Last month during one of my forages through the roadside shops at the Sunday market at Charminar, I chanced upon a totally wasted SX70. I was able to get it at a good price as the shopkeeper was more than happy to part with he must have thought was a useless piece of junk.
The SX70 is a legendary camera and is sought after in the Lomography circuit. This unit was beyond repair though and I had no intention of bringing it back to life. I only wanted it to look good on the shelf so I started to look for ways to improve its look. The leftover fabric from the previous car restoration project was all I needed. Plus glue. And Patience... loads of it.
The pictures will explain why.
A very rough job but definitely a step up from the shabby look it was in when I picked it up. Plus it looks great on the shelf now.
