Hello all, I am Matt, originally from the UK but for the past nine years living in Czech Republic.

I took up photography at 15, when my father gave me one of his Nikkormats (an FTn with 50mm f/2). I did a year of photography at school, then moved on to other things. Five years ago, I dusted off my old kit and began shooting film again. I sold the Nikkormat a few years ago, and now spend an hour a week trawling eBay in the hope of finding it again. I had an FM2n for 20 years, but sold it when I bought an F3HP. I had a Mamiya C220 for a while, but replaced it with a Minolta Autocord. In addition to the F3 and the Autocord, I also have an F2AS and a pair of Nikkormat FT2s. I recently bought an enlarger, and am hoping to start home printing again soon. As far as film goes, I mostly shoot Ilford HP5, with a bit of FP4 and some Fomapan.

You can see my photos here.

Thanks people. Yes, It's a wonderfully photogenic country - beautiful architecture in the towns, and fantastic nature. The beer is perfect too :D
 
Welcome! For many years the Minolta Autocord was my camera of choice (and my Nikon FE for 35mm) but in the past few years they have been replaced by a Rolleiflex and FM3a. It's nice to see someone here with a somewhat similar set up to what I use!

Looking forward to seeing more of your work!

Thanks. Yes, I really like the Autocord, to the point that I'm tempted to get a second.

Your websites are excellent, some really great photos.
