1. She works great. She takes greast pics, she's instant, it's fun, looks bloody good..and captures mermories that will still be around for ages.

   The thing with this camera is that it compliments itself - where there's a good point for every bad point.

   For example, the size of it..it's really quite heavy and large, and when the top is extended, it's a pretty big piece of equipment to be playing with. Yet..the design is really cool..no matter what the size! it's a funky silver, with the cool lens and sleek edging..there's no reason why you wouldn't want to have one!

   Often, in bright bright daylight, the photos can become very white ie: too much light for the camera. This sometimes makes the photos a little blurry, and obviously the subject matter non defined. But at the same time..in the right light you have wicked intense colour.

   It I find is also quite difficult at times to judge the 2 different settings; 0.6m-1.2m or 1.2m-6m. Often when you think you are in one zone and you set the camera to that...it may still often be a little blurry, as you may be just in or out of the range.

   But the benefits here are that of simply having a polaroid camera..instant, instense coloured, extreme fun fotos.

   So overall she aint bad..and I'd definently reccomend her to anyone - simply for the fun that I have found the polaroid to be..you can relive an excellent moment 2 minutes later.




2. I have an older polaroid camera that takes better pictures than this one. One must be careful about the distance between you and the object being photographed. Outdoor pictures seem to be the most problematic. The picture quality just isn't as good or consistent as it should be.



3. I recently ordered the above product and am very dissatisifed with the results. Pictures are fuzzy and color is bad. Pictures are so small, regardless which of the two settings I use.

   Also, there is not any other adjustments or options to improve the quality of the pictures.

   I'm using the Polaroid Spectra Film two pack instant film which was all that was available at Dean's Camera Shop in Omaha. Is there another type of film I should use that would provide better pictures and where in Omaha can it be purchased. Is there any adjustment besides indoor-outdoor range??

1. Well made and easy to use. The shutter speed and aperture ranges allow total flexability in exposure settings. The film image size fits in a 2 1/4 enlarger film holder. The included camera handle is unecessary if attention is payed to holding the fingers at the edge if the camera. A real bargain besides.



2. I just got the camera today.
   The camera itself works well, I am shooting my first roll of film. I will add more to this review when I get the film developed.
   
   The leather case that comes with the camera was moldy. Quite moldy. This is pretty disappointing given that I paid almost $500 for this thing. I cleaned it with 70% ethanol and hopefully the mold will not come back. I would have sent it back, but you can't send only the case back. And I do love this beast of a camera.

4 comments about Blackbird Fly 35mm TLR Twin Lens Reflex Camera - Black with Orange Face.

1. I wanted to try a twin lens reflex camera but was not willing to spend on the Mamiya/Hasselblad brands; was unsure of Seagull/Holga- they looked cheap- so finally saw this camera- 35mm with twin lens reflex- Wow I thought! But I was totally wrong. This is a sham toy camera- the pictures it takes are mostly all out of focus. The operations including loading and unloading film are very cumbersome. I have wasted $120 on a piece of junk. Stay away from this camera- it only looks trendy, that's all!!!



2. this is a 'TOY CAMERA' and it shoots 35mm film. make no mistake about it.
   
   if you want perfect predictable photos, stick to digital.
   if a bit of unintentional blur pisses you off, stick to digital.
   if you think loading and unloading film is cumbersome, stick to digital.
   
   with that being said, this is a fantastic plastic TLR toy camera. it comes with 2 frame masks: a standard 35mm film format and a square format frame. You can even remove the mask entirely to expose the entire width of the film, including the side sprocket holes.
   
   the viewfinder takes a bit of getting used to, as it's smaller than most other TLR viewfinders. i've shot 2 rolls of film, and my images are actually sharper than i hoped they would be.
   
   i lucked out when i purchased my BBF because i had some amazon gift cards left over from Xmas. the blackbird fly gets 4 stars due to the steep price point (it's an import). i do think it is a bit expensive for a toy camera...



3. SO not worth $100+. I received this camera in a "goody bag" on a recent trip to Japan. It's a great toy camera, but I would only pay $50 or so for it. It's cute, kitchy, and well designed. But it is entirely made of plastic. There is a lot of blur and I believe it is not only due to the plastic lens but that the camera is so lite. When you release the shutter the entire camera moves (!)
   
