nikon d5000
28-135mm aspherical
85mm af nikkor
digital
my big baby. very heavy, kinda hard to use with no autofocus because of the lenses that i use.
i have her since like 2019, her piqué is very distinctive and part of my personal style.
might have to buy a fixed 55mm focal at some point tho.
minolta xg9
50mm lense
35mm
bought it in like 2022 or 2023, just before a long roadtrip from italy to türkiye
i am not careful with my gears and i asked for a sturdy camera. the battery cover is damaged and i need to change it before it leaks and damages the whole thing.
i also need another lense. this one is great but kinda limited in the end.
redmi note 10 pro
digital
my smartphone since almost three years now. it's just good, nothing more to say.
silvercrest full hd
1920x1080
digital
idk why but i just love this camera. it's small so i can have it with me at all time and the quality is good enough.
i can just say it's an artistic choice. what can i say, i just like it ok? i feel better with a camera by my side.
kodak brownie no2
120mm
it was gifted to me years ago by an old lesbian photographer when i was very depressed. i promised her i will try to get better and then i came out and transitioned and now everything is bright and colorful.
it's not a great camera and 120mm films are expensive but i'd love to use is more in the future.
olympus af-1 twin
35mm point and shoot
a very dear friend gave it to me because it was part of his heritage and he doesn't give a fuck about photography.
it's been my most used analogue camera for like three or four year but it's broken now i think.
point and shoot camera are very fun to use but the pics aren't great most of the time. still useful.
1999 tiger electronics
pokemon pikachu camera
35mm point and shoot
bought it in 2020 if i remember correctly?
never used it because films are expensive and i don't have enough money to waste it on a camera i'm not even sure works.
i should clean it and give it a try. there's a very cute pokemon frame inside but it looks damaged.
lomography diana mini
35mm
let me state that loud and clear : lomography sucks ass. bought it in 2018, used it like two times and it broke.
it's just a gimick camera and not even a fun one. it's all plastic, pics are ugly, it's too expensive. i just hate it.
the only reason i could give lomography a second try would be with one of their color films but even that feel so gimicky.
it just feels like the commodification of diy. i just don't get it. you can do something bad and ugly with a regular camera that will last years. trust me.
agfaphoto realikids
instant thermal cam
my last acquisition, for my 26th birthday!
i love it! it's sooooo bad it's hilarious. you can't see it here but it's also very pink, very girlypop.
i know thermal prints are starting to make appearance in the mainstream art scene because it looks "soooooo underground" but it's mostly funny. because it's bad. at least this one is.
it also works with used tickets and that's great. idk if it can print texts tho, didn't try because i don't have a memory card for it.
