Have you ever wanted to use the Actionsampler at night - not only for close up portraits but mysterious night scenes and panoramas of the city skyline? Eyecon (http://beta.lomography.com/homes/eyecon) might just have found the solution for you! You need: • Put the Actionsampler in front of you and open it. You will see 3 screws right in front of you (2 on the left, 1 on the right) - there is one more hiding inside of the filmcoil (Nr. 4 on the pic). Unscrew all Of them and keep the screws in a safe place where you can´t lose them. • Lift up the black inner part from the outer shell (don´t forget to remove the filmcoil). This can be a bit tricky - be patient - after a while you have two separated parts in front of you. Be careful - don´t lose the lenses! Due to a difference in design - you will only be able to do this modification if your Actionsampler has 3 strips in the bottom left corner (see picture) |