   If you are a fan of toy cameras, enjoy. But be aware, in no way is this camera a good student camera or introduction to medium format. Buy a used YashicaMat or related camera if that's what you are looking for. Yes, a basic tlr will cost you $300 used in good condition, but if you buy this "bbf" (black bird fly) you'll spend <$100 and will have no guarantee how long it will last until one of the plastic parts breaks.
   
   Do understand, I am a fan of toy/pinhole cameras, just not at this price point.
   
   cheers...



4. Background: My experience is as a professional photographer and designer with more than 20 years of experience, and a lot of experience with "toy cameras". The "toy" camera movement (Diana, and Holga) is a well established avenue of art photography as well as just plain fun photography. Using cheap simple cameras with fuzzy lenses one can create some absolutely beautiful images. I've spent a lot of time working with Holgas (I have 4) and Hasselblads ( I have 2). Each of my Holgas were acquired for $15 or less... new. The most expensive accessory was a polaroid back that is remarkable and great to use. I started working in medium format with a Yashicamat 124G which i still have and cherish. If you are looking to get into medium format the Yashicamat is a great place to start and you can find them cheap on ebay. I love TLR and vertical view cameras because of the ground glass "backwards" viewers and their square format. Once you get used to that kind of set up you will always want such a viewfinder.
   
   that viewfinder is what caught my eye when I saw the Blackbird... along with the nice styling, great colors, and good feel of the plastic.
   
   REVIEW: there's a lot that is lacking in the experience of using this camera. The blackbird's viewfinder is not ground glass, it's a quasi optical finder with mirror. This kind of finder one can also see on old Argus TLRs (also available on ebay for cheap). But the viewfinder of the Blackbird is really messed up and hard to see through. If this camera cost $15 or $25 I'd consider it, but it's not. No one should pay over $100 for a camera like this, it's just not worth it and this ridiculous price flies in the face of the "toy" camera movement. People bought the holga and the diana because they were cheap AND they made interesting images.
   
   Overall the controls of the Blackbird are fine. They give you a very good range of manual focus from 0.8 meters to infinity. The shutter is smooth and crisp. The overall look and feel of the camera is very nice. (not $120 nice, more like $20 nice!)
   
   For those who want to get into medium format cameras, forget about this one. The film format is 35mm and the viewfinder sucks. If you want to do 35mm toy camera work there are a lot of toy 35mm cameras out there that will be easier and more fun to use. Medium format does make a difference and having a good clear way to frame a photo means a lot to getting a good composition - even in toy cam land.
   
   I did not buy one of these partly because I have not seen one cheap enough yet. I tried out a Blackbird that was loaned to me for evaluation. If I ever find an orange version of the blackbird selling for under $25 I'll very likely pick one up for myself, but it will be with some reservations. And aside from the bad viewfinder the other reservations are due to the 35mm film format. Yes I understand you can get this processed at a lot of places. And yes I get that you can use frame inserts to change the format from beyond 35mm to a cropped 24mm square, but that's not going to yield the same kind of results I would get from my holga shooting fuji instant film or 120 film. The holga also allows the photographer to use external flash and/or studio strobes. The holga is not as designery cute as the Blackbird, but if you want really cute there are a lot of old cameras on ebay that are seriously cute, seriously cheap, and which will be a lot more fun to use. Look for an old Argus, Voigtlander, and Yashica.

1. Expect this camera to do exactly what it says and you will be happy. This camera is small and convenient, so I can almost always find space for it in camera bag. It's made out of plastic, but the quality of the construction is very good. I have the gold version which looks great. It will make even dull subjects look interesting. It works very will with closeups of people. There are tricks you can do like putting colored filters over the lenses or using it to make 3D pictures to make your pictures even more interesting.

1. I bought this camera.
   At 5 meters was full of water...

   BE CAREFULL!!

   DO NOT BUY!!

   -message to amazon:
   you must have no star rating option-




2. please ignore this review.
   I was wrong about the type of camera.....
   (the type that I've tried was Sharkdiver sl301)

   sorry.




3. Unlike the other reviewers I had no problem taking pictures of fish and reefs in Mexico. The camera stayed dry and the housing held up. The only area of caution was keeping sand away from the rubber ring gasket. If you keep this camera and housing clean you should have no problems.



4. It works as advertised - no, it's not a great camera, but for the money it's great value.
