While Aldrin was taking photographs with the Hasselblad, Armstrong used the Gold 35mm stereo camera specifically designed by Kodak to take close-ups of the lunar surface.

“The stereo camera worked fine. We had no problems with it; however, it was hard to operate. I found that the angle that I had to put my hand on the handle to pull (the trigger) and the force that it took was excessive... I found my hand getting tired very soon while taking pictures with that camera. It was wearing out my grip”, said Neil Armstrong (1969 Technical Debrief, from the ALSJ mission transcript at 110:45:03 GET).

Aldrin took these photographs (originally shot on color film) while he was inspecting the LM to evaluate the effects of the landing.
He studied the landing gear – struts, footpads and contact probes – and observed the effects of engine exhaust and footpad impacts on the lunar surface itself, while recording the details with his camera.
The first photograph is a close-up of the plus-Y (north) footpad, showing the buried probe and the wind-swept appearance of the foreground soil, because of the effects of the Descent Engine plume.
The strut of the plus-Y (north) footpad and part of the descent engine of the LM are visible in the second photograph.

110:47:18 Aldrin: It’s very surprising, the very surprising lack of penetration of all four of the foot pads. I’d say if we were to try and determine just how far below the surface they would have penetrated, you’d measure (depths of) two or three inches, wouldn’t you say, Neil?
110:47:37 Armstrong: At the most, yes. That Y-strut there is probably even less than that. (Long Pause)
110:48:05 Aldrin: (Going east of the strut) I’ll get a picture of the plus-Y strut taken from near the descent stage, and I think we’ll be able to see a little bit better what the thermal effects are.
Seem to be quite minimal.

While he was inspecting the LM, Aldrin took this picture (originally shot on color film) of its ascent stage which would bring them back to lunar orbit.

This is a “close-up of the plus-Y (north) footpad of the LM from the east and a little south, with the Solar Wind Collector (SWC) to the right and, just to the left of the SWC, the TV camera. The U.S. flag is to the left of the strut, partially hidden by the strut support” (ALSJ caption for AS11-40-5920).
