Well, this is an interesting turn up for the books. It turns out that while many photographers are trying to adapt their old film cameras to their shiny new Sony cameras, one photographer, Alexander Gee, was doing the opposite. He wanted a film camera that would work with his modern Sony E-Mount lenses. LEX, as the camera is called, is a one-man operation, and it seems to have come quite far already....
Now that the music Festivals are starting, I think it’s a good time to share what’s in my bag for Music Festivals.
