If you're nostalgic for your old Rolleiflex . . . the Blackbird, Fly is coming soon

These retro cameras from Superheadz, called "Blackbird, Fly" are reminiscent of the twin lens reflex Rolleiflex cameras from the olden days, only these cameras take 35mm film rather than the traditional medium format film used in the originals. But, in honor of the originals, these new cameras produce square images (just smaller) so you retain that full retro feeling when you're looking at the results. Trends in Japan tells us this camera will sell for under $100. Maybe they'll be out in time for the holidays.
