Now off, off topic…

Anybody else seen these / this? Just a bit pricey for my taste at present - but interesting enough that if prices might eventually come down a bit, I might spring for an ObscuraFlex™ system. See: https://obscuraflex.com/



Two sample images:



Several… Crown, Speed Graphic and various other 4x5 view cameras gathering dust around here but this piqued my interest, reminding me of my own similar results from pinhole and camera obscura pics taken so very long ago. (No, I didn’t know Jacques-Henri Lartigue or Joseph Nicéphore Niépce, personally.)

Still I am too cheap or thrifty to spring for an expensive digital back for a large format camera, but this looks like a bit of fun… and using an iPhone in the process. Well, maybe fun.

And yes, likely I can get the same or very similar soft focus and shallow depth of field effects in Photoshop… but where’s the fun in that? Sorry for the Reddit link below… but for more examples, via video.
