fujica ax-5

When I purchased a Fujica 2X teleconverter on Ebay, several extraneous accessories I planned on reselling were included. One of these was a Fujica AX-5* that impressed me with its heft. To ascertain whether it still functioned, I needed a battery, so I headed off to Showcase. With a fresh battery, the […]

fujica 2x teleconverter

Two weeks ago, I found an X mount Fujica 2X teleconverter on Ebay bundled with a Fujica AX-5, an X winder, and other junk. I did not want the extraneous camera equipment. I bid anyway, as Fujica brand teleconverters are not readily available and it would enhance my Fujica STX-1. The teleconverter […]

polaroid 1200si review

Alert readers will remember that back in June I purchased a Polaroid 1200si from Amazon. I chose this camera because I like the vintage look of Polaroid photos and I have a fascination with obsolete technology.
After using the camera for a few months now, I am happy to report that it takes […]

olympus stylus verve s

Last week, I ordered a tiny little camera for recreational purposes. I chose the 5.0 megapixel Olympus Stylus Verve S, because of the incredibly compact size and previous positive experience with a film based Stylus.
After taking several shots with it, I determined that photo quality is good for this class of camera […]

finding mr. fangs

A general tendancy here at the Prizzo Skeezy is to focus on the crappy aspects of living in Atlanta, resulting in an overwhelming tidal wave of negativity. Today, in contrast, it will be all kittens, flowers, peace, love, and other tree-hugging hippie bullshit.
One of the nice things about living in Atlanta is […]

fujinar 28mm f/2.8 review

Back in January, I found a Fujinar 28mm f/2.8 lens on eBay. For the $25.00 I paid for it, this lens is a totally bitchin’ deal. Sharpness is all right, every properly focused photograph has come out with plenty of detail. The old school manual focus feel is top-notch and far better […]

old school

The Polaroid 1200si I ordered from Amazon just arrived in the mail. It appears to work fine. Stay tuned for further developments.

Nikkor 28-70mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF-S

This lens is fucking sweet. It costs more than a full suspension mountain bike and is worth every cent. All those cents buy a constant aperature zoom that is faster than a blown Supra and sharper than a set of Henckels knives.
The lens also features silentwave autofocus that is is unfuckingbelievable. […]

my nikons are getting jealous

The week before last, I finally joined the space age and bought an iPod photo. After some initial issues, due to my inebriated state and general inability to follow instructions, I got it set up and working fine. Now, like American Express, I never leave home without it. If you have the […]

four thousand

Aspherical has been up and running for roughly three months. According to the counter that came with Pixelpost, approximately 4,000 people visited. In addition, several people commented on the images. In contrast, I doubt the Prizzo Skeezy has garnered that many visitors in a year. And about five people have […]
