The winner of the giveaway is…

 

Someone won this instamatic 33….

I know I’m late, but I had some stuff going on and wasn't able to blog. But no worries, I counted your tweets, wrote down names and put them in the hat again… I was thinking, I want to do more giveaways in the future, but picking a winner like this is not working for me if there are like 30 people entering. Does anybody have a good tip on how to make it simple picking a winner? It’s just so messy when I do it like this. Writing down all the names and then writing down the name again if they have tweeted. Anyone? Help?

So….. Who is the winner of this giveaway?

Analogue #5–The Praktica TL-1000—GIVEAWAY?!

 

 

 

It’s time for a new analogue camera to show you guys! This time it’s the Praktica TL-1000. This camera is not that old. It started producing in 1980 and stopped producing in 1984. This is a beautiful camera to look at! Real eye candy. Though, I found it disappointing the black grip is made of plastic. The whole camera feels a bit like a toy camera because of that plastic.

I Do love the simplicity of the camera. It has just a few settings, but is able to make some pretty good pictures. (for what I have seen, I haven’t got the pictures back from development). I have been looking for lenses for this camera in thrift shops. A good plus for this camera. There are loads of lenses in thrift shops everywhere!

Tip: If you want to buy lenses, bring your camera with you, and fit them on your camera body. Do not buy them without fitting. Secondly, never forget to check if there are scratches on the lens. If there are scratches, just use the same method which I had told you guys in my post about how to buy the right vintage camera. FIRST ask how much it costs, THEN tell the owner it’s broken. You’ll end up paying a lot less.  Why buy a lens with scratches? well, if you got yourself one for a small price (I would give 1,50 euro’s for a broken lens)  You can take pictures with them, you’ll get some cool effects. Here is a picture taken with a scratched lens (there is some dust on there too)

One other thing.

I was having a good idea about something. I was thinking about a giveaway when I hit 50 followers (only for the followers on glipho). As soon as I hit that 50, I will write a post about a really cute camera. If you would like to win it (free for everybody, I will send it to you and I will pay the shipping costs) you have to comment on that post, and you have to be following me. Good idea for al those who love vintage thrift shop junk! (More information about this giveaway in the actual giveaway post)

So what do you think?
