Yes Butcher...We are alive - Aaron




My internet sucks right now so Im only going to upload this one. But kyle and I finally got the chance to start shooting some personal stuff instead of just real estate, which we figured wouldnt really fit up here. So anyway we have more of this stuff coming, but we are simply shooting our DSLR's through different old viewfinders like this waste-level of an old medium format.

It would be interesting to see a project with this... what kind of view finder are you shooting it with and how are you doing it.... I'd love to know your set up

its an old kona medium format with a roughly 3x3 inch waist-level view finder. Kyle is planning on doing an entire series with this and i would like to just keep it around for some artsy portrait stuff for the business. As it turns out you just pretty much have to shoot with it outdoors. You otherwise cant get enough light for it to be effective. we basically have the Kona on a tripod down low with the DSLR on a tripod shooting strait down into it. The trick is finding a lens setup with a close enough minimum focus so the overall setup is relatively small. ill post a picture later of the setup.
