Some regular and glitchy photographs with the cheap Vivitar digital camera, 20 March 2023

I was out for a walk, so I took the Vivitar for some intentional camera movement and regular photography. 

Some ‘proper’ snapshots with the Glitchy 1€ camera, 19 March 2023

As well as deliberately trying to move the camera during exposure  I tried to take some ‘real’ photos too. It’s not easy to remember to hold the pose until the second beep.

Intentional Camera Movement with the Glitchy 1€ camera, 19 March 2023

Since learning about glitch art, it’s something I have really wanted to try. The snag is that most glitch art involves partial destruction or modification of answerable, which I am reluctant to try. Partly because I’m  not very good at soldering and, for the Gameboy especially, I really don’t have the nerve to destroy my

Testing an old 6MP digital camera I picked up for 3€, 14 March 2023

The CEX website is an excellent resource for cheap digicams from the dawn of the 21st century and occasionally they have some real bargains so I always keep an eye out.  Last week they were advertising a ‘generic 6MP camera’ for 3€.

Out with the 1€ #shittydigital camera, 26 October 2022

It’s #PolaroidWeek and I had one piece of Instax Monochrome loaded into my Polaroid 600. It seemed like a waste to go out and take just one photograph, so I thought I would take the little #shittydigital 2MP Vivitar camera I had picked up from CEX for 1€. The Vivitar 3695 is as simple as

Out with the Fujifilm XPS3 camera from the digital Outlet Box, 03 June 2022

I’ve been so wrapped up with taking digital infrared photographs with the converted Lumix DMC-TZ8 that the other cameras in the Outlet Box have been ignored.  There were a load of really nice cameras in the Outlet Box, so let’s take a look at some of the others. Today it’s time to flex the muscles

Going digital, another Kamerastore Outlet Box

Oops, I did it again! After my experience with the vintage camera Kamerastore outlet box that is (still) an ongoing project I was excited to find that they had released some more boxes. There were over 100 boxes of analogue and digital cameras, and although there were lots of film camera boxes that were appealing
