HD video doesn’t lend itself to portrait format images.
Some added grain but the film held up well for being 19 years expired.

When I have some time, I’ll scan the negatives. I got them scanned with processing and the originals are hi-res but super noisy.
The uncropped version. Damn I miss her.

My sweetie. I tried the PS “despeckle” filter but it didn’t help.
Trinity’s out of focus but it’s weird and I like weird.

The memory stick came with it so I checked for found photos. The only thing on it was a movie of a movie being played on a laptop or portable DVD player-type thing.

You ever look at some of the spam that gets caught by email filters? Sometimes there are lengthy paragraphs of text that looks like they were scraped from random emails, texts, and web sites. Some of it is tiny, like this one, and some is white text on a white background that goes on and on.
Red Lobster spam
Every now and then there’s something funny in it, like this bit of slam poetry.

This popped up at an online Sudoku site. I probably don’t want to know.

Photoworks ISO 400 film. Expired in 2006. Scanned on a Canon 9000f at 2400DPI and reduced to 1024 on the long side for upload.
The sensor apparently adjusts the flash. The film is 400 but it’s lost speed with age so probably more like 200. Indoor shots are underexposed so the scanner pumps up the gain so I get film grain plus scanner noise. Still, not bad for a cheap camera and cheap, old film.
The munchkin took this one.

My timing was off and I split the car with the pole.
Some research info…
The auction ad showing the manual copyright date and the box showing that the camera was sold by itself.
This next ad might be able to claim accuracy on technicalities. The shutter could be accurate at all of its one speeds. It auto-focuses at the one, fixed, focus setting. Maybe there were variations and some cameras came with an f/4.5 lens.
This same info was in several ads by different sellers.
ISO info from a picture of a manual page in another ad.
Kudos to QVC for advertising with accurate information.
