Thanks Darren. The 6x7 post made it to the web archive and the digest,
but it was around the time someone else mentioned a lot of emails
weren't getting to them, so I think it may not have made it out to the
rest of the PDML. Anyway, here it is:

Thanks Steve. I'm not so sure about the background, either, but I
liked it enough at the time. Or, if you meant the background as to why
I'm doing this, well, it's mostly just for fun. I seem to be in a very
creative state of mind lately, and I've been thinking about doing a
project like this for a while. Thanks for offering to shoot your
ZX-5n, but I've actually got one of those (it's my only remaining 35mm
camera), Unfortunately, it's just different enough from the ZX-30 that
I can't use it. :(

Incidentally, I decided last night to make illustrations of the *istD,
K10D and K-5, too. I sold my *istD ages ago, but I still have the
K10D. I fired it up this morning for the first time in years to take
photos of my K-5. It was like shaking hands with an old friend. :)

If you have the K10D's automatic dust removal turned on, the handshake
is quite firm.

yes, that's what i meant, trying to understand your project; i liked the 
background, like an abstracted iris

i don't know what the stock lenses were but i have an F 28-80 and an F 70-210

That was probably me. I remember seeing the 6x7 post, because it came
sort of near the end of the thread about trying to make a PDML logo
from with the old AOCo pentaprism logo.

Plus all of the missing posts had made it out to PDML, it was just for
some reason random PDML messages coming to my address were being
classified as junk by Yahoo.

Another camera illustration: MX with 40mm

2013-08-21 Thread John Celio
Similar to the 6x7 illustration I posted last week, here's one of the
MX with the classic 40mm pancake lens on it:

Next one is an Auto 110, followed by my first film camera, the ZX-30.

you seem to be doing a serious design process here - not sure i caught the 
background, but it's definitely intriguing and thoughtful; if you are still
