Camera: Reflex-Korelle, with a Zodiak-8 fisheye lens.
Cropped by shutter malfunction. The additional complication is that the shutter speed (I had it on nominal 1/500s) was also sort of fluctuating randomly between 1/100s and 1/1000s. But I’ll have to pull the shutter curtains now anyway, the leading edges got mangled and they neither open nor close properly anymore. It’s the only part of this camera that I haven’t touched yet. Well that and the self-timer, but that works. Reliably even. It’s something.
I’ve also learned that shooting a fisheye lens against the sun is not a great idea if you’re into things like “a basic amount of contrast” or “being able to see the subject”. Well well, it’s all a process. 🙂
