Sure is. I just filled the tank in my beetle for $3.

Nope. Full. I'm in 1968, remember? Hube the cube is on TV tonight.

Been using my Zeiss Ikon Contessa this week. Later today, I am going out with my Canon EOS 50e loaded with Kodak Plus X film. I just bought an out-of-date bulk roll of the film and this is to test the film as much as anything.

Nikon F2AS with 85/1.8 Nikkor-H AI'd, Ektar 100. F also has Ektar 100 in it and a 35/2 Nikkor-O AI'd attached to it... Spottie has Adox CHS 100 in it and a 55/2 Super-Tak hanging off the front.

Loaded my Exa with Plus-X (sighhhhhh) likely going to take a while to finish this roll.

I am using two cameras this week. First is my Minolta Uniomat with Agfa colour negative film and the second is my 'new' Ihagee Exa 1a which is loaded with Kodak Plus X. Hope they can both cope with miserable dull weather.

I have my 1960's Asahi Pentax SV loaded with some 'back to front' Fuji Super G 400 outdated to try this 'RedScale film process'.
My 1971 Pentacon Six has some 2001 outdated Kodak Porta 400 NC in it but the weather is far too grey now to go out with it.
My 1980's Canon AE1 has a short length of Ilford Delta 400 in it .

I got a nice little Minolta ALS rangefinder from Pakistan in the mail
CdS Meter, Rokkor 40/1.7, small...

Will have to try it over the weekend

Shooting an F4S with Kodak UltraColor 400 and an F3HP with Kodak BW400CN. Both are new cameras that I've gotten in the past month or so. First time using them.

My brother the "money burning a hole in the pants pocket guy, so buy anything that looks like crap because it's cheap" came home with a bag containing a Minolta XG-7 with peeling leather and a 45mm Rokkor-X F2 lens besides some Quantary lenses; Why? So I'm a sucker for old stuff and am wanting to see how good/bad the lens is. Just ordered some film and awaiting arrival so next weak will speak as to the lens. Beyond that the body will either join my old folks home of crap that can't be sold or be stuffed under the seat of my truck for a knock about. With my collection of 35mm metal bodies nobody wants I almost have an anchor. Which might work out since he also came home with a 17 ft runabout in crap condition.
