You can use any type of cardboard…I’ve even seen cereal boxes being used…be creative!! I also used a straight edge ruler and X-Acto Knife. I had an old piece lying around the studio and it was perfect. This also prevents reflections appearing on the viewfinder glass or on the lens of the imaging camera. The first thing you need to do is make a contraption like tube to link the two cameras and to block out any excess light. I used to love playing with it…playing “reporter”, as I went around the house taking fake pictures. I found one on EBAY (The Vintage Argus Argoflex Twin Lens TLR Camera w/4.5 75mm Lens) for $40…in mint condition!! And waited patiently for 3 days…īack in the 1970’s I remember my mom having this square leather-cased waist-leveled camera hanging from her neck. The most popular method to do this involves using a digital camera (in this case, my Canon 5d Mark III), and an older (retro baby!), twin-lens reflex camera (TLR). In my case, I saw some really retro looking images on-line and wanted to know “how’d you do that!?” (and, you know me…if it involves a DIY project…I’m in!) It’s like adding a special kind of lens filter. Shooting Through the Viewfinder (or TtV) is a really rad technique in which a photo is shot with one camera THROUGH the viewfinder of a second camera. What exactly did I do to capture this cool, retro look?
