#1 Camera Modification

My first attempt at a Camera modification . Bought a cheap 35mm camera , attached fishing wire so I can re-set the shutter trigger without winding the camera/ film on a bit like a Lomography camera

Needs a bit more work to stop the shutter sticking , ( if you look closely you can see the wiring where the metal shutter creates a circuit that sets off the flash.......

I used a Rambo knife to drill a hole in the side for the fish wire . I will be posting results when I have used a reel of film . This camera really is a heap of junk so I will probably have to tape everything up to stop light creeping in

1930's Coronet camera bought for £1 from a car boot sale

Enlarged view through viewfinder you should be able to make out the window

I hope this bad boy works because I have already have several rolls of film on order for it  ( the film costing wayyy more than the camera ) . If and when I can afford to get the film processed I will post the results


The shutter still works will just need to clean it up a little but that's what you can expect from a camera that was made before the 2nd world war 

Update couple of pics I have taken with the camera and home developed

So the camera does work but It is quite a struggle to keep it still and operate the shutter mechanism ( especially on a windy beach)
