i bought two old cameras from this antique shop about a year and a half ago. i never really planned on doing much with them, other than looking at them intently. however, i found myself inspecting my Voigtlander Vito CL ([link]) and wondering if it would hold some 35 mm film. without really looking up whether it was even 35 mm, i bought some black and white film and popped it in there. and it fits and works alright!

the real challenge now will be to see if it actually works. it's kind of beat up. i believe the inner lens (?) (i need to learn more about cameras) is cracked, but otherwise, it seems to be working fine. i hope these pictures develop well and turn out crazy awesome. chances are that they won't even develop, but who know! maybe i'll have a new 1960's camera, ready and rearing to go.
