I've lost all the strings used to get this started so by the time I've ran it down my leg or across the floor to get it to the starting RPM I'm usually 1/2 out of breath already.
These are fun though, esp after a few beers. My housemate thought it was rubbish till he had a go and then for 3 weeks it was a contest daily to get the highest score.

Fuji S5 Pro - Nikkor AF 50/1.8 - Nikkor AF 85/1.8 Epson RD-1 Film Kit: Leica M3 - Summicron 50/2 DR - Zeiss ZM 25/2.8 - M-Rokkor 40/2 Olympus OM2n - Zuiko 50/2 Macro - Zuiko 50/1.4 - Zuiko 35/2.8 |
