The more I find myself being absorbed into photography, the more I find myself lusting after weird cameras. Take this Yashica D camera I spotted at Pitchfork. This model was released in 1966 and uses 120 film. Note the “spaghetti western” style font between the two lenses that was popular during the 1960s. The viewfinder is located inside the camera so you have to peer down into the body. I would love to have one of these to just play around with.
The girl who was carrying it told me she bought it on KEH.com, which just so happens to be the place where I purchased my new Canon EOS 1-D camera body.
Even though I’ve already been photographing AllSaints authentically found out on the street (see this photo of Becky), the company decided to set me loose with an iTouch to document street-style in line with the AllSaints aesthetic. Me being a professional photographer thought that was kind of silly, so I alternated between my trusty Olympus PEN and my brand new (to me) Canon EOS 1D.
