kiev 60

Despite my recent protestations at the size of most medium format gear (I began to resent carrying a "camera bag" for my DSLR over the last year or so, and a little rangefinder was just the solution to the problem), I found myself responding in something close to a heartbeat when a fellow Flickrnaut decided to sell off his Kiev 60.

So for the time being I've worked out I can fit the Kiev and the Bessa R4a into my old DSLR camera bag, along with my old light meter and a few rolls of film for each. Mind you, I shot through 3 rolls in the Kiev before 9am the other morning, so next time I'll be squeezing more in.

[ see the rest of my photos taken with the Kiev 60, so far. ]

I may not (so far) run the kind of blog that posts social conscience linkage - other friends seem to have it covered better than I could manage (yes, I'm aware that's no excuse), but this doesn't mean that I don't care about the State of Things^TM.
