not finish the repair as most of the card board joints broke during the "de-assembling" process. Only a couple of days ago I realised that the lens had a M 39 mount. So it fitted on the Zorki but I did not try it out as I was not sure what finally will appear on the frame. So I mounted it on my digital Pen F with a M39/Micro 4/3 converter. It took me some time to get something visible out of the lens (or on the sensor) - only with a home made aperture plate with a punched hole of approx. 1mm I finally managed (note - there is no distance change possible!). Nothing of breathtaking beauty - but I like to play!
