Panoramic summer in the city
Again, last year was as busy as it gets, and then some more, I even had almost no will to take any of the cameras for a spin. So, naturally, I bought another camera! :D This time, I stumbled upon this panoramic plastic fantastic - Cypréa 2-way camera. It has literally fewer controls than Holga, with a fixed aperture, one shutter speed and no provision for focusing, and this panoramic mode is actually just a plastic baffle covering the top and bottom of a film, but hey, it's genuinely fun!
Here, I went to the city centre, to drop my film for development, this photo was taken just outside the studio.
Taken with "simple", plastic Cypréa 2-way camera, with its built-in 27mm F8 plastic lens, on a roll of AgfaPhoto APX 400 film. Developed in Adonal, 1+50 dilution, 21°C. Scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 8100 dedicated film scanner, using VueScan 9.5.
All frames were shot with "panoramic" baffles extended. I've cropped out the remnants of the frame, straightened it, and fixed the levels. Film latitude is an 11th-world wonder!
