Great seascape Nana. I've always wanted to ask- Do you visually focus your camera or does it have a fixed focus preset?

That is fantastic Nana! Even the rocks are dynamic-a really 'alive' picture.

Thanks, Austin

Thanks, Nicolas.

I made this camera to be a quick setup. I shoot a lot during winter, with big waves and strong winds, so, many times I have to run fast to escape from waves.

This camera has a ground glass but it also has as an external viewfinder wich I adapted to the camera. Focus is fixed at the hiperfocal distande of f8, so, at f22, I have all in focus from 90cm (3 feet) to infinity. Usually, I do light metering with a spotmeter in a secure place, I put filters (if required) on camera, fix aperture, shutter speed, put a film holder and go to the spot I want, compose with external viewfinder, shoot and run. This camera is fantastic for my seascape work.

Very impressive shots, but noisy and "digital" scans.
