In the waning chill of February 2026 I took a few of my favorite vintage cameras and lenses to New York City to meet up with east coast OscuraFlex users for a coffee at the International Center for Photography.
Here's what I managed to cram into my suitcase...
The city was hit with a pretty massive snowstorm a few days into my trip, which made for some really great photography opportunities, while also making gloves a necessity. Luckily I had just finished the prototype of the Bluetooth Remote Shutter Button for Graflex and a Shutter Button Grip for the Polaroid Land Camera, so I was eager to test those out and avoid having to take my gloves off to use the iPhone screen.
Here are a few daytime shots taken with my trusty vintage Graflex 4x5 equipped with an ObscuraFlex adapter for iPhone 16 Pro.
And some vertical shots...
And once the snow started to melt I ventured out at night to see what my 200mm f2.5 Buhl lens combined with the iPhone Pro's "Night Mode" could manage to capture. I was really happy with what came out of that combo.
