Kodak Ektra 100 Camera 相機

2013/2/28

My first camera: Kodak Ektra 100 Camera (Made in Germany).

After 30 years, I pressed the shutter button again, and the feeling is hard to describe.

After entering the 20th century, 110 film was gradually discontinued. Two years ago, I bought 3 rolls of expired FUJICOLOR SuperG from 2011/12 on eBay, which have been stored in the refrigerator as a collection. It wasn't until recently that I saw LOMO starting to produce 110 black and white films and positive films again, that I decided to load this roll of film and bring the Kodak Ektra 100 Camera back to life.

The size of the 110 film is 17mm x 13mm, and the diagonal, which is the focal length of the standard lens, should be about 21.4mm. The lens of this camera is Kodar 22mm (aperture not specified), considered average. In fact, the current popular Panasonic and Olympus 43 series camera sensors are almost equivalent to the size of 110 films. 我的第一台相機:Kodak Ektra 100 相機 (Made in Germany)。

相隔30年後,我再次按下快門,這種感覺難以形容。

進入20世紀後,110底片陸續停產,2年前在eBay上買了3捲 2011/12到期的FUJICOLOR SuperG,就一直放在冰箱中珍藏。直到最近看到 LOMO又開始生產110黑白底片和正片,才下定決心裝上這捲底片,讓這台Kodak Ektra 100相機重出江湖。

110底片的大小是 17mm x 13mm,對角線也就是標準鏡頭的焦距應該是 21.4mm。這台相機的鏡頭是 Kodar 22mm (光圈未標示),算是中規中矩。其實目前流行的 Panasonic、Olympus 43系列相機的感光元件大小,也幾乎是等於110底片大小。

Canon 70-200/4 L USM @ Apricot Flower Forest Farm 杏花林

2013.2.14

The 9-day Lunar New Year holiday is already in its second half, and Taipei is enjoying rare sunny weather, perfect for a spring outing and flower appreciation. The news mentioned that Yangmingshan is crowded with visitors during the flower season, so we opted for the less crowded Maokong. The Apricot Flower Forest Farm is located on Lane 45 of Laocun Street in Maokong. On a small hillside, it is adorned with red and white apricot blossoms and a few blooming cherry blossom trees. The farm is not large, and it took about an hour to explore while enjoying the blossoms. There are nearby farmhouses where you can enjoy tea or a simple meal. Today's menu included braised pork with radishes and radish soup, bringing good luck for the new year :)

春節9天年假已進入後半段了,台北難得出太陽,是個踏青賞花的好天氣。電視新聞上說陽明山花季人潮眾多,所以我們往人潮相對較少的貓空走。杏花林農場在貓空老泉街45巷,一個小山坡除了種滿紅白兩色的杏花外,也點綴幾株盛開的櫻花樹。農場範圍不大,邊拍邊看也花了1個小時,旁邊有農舍可以泡茶或享用簡餐。今天的菜色是蘿蔔燉肉和蘿蔔湯,真是新春好彩頭 : )
