Roman Numerals
Roman numerals are a system of numerical notations used by the Romans. They are an additive (and subtractive) system in which letters are used to denote certain "base" numbers, and arbitrary numbers are then denoted using combinations of symbols.

Review: A Serbian Film - Reviews
A handful of films are so appalling that a strange mystique surrounds them — a mixture of fascination, curiosity, and repulsion. One of these rare specimens is Srdan Spasojevic's 2010 horror entry A Serbian Film.

102-Year-Old Lens Plus Canon 5D Mark II Equals Instant Vintage Photos
Photographer Timur Civan had a project that required vintage-looking photographs. Originally planning to shoot the project on a 4×5 large format camera, he abandoned that route after calculating the cost for equipment and processing. His lens technician friend then discovered a 1908 Wollensak 35mm F5.0 Cine-Velostigmat hand-cranked lens in a box of spare parts, and spent 6 hours helping him make the lens fit on an EF mount for Civan’s 5D Mark II.
