Day 110: still a work in progress

Here is another shot from my test roll, still trying to diagnose what the issue is with the camera.

I looked across the top, and the back fits on correctly.

I think it might be the clip that holds the film into the camera; might need to glue it a little into place.

Day 109: I have a light leak

Went and picked up a roll of film I had left to get developed after work today.

Only a small light leak, but since it was the first time using this camera, I now know where to look to fix it.

Day 93: Sisters

The camera on the left is a Diana Mini; a new camera modeled after the camera on the right which is called a Diana.

I purchased the older Diana today at an Antiques store here in town, after a buddy of mine called to tell me they had some old cameras there for sale at reasonable prices.

I have loaded a roll of film into the Diana and plan on shooting with it tomorrow at the LBKtweetup Easter Bash, should be fun
