Hello Hello Hello Hello

Hello, my name is Actionsampler. I can be a bit annoying as I repeat everything four times. I can be a bit annoying as I... Sorry.

They say that every picture tells a story, but mine tell four. I am very bad at taking boring pictures. If you are a person on the move (or just moving, that would do too) and like action-packed adventures then I am made for you. I take 35mm pictures sliced in four sequential panels.

I am the perfect companion for all your travels. I even like being in your bag when you just go shopping for groceries or are taking the bus to work. I am there for you, always ready to come into action immediately. I need no focusing, have a fixed aperture, do not do shutter-speeds. I am as loyal as a dog. People call me simple, but I tend to say I am the best that happened to photography since the invention of the wheel... Oh well, whatever. What I should say is that I am the best that can happen to you. Simple! Me? No way. Just easy-going.

All I need is one click, and I will give you a series of four pictures in one print – each scene captured in each frame! I am simple-to-use, lightning-quick, and convenient. Yes, that's me! As they say in the ad about me, 'the Actionsampler will be your fierce ally in documenting your shenanigans'. Now don't ask me what that last word means. But I promise I will document it.

I have just arrived in Sofia (man, it's hot here and my chrome skin does not help) and people have been staring at me from the moment I left the airport. They say they have never seen the likes of this here before. The other day, when I went for a walk, they called me a cheap bastard! I can't deny that. I am yours, forever, for only 55 leva (no, that is not a typo!).
