How did these two mumbling malcontents pump out pods for five years and ninety-eight nattering episodes? In this one, the boys barely discuss that at all! Instead Jeff recaps his trip to London, to the shop where he bought both his Alpa and XPan, and Gabe recounts his acquisition of a legendary lens owned by an even-more-legendary photographer. A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest — tune in!
November 20 marks IDOC’s fifth anniversary, and the 21st marks Jeff’s birthday!
Jeff briefly recounts his trip to London, including a stop at Camera City, the shop where he got both his first Alpa and his first XPan
Gabe’s birthday bonanza included a Lab-Box and a Negative Supply scanning rig…
…he found a Beseler 67SC enlarger on FB Marketplace…
…and went to (basically) Spahn Ranch in the Hollywood Hills to secure a 80mm f4 Rodenstock Rodagon enlarger lens… which, it turns out, used to belong to Herb Ritts!
our continuing adventures with the maddeningly inconsistent Chad GPT: it misled Jeff about the fate of the final penny, and lied to Gabe about a mysterious TLR which turned out to be a rare Rolleiflex 2.8F white face
what do the boys think of the soon-come Widelux XX?
sad news: Freestyle Photo is closing their brick-and-mortar location
should Jeff buy an O.G. Alpa-Reflex on the ‘bay to complete his collection?
once again, we improbably empty the Prodigious Mailbag™
and now you must run to the L.A. Camera Expo in Burbank ‘cause it’s happening at this very moment!

Jeff’s back from the Caribbean island of St. Barth’s with a report on his new favorite beach camera, while out in the West, Gabe’s renewed camera collection continues to burgeon... as does the enmity of one listener each time Jeff mentions the Pentax 17. Find out why in the latest un-dour, un-flaccid episode of I Dream of Cameras, because provocation is our forte!
* Gabe shot his Kiev 60 and the Bronica ETR-Si
* and is eyeing:
* black Leicaflex SL
* 35mm f4 Schneider lens for Leicaflex
* and Mamiya Universal
* meanwhile, Jeff is eyeing:
* Pentax MX
* Weltron 2007
* Atari 4-Player Football
* Alpa Si 3000
* Nikkor F
* Jeff's St. Barth's report: the Ona Union Street camera bag was ideal
* of course he brought the Hasselblad XPan, but at the last minute subbed in the Canon EOS Rebel 2000 for the Olympus XA4, and it was the perfect beach-party nighttime-flash trash camera
* he shot mostly Portra 160 and 400, but also tried some Santacolor 100 and Film Washi X, which it turns out are the same thing! Kodak Aerocolor IV
* no hand-check madness on this trip - Sint Maarten, Saint Barthélemy, all security personnel were totally obliging - once again we credit the Sissi Lu DO NOT X-RAY bag, now available at a camera store near you
* good travel buddies: Zeiss lens wipes and a rocket air blower
* let’s help Lina Bessonova and handcheckfilm.com! when you travel, send a report to her contact page so she can keep this valuable resource up to date
* Gabe recommends Graination in Toronto, a coffee shop and film lab
* we stick our snouts deep into the Prodigious Mailbag™, where a listener savagely upbraids Jeff for calling the Pentax 17 by its proper name (here’s proof)
* finally, look for our appearance on an obscure podcast called Camerosity, talkin’ Alpas
