Swing lens cameras are surprisingly good indoors and are easy to handhold at very slow (1/8s) speeds.

This was from my 2nd roll I shot in my Horizon 202. IIRC it was 1/4s

Epson V500

Yikes! The guy in the photo looks quite a bit like me!

That camera and lens have become nearly my favorite combo, and arguably my best photo from last year was from the pair.

And it’s really annoying that he is completely disregarding the fact that it’s impossible to take good pictures without modern gear and plenty of megapickles
