Moskva 5: An Everyday Camera For An Everyday Bag | Episode I

I am on a mission to find my perfect every day (film) camera to make sure I take *1* picture a day.

Featuring in this episode:
📷 the #МОКБА-5, a mid-century Soviet foldable medium format,
👜 and my i-guess-i-have-a-client-meeting-i-need-to-dress-up-for bag.

Watch if you want to know more about the #Moskva5, if you are interested in an affordable medium format camera, or if you too are looking for ways to include more photography in your day-to-day life.

Very self consciously posting my very first youtube video! I could write a book about everything gone wrong and everything still bad, but you have to start somewhere...
This is me starting. Some-Where.
Will do my best to improve bit by bit as I go, meanwhile just happy to be here and virtually meet you! 💃

Cool video! And interesting to view photography through a lens of anthropology. I’m afraid that most everyday cameras present itself in the realm of 35mm. It’s plausible, given your affection for medium format, that you’d be interested in let’s a Yashica Electro 35GX as an everyday carry. If you pair it with certain films they rival medium format in quality. The Yashinon lenses are amazing and posses a very lucid charm.
Love the videos! The have a very lovely ASMR excitement. Try to not worry about mistakes. We all make them. After all, it’s what makes us human.
Hopefully you’ll make more video!

Great review. Get yourself a cheap lav mic to better feature your amazing voice.

This one is a great camera, but definitely not your everyday film camera. Much to cumbersome and complicated, and the rangefinder and the viewer are just to small. Maybe you could do a video about what your everyday film camera should provide.
