The Equatorial sun dial gracing the riverside even has its very own Wikipedia entry.
That Mamiya Myrapid had been sleeping on the shelf of the antiques shop for quite a while. Very stylish camera, but it has a bad dent in the filter ring, relies on a selenium cell for exposure, and came with only one Rapid cartridges. I already had another Rapid cartridge, the asking price was low enough and the enthusiasm of a brief lapse in lockdown that allowed the antiques shop to open made the rest. Turns out the light metering isn't quite anywhere close to where it should be, all frames came out ridiculously overexposed. Even if i tape the ISO-tab arm in the 400 position, it will still expose pretty badly. It light end up on expired film duty, or for indoor pictures, since it seems shutter speed never drops below 1/30s.

Mamiya Myrapid and its Mamiya-Tominon 1:1.7 f = 32 mm, Fomapan 100 in Rodinal 1+50 for 9min @ 20°C and digitalized using kit zoom and extension tubes.
