the yunon YN500
i started off my 3 day weekend with a saturday morning yoga class, a 5 minute stop at the chino spectrum to take pictures of brick [odd, i know], and then a stop at my local thrift store. i came away with a new $2 35mm yunon plastic camera– quite similar to my diana clone, but a little hipper. it’s got 4 aperture settings, a tripod mount, and a hot shoe, but no bulb setting [sadly]. i almost bought a cheap [and quite old] polaroid colorpack land camera 2 as well, but i don’t think i can afford the film. well, that and it was big and dirty.
of course, to go with my $2 camera, i needed 99 cent store film– so i picked up some lucky 200 on the way home from there. and then, since i was running errands anyway, i stopped by the store next door, and found mizthra cheese! it’s the only place i know of that sells it. i’ll have to try my hand at a dish sometime this weekend to try it out. for now, i’ll just enjoy my chicken-avacado-basil-almond-brie wrap thingy that i just made. yum.
