Occupational therapy: putting a Helios 44M-4 58mm f/2 lens on a Yashica FX-3 body. The tape was applied to prevent light leaks. No infinity yet, but that will be the next step. Non-branded ISO400 film, expiration date unknown. The burn marks are a Murphy's Law thing, some issue during developing, but the shots did turn out interesting enough to post.

Utacar f8/50 lens (Anny 44) on a Canon EOS 1200D


There's not a whole lot of information to be found on the web about the Anny 44. The Utacar f8/50 lens was also used in bigger sisters Anny 35 and Anny 35 Super De Luxe.

Camerapedia says:
The Anny 44 (アニー44) is an inexpensive Japanese camera taking 4×4cm pictures on 127 film, made by Hōei from 1960.

Some initial results of using the Utacar f8/50 on a Canon DSLR:


These shots have a distinct plastic feel. No idea of the history of the original camera, this may have been stored in some attic for the last 40 years. The plastic fixed-focus lens is somewhat blurred.

More occupational therapy.

Agfa Clack lens on a Canon Eos 1200D


Agfa Clack lenses can easily be removed from the body with a small screwdriver. I used a M42 adapter and experimented with various spacer rings to get the lens in the right position on the Canon body. With a small screw in the cable release opening, the shutter can be fixed in open position.

Some initial results:

More occupational therapy.
