Ge0rG<p>Over the weekend, the living room went offline. Looks like the 12V/2A PSU found a faster way for the current than through the router.</p><p>Luckily, the home didn't burn down and the only fatality is the barrel plug (which used to be a straight and not a 90° variety). Both the router and the PSU have survived.</p><p>(also the Soviet Industar-61 L/Z 50mm lens is decent enough for close-ups)</p><p><a href="https://chaos.social/tags/CrappyCommieCameraChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CrappyCommieCameraChallenge</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/ShittyCameraChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ShittyCameraChallenge</span></a></p>
Trenton Hoshiko | Filmmaker<p>I saw someone use the DC290 on <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ShittyCameraChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ShittyCameraChallenge</span></a> and picked one up because I thought it looked cool. The utter lack of control is kinda hard to get used to/trick into doing what you want, but it takes a mean photo when you get things right.</p>

Keith Devereux<p>It's the Crappy Commie Camera Party over on BlueSky, so people are posting images from their Soviet-era cameras and lenses. I joined in with the Chaika II half-frame camera and expired (c.2004) Konica VX-100 colour film. It was my last roll, but it came out a treat. <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/CrappyCommieCameraParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CrappyCommieCameraParty</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/ShittyCameraChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ShittyCameraChallenge</span></a></p>

@f_dion one TikTok I watched on it just said it was overall quite soft.

This is reminding me, I meant to get my inherited lenses and cameras back from the relative I lent them to. June is #shittycamerachallenge month, and I got a bunch of midcentury East German and Japanese cameras of dubious functionality.
