My favourite camera is one I built about 18 months ago using mdf painted
silver with metal handles on either side. On a slender tripod it looks like
a square friendly version of sputnik. On a heavy tripod way above
everyone's heads it looks like a menacing, sinister eye surverying all
below.
I have taken most of my pictures using it with paper negatives which are
about 17cm square. It has an f stop of around several hundreds, but then
who is counting.
This is a self portrait I took with it a few months ago using a triple
exposure! I did it intuitively without too much calculating:
