Cool Classic Film Cameras


If you're young enough, you may have only ever owned a digital camera. The idea of loading film and shooting without instant feedback of each shot is an alien one. For the older folks, there may be some nostalgia for cameras of old, whether it be a pocket point-and-shoot or a fully manual 35mm SLR.Despite digital's dominance, and Kodak's well-publicized financial woes, film is still alive and well in 2013. Lomography churns out a number of film cameras, ranging from inexpensive toy cameras like the Diana F+ to more refined bodies like the Horizon Kompakt.

Voigtlander and Leica are actively producing 35mm rangefinders, and you can buy brand new medium format cameras from Fujifilm and Rolleiflex. Kodak's color negative films, especially Ektar 100 and Portra 400, are of better quality than any digital product that the company ever turned out, and its Tri-X black-and-white film is still the favorite of many a film aficionado. Fujifilm specializes in color slide films like Velvia and Provia, and Ilford's black-and-white film stocks are extensive, ranging in ISO speeds from 50 all the way up to 3200.

The wonderful thing about an older camera is that it can use film that is superior in quality to what was available when it was new. If you're interested in giving film a try, whether it be for nostalgic reasons or simply to ignite a creative spark, we have a few favorites that are worth hunting down. They range in price, design, and function—but each is a classic in its own way.

Stealing photos and spying backdoors to networked cameras

Cameras with Wi-Fi connectivity and a web server are supposed to make it easier to take pictures and upload photo files, but they aren't very secure against attackers. As two team members at security company ERNWGerman language link of Heidelberg demonstrated at the Troopers 13 security conference, some of the communication protocols can be misused to steal and manipulate photos, turning the camera into a spy system.

Daniel Mende and Pascal Turbing used Canon's EOS-1D X as an example. Canon's current flagship DSLR model offers four ways to communicate with a network: FTP, DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), WFT (Wireless File Transmitter) and the "EOS Utility Mode", which first uses MDNS and then PTP/IP. Mende and Turbing provided attack scenarios for all of the protocols. Out of the box, the EOS-1D X can connect to a network with an Ethernet cable; it can only use Wi-Fi once a WFT-E6 Wireless File Transmitter has been added.If photos are sent directly to an FTP server, attackers can get a hold of login data by "listening in" on the unencrypted FTP network traffic. For DLNA, which is based on UPNP-AV, XML is used to exchange information via HTTP.

The photos are accessible via HTTP without any authentication required.The camera's Wireless File Transmitter (WFT) is another opportunity for attack. If the transmitter is accessed with a web browser, an AJAX application allows the camera to be controlled – which means that pictures can be taken and downloaded. In this case, there is authentication based on the HTTP basic authentication standard, but once that hurdle is cleared, the session ID consists of HEX characters and is only four bytes long. The 65,536 possible session IDs can be tested in just a few minutes, leaving the web server wide open.

HTC One UltraPixel Camera Versus the Competition

When HTC first showed the world the One last month, it touted the merits of the camera's larger "UltraPixels". Theory says that larger pixels could produce better images than the competition. In practice? We're pretty damned impressed.

We compared the HTC One's camera to the cameras on the Nokia Lumia 920 and Apple iPhone 5, which were the top cameras in our recent smartphone camera battlemodo. We tested the camera in low-light both with and without flash, as well as in daylight. The photos in this test are taken from identical spots in every case, so any differences in the framing of the images is because of slight differences each camera's field-of-view. In almost every situation the HTC One's camera performed above our expectations—and above its competitors.

In the image above, you begin to see what we're talking about. The camera's color rendition and dynamic range is spectacular. The HTC One image is sharp and captures deep red in the roses as well as the correct green color on the leaves in the background. Whereas the roses in both the iPhone and Lumia 920 images look plastic and over-processed, the HTC One looks like reality.

Memoto Mini Camera Automatically Captures Your Life Every 30 Seconds

Sure, thanks to smartphones most of us have a camera with us most of the time. But what we don't have is a camera on us to capture all those  moments when we aren't holding the phone up to take a framed shot. And that, if you ask the two-Swedish creators of the Memoto camera, is a problem worth solving."The idea is that you can now capture photos you wouldn't have otherwise," Oskar Kalmaru, one of the co-founders of Memoto, told ABC News at SXSW. "With your iPhone you can capture stuff you know you want to shoot, but you have to interrupt that moment and know that the moment is going to be special. With this you know you are going to capture that moment."

The Memoto camera, which raised $550,189 on Kickstarter in 2012, is a small wearable 5-megapixel camera about the size of those Listerine Breath Strips packs. The $279 camera clips on to a shirt or coat and automatically captures two photos every minute — or one photo every 30 seconds. It has a microUSB port for syncing it with your computer and 8GB of storage, which can hold two days or 4,000 photos. The company will offer a 32GB version, which can capture eight days of photos, but the little device has to be charged every two days anyway.

But who wants to comb through 4,000 photos every time they sync the camera with their computer? That's where the software comes in. While the camera doesn't have Bluetooth because of battery life concerns, when you plug it in and sync it with the app it will organize the photos."You are never going to look at 4,000 photos. You will see the key frames of each moment which has been picked as the best one. The best being decided by color, focus and if there are faces in it," Kalmaru explained.

New Space Station Camera Snaps First Image of Earth

NASA officials hope that the ISERV Pathfinder camera (short for International Space Station SERVIR Environmental Research and Visualization System) will give scientists on the ground more insight into environmental issues around the globe."ISERV's full potential is yet to be seen, but we hope it will really make a difference in people's lives," principal investigator Burgess Howell of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., told the Earth Observatory.

"For example, if an earthen dam gives way in Bhutan, we want to be able to show officials where the bridge is out or where a road is washed out or a power substation is inundated. This kind of information is critical to focus and speed rescue efforts."Controlled from Marshall, NASA scientists will use positioning software to map exactly where the space station is flying to target and photograph points of interest on the surface of the Earth.

"If there's a good viewing opportunity, the SERVIR team will instruct the camera to take high-resolution photographs at 3 to 7 frames per second, totaling as many as 100 images per pass," reported the Earth Observatory. "With a resolution down to 10 feet (3.2 m) it will be possible to spot fairly small details and objects."The camera isn't available for this kind of research just yet, however. Engineers are still working out ISERV's kinks before starting in on basic scientific work in a few months.

Socialmatic Polaroid Camera to Print Instagram-Style Pictures

The Socialmatic camera allows its users to point, snap and apply one of Instagram's retro filters to get various artistic effects. Keeping with the theme of turning a digital concept into something more palpable, users can post a caption on their photos before printing them.

The slim, square camera resembles the Instagram app icon. But De Rosa said product design details were still being finalized and the look could change.The device will have a built-in Zink printer, Wi-Fi and the ability to sync photos to one's Instagram and Facebook accounts.

Socialmatic's licensing deal with Polaroid will also include accessories such as camera bags, lenses and filters, De Rosa said.The Instagram app launched in 2010, allowing users to post retro filters to their smartphone photos before sharing them across social media. Instagram was acquired by Facebook last year for $1 billion.
