UJC Podcast #13: I Leica My Zorki!

Spring is here! Time for the Shutter Brothers to load some Ektachrome and capture all the colors of the season. So Kelley and Kevin Lane decided to put their thoughts about spring-appropriate film and cameras into show #13 of the Uncle Jonesy's Cameras Podcast, and you are invited to join in the fun! First, Kevin talks about his adventures with his Zorki 1c, which is a Soviet-made copy of a Leica ii and what he plans to do about the problem of shutter curtain pinhole light leaks. Also, Kevin has just acquired a light box for viewing his negatives, the Zecti A4 LED Light Box. It's a very thin tablet-like USB-powered light table perfect for using the FilmLab app to make quick negative scans.

Next, Kelley talks about a really cool SLR, the Yashica FX-3 Super 2000, which would be the perfect student camera - if you can get one for a good price. The copy Kelley reviews was donated to be used by the fledgling camera club that Kevin is building at the elementary school where he teaches. And speaking of school, Kevin and his wife, Debbie, are celebrating spring break with a trip to one of their favorite cities, Savannah, Georgia. But first, Kevin must decide what cameras and which film to take. Kelley gives him some advice, but he would really love to get some words of listeners from our listeners.

With spring comes March madness, spring training, and graduation. Commencement ceremonies will be held everywhere in just a few weeks, so Kelley leads a discussion on how to capture graduation memories on film or digital. Finally, the Bros answer a listener question about bulk loading film.
