crappiest camera and lens what did you do with it?
we all have them, im not talking the $10,000 ebony with a Schneider XXL ... but the opposite
a peeled Moroccan leather, rusty parts, leaky bellows (with peeling tape to fix the leaks ),
lenses that are scratched, separated, loose, moldy-barn-finds ...
you probably already know what I am talking about .. a real piece of junk .. what's yours? did you use it? (and secretly like the results)?

Great topic! For me it is a 1930’s era Kodak Duo 620. The one I got off of eBay was inexpensive but beat up and reeked of WD-40!in the shutter. Once it was aired out and the smell dissipated, it has become one of my most favorite user cameras. Not quite a piece of junk, though, and not LfF either.

I somehow inherited a Canon AE-1 with a nail through the prism. Obviously beyond repair, I decided to have some fun with it while doing a Zone System test.

I’ve got just the camera for you. Actually, all you need is one of my M42 lenses!

Yard sale wood camera. Incomplete, not able to rebuild at that time. I still have a box of parts that I used over the years for repairs, etc.
