Happy SUNday! Fun with Kodak

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

My fun to use Kodak EasyShare M893 IS 8.1MP digicam.

Kodak EasyShare M893 IS.
Kodak simple.
Altocumulus is in bands across the Northeast Florida sky.
Nice color, sharpness, and exposure. CCD sensor captures film-like images.
Christmas cactus, macro, handheld.
The Daikin is quiet and efficient. New as of September 2022.
My neighbor’s ground-level satellite dish.
It’s available in my camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com

Canon Motor Drive MF – for the original Canon F-1

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

When collecting classic Canon gear from the seventies, the Mother Drive MF is a desirable addition for the original Canon F-1 (after serial number 200000) – not the later Canon New F-1 (1981). I’ve added this beautiful motor drive in my camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com

It is in mint condition and is fully functional. Capable of shooting at up to 3.5 fps!
It is a beautiful example of extraordinary Canon design and engineering.
Shown here mounted to my F-1 and Servo EE finder. BTW, the finder is also available in my camera shop.

Canon ‘Super Set’

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

I’ve decided to part with some of the more important cameras in my collection and this set certainly qualifies.

None better… Canon F-1 ‘Super Set’. Canon F-1 body (1978), Canon FD 55mm f1.2 Chrome Nose lens (1972), Canon Motor Drive MF with Grip MF, and finally a Canon Servo EE Finder. Everything is part of my collection and everything is working as designed. A tribute to Canon’s designers and engineers.
I’ll be listing this set soon in my camera shop at www.ccstudio2380.com
