Isoly

Petone, NZ, 2009: Before the Holga, and even the Diana, was the “Isoly”… The Agfa Isoly was an inexpensive and simple plastic camera made by Agfa in the 1960’s.

Kingdom Come… and gone…

The $180 million dollar feature about the life of Jesus was scheduled to be shot in 2009, but ran into financial difficulty soon after… It seems we may have been saved- at least for now- from another Jesus epic… […]
