A few I took at a "Free Tony Lewis" rally here in D.C. at Black Lives Matter Plaza.
First time using the Canon RP and the 24-240 RF lens and I really like the versatility it offered so much that I may end up buying that combo.

Top Shotta, None Hotta!
Couple things from some walks
Late pass as hell, finally retired my Photoshop CS6 and moved to CC, feels like I got new car after catching the bus for so long. The changes to Content Aware Fill alone is worth it.
About to order a few couple anamorphic lenses to take the videos to the next level.

Still waiting to purchase my z6ii, in the meantime been using this over the city. The mini 2 doesn’t really get good night footage.

DOPAMINE FOR MY BABY!!
Finally got my hands on a Spotmatic.
I know SLR camera bodies aren't a big deal, but I've been laser focused on getting one of these. The Canon AE-1 or Pentax K1000 are the hot buys (I don't really see either them in good condition for under $100) but these can be had for a little bit cheaper, or in my case, a helluva lot cheaper.
Winning bid came in at $14.
Bought through the good will bidding site, and came along with an old, dirty leather case, 3 lenses, and a flash unit.
Of the lens, I'm only really interested in the Fujinon 55mm f2.2, which I'm reading is capable of producing interesting bokeh. It came with a bent Tiffen filter, but it screwed right off, and it's in excellent condition.
The camera itself is surprisingly in good shape. A few scuffs, but nothing really big like any dents, and it seems to be firing well and without issue! Ran into a problem with the battery compartment though -- it wouldn't open. Fortunately, this wouldn't prevent me from shooting with the camera, but it would render the built in meter useless. So of course, I had to go and try to pry this thing open.
I unscrewed the entire bottom plate off, and threw it in a bag of vinegar to eat away at the suspected culprit, battery corrosion.
After being submerged for 10 minutes, the battery compartment screwed right off and there was a small battery in there -- Eveready E400N. Can't find any information on that battery, so I'm just assuming that it's an old ass mercury battery left in for decades.
Don't know the extent of the corrosion, as the vinegar cleaned it up like new, but I'm hoping the meter can still operate when I pop in a new battery.
Got a confession tho.... I ended up buying a TESTED and working spotmatic from the same site for $24.
shyt should be coming in a few more days. Worst come to worst, i sell one of them off, but knowing my ass I'm just gonna keep both of them.
Wish I knew the owner history of this camera though. In it's condition, I would think this was just stored away in some senior's home. Plus it's nuts that the camera would still have a (suspected) mercury battery in it. Who knows though. Maybe someone else used it but never bothered with the battery or meter.
Edit: Popped the battery in and both the spotmatics have working light meters. The one that had the corroded battery is actually in better overall condition surprisingly.

Just ordered a 24mm and 50mm Sirui anamorphic lens. Hoping to take the video production up to the next level and get closer to that cinema quality/look.
What are you shooting with now?
