2nd hand stuff
I never really bought any 2nd hand stuff
especially for camera/electronics... feel like these things are too fragile
and u buy 2nd hand, u just waste $ most probably...
unless it's really cheap...
last time i bought 2nd hand stuff is the mini p3 desktop core
got that for $1000 and I brought that with me to canada for my study...
yeah I was too poor to get a laptop that time
after Gloria got me a holga
I started to get into films camera
It's all fun, though I havent took anything good
well I am a newbie :p
I am interested in Lomo LC-a so I decided to get one
But I wanna get an old LC-a ...
coz I hate the silly logo on the new one
so I bidded one for $1100
finally the parcel came to my office today
It came in good condition, everything seems working fine
I really obey to the Lomo rule - dun think just shot, and killes 36 frames for quick testing of this new member :)
will see the result tomoro.
but that's not what I wanna say
i wanna say... it is a USSR product made in 1989...
a 18 years old camera...
what did it experienced ? too bad all films worked with it were gone ...
I wanna know who was his old master, what stories he went through with them ...
may be 1 of his master is a communist, well most probably
he has a family of 4 in ukarine
working hard for the community
he bought this lc-a out with his family on their family day
took picture of them
but life's hard...
he might have been in crime for any reasons and so this lc-a went to some other people's hand ... what this guy / gal was.. what their stories were...
it's weird that i wanna know such things ...
but it's all about human, all about life, and all about their stories ...
how should i tell the next master of this lc-a my story?
or will he ever care about it ?
at all ?

cool! finally u've got ur "dream camera" :P
it's great 2 hear tht my holga got u into SLR
i guess, the more u're into sth,
the more u want 2 kno abt it.
the stories behind u baby, it's a myth
it'll lead u to a endless fantasy...
n tht's the beauty of vintage!
anyway, hope u'll enjoy it
n start 2 create a new story wif this baby ;D
yeah gloria lca is fun... u have to look, have to think, estimate distance before every shot... else u wasted 1 frame of film... that's no good ar. will get baack to holga soon... coz holga is kinda hard to operate (when u dun want to get something random)
