Some images, taken in the last 10 or so yrs, with Minox 8x11 cameras (in fact most of them are taken with Minox IIIs), various films, various places in Central and Eastern Europe.

Wow! Very nice!

Care to share any film and developer choices for the above?

Always nice to see photos to show to skeptics. The IIIs is my favorite as well.

I recently traded in my Minox MX for an Acmel MD -- an MX with automatic shutter speed control -- but have not used it yet.

What do you use for metering?

From the top: Konica VX400 Monochrome (Rodinal), Ilford Pan F50 (Ilfosol 3), next two are Agfa APX 25 (Rodinal Special), Adox CMS 20 (Atomal 49), last two are Agfa APX 100 (Rodinal Special). I do not remember the times and dilutions, sorry, been quite a while since.

I had once a brand new MX, traded it for a used B ; MX was a good camera, never got used to it though.

If it comes to IIIs or even B, I meter by eye most of the times, not very difficult if you bracket the odd shot. I do carry a light meter with me, but I only use it if the subject is difficult in reading. Other Minox cameras, having the internal meter, I use that.

This one for instance was metered by eye, and I usually compensate some 1/2 stop lower, to get the shadows right.
