    Sacrifice (193/365)

    Remember that Yashica from 2 days ago? To repair that the camera you see here was sacrificed. It had a wonderfully clear finder unfortunately all the electrics had failed. So I had pulled it's finder out. The process would be a difficult one. The film advance leaver was jammed onto the camera and I needed pliers to yank it off. The metal top plate was also stuck to the body so it also suffered massive damage.

    On the plus side I did yank the lamps off it and put power through. They still work! Not that that's surprising but still.

    Camera: Canon 5D mark II With Canon 100mm macro (@F2.8)

    6 photo composite.

    Strobist info: Canon 580EX with the foldable softbox the lumiquest LTP to the left of the frame and slightly behind and a Canon 550EX fired bare a few times in for the photo composite to enhance the lens in the photo.

      I hope the transplant operation was a success

      Yup it's worked out very nicely. I'm very pleased with the result and it also taught me a few things about how to calibrate the camera.
