Self portrait with a new lens (Fujinon 210/5.6) picked out of a junk bargain bin – it works. Has a few scratches in front and a bit cloudy inside, nothing serious; also no retaining ring for mounting. Press shutters are so nice to work with! Taken with seriously outdated Fuji Instant FP100B45. Slightly curved up in PS. The old version of this lens covered 8×10 just about, this one’s image circle is supposed to be slightly too small (at least at infinity), although I have not tried it yet.

Very nice portrait Dirk. I also like how did you presented here slightly rotated, very nice.
So tell me how did you manage to stay in focus, check focus and release the shutter all this on your own 😉

Yes, what Richo asked. Good questions 🙂
Thanks. Actually not so difficult. Camera was quite close, perhaps 30-40cm. The shutter is self-cocking press shutter and the pre-focus onto another object measured with a string from the camera to myself marked with a knot for focus point… Easy 🙂
