In this video, I talk about a recent camera repair gone wrong. I was trying to revive a Ricoh "35" S with a stuck shutter, but I couldn't Frankenstein it.

I still came away with a few good photos of the internal components, so it wasn't a complete fail.

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency this might not be the best place. These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv remote control. Pretty random and confused.
