Last week I bought a new vintage camera Lubitel 166 universal, a soviet camera manufactured in 1991. The condition is A+ I was very impressed even the original box was in a good condition.

Today I found this picture from some old Russian book. There are 6 pictures of how you can use your lubitel medium format camera. This reminds me of some soviet spy manual especially the 6th photo.

How to use a Lubitel camera

Some days ago a bought another old camera and it was Lubitel 166 universal, original soviet camera, was manufactured in 1991. Soon I’ll post a review about this camera but now I want to share the original manual.

Take a look at this amazing video, all steps of creating a macworld magazine cover (except printing). First the photographers do their job by setting up light and using a full frame camera to capture 2 iPhones 3Gs. After that the image goes to retouching, where the retouching man adds the display images. Then the retouched image goes to the cover designer, who makes the finale magazine cover in Adobe InDesign. And after all that you can see the final printed magazine.

Not long time ago I bought a Smena 8m soviet 35mm film camera. It was quite popular in the 70s. So I tested it with 2 films:

• Ilford FP4 PLUS 125 (B&W)
• KODAK 200 (COLOUR)

I developed the B&W film my self and colour KODAK film was developed in the lab, I really like the b&w film and further I think I’ll buy only that kind of film. So let’s look at the test shots.
