Hidden Treasure

I just remembered how awesome being a library member actually is. I love the library down here, its very small but like they say its not quantity is quality? yes.
The benefits are endless though, as due to the wonderful internet i can request books from any West Sussex library. Aaaaamaazing. Yes im a mega geek.

Put down the bottle and pick up a book!

Anyway, Hi!
The reason im rambling about how awesome the library is, is because i recently rented the book photographed above. The camera maintenance and repair Book 1. and its incredible.

I am not even finished reading it, due to the fact i take forever to read any sort of books. I have wierd and wonderful ways of reading, this includes,

1. looking at all the pictures first
2. re-reading and re-reading pages
3. re-reading and looking at the pictures again.

Yeah i know its wierd and theres probably some label for it. but it works for me.

Im also dedicating space in my notebook to think about which cameras i will take apart and rebuild. I guess i want to understand the camera and be able to fix any problems that come up in the future and have a better connection with them too.

First off im going to fix my beloved Contax T2. If you ever get a chance to get one of these bad boys, i really advise you doing so. There were only a limited amount ever made and they are tough, believe me. I know mine is what some may say 'broken' but its not a bad kind of broken and i know can be fixed, i just wanted to fix it myself for a change.

But yeah these cameras are beautiful. One of my favorite from my collection still to this day.

Its a rather special point and shoot little camera that people raved about for a good few years, i believe it was the only kind at the time to be such an awesome p&s and has this lovely carl ziess lens just to top it all off. Im sure id find something to moan about but i just dont go down that road, i love my cameras each and every single one of them and find it hard to say bad things about them.



I thought i would post an image of the Contax T2. Just so you could all see what a beautiful little point and shoot it may be. I will be updating the 'fixing' process and photographing step by step. wahooo. im excited. life is pretty sweet huh?

Awesome camera. Buy one.
