Sacrilege? 000067010014 - a photo on Flickriver

            Sacrilege (noun): violation or misuse of what is regarded as sacred. 

In this case, putting a Soviet-made Helios 44M onto an Olympus OM-2SP (it doesn't lock, you have to hold it there). The aperture pin on the back of the lens has to be carefully positioned so that it does not foul the mirror in the camera. Olympus fanatics may struggle with the idea of something as clumsy and low-tech as the Helios being used on an OM-2SP. 

Lomo purple is sensitive to infrared and has an odd colour balance, making it look very much like Kodak Aerochrome. 

Date taken: September 3 2021

Camera: Olympus OM-2 Spot Program

Film: Lomography Purple XR

Lens: Helios 44M (58mm f/2), no filter

ISO setting: 160

Aperture: f/2

Exposure: Off-the-film electronic metering, probably about 1/100s. OTF metering was essential, prior to exposure, the camera was confused by the non-OM lens and thought the exposure needed to be very long. 

Developing and scanning: The Film Safe Ltd

Post processing: None

Taken in: UK / Scotland / Torrance (show map)
