Just bought 8x10 polaroid equipment (everyone's getting rid of theirs cheap) and some typ 809 and 803 I scrounged up from B&H. Last chance to try it I guess.

This weekend I will hopefully be taking out my recently converted Polaroid 110A.
It now takes 120 film on a 6x10cm format, six pictures per roll.
I was going to do a 5x4 conversion but the rangefinder window would have been obscured. I need a 110B for that now.

The FG is quite a nice compact body which is often forgotten about. It was one of the first (along with the F3 I think) Nikon bodies to have TTL flash metering and works in manual, aperture and program mode (you have probably worked this out for yourself by now!).

I have had one for twenty five years (at least) which has never had a problem.

I can't comment on the lens although I do have a Hanimex 135mm 2.8 which is excellent despite Hanimex not being known as a quality lens manufacturer.

Have fun,


Steve.

My new Rolleiflex Automat was just CLA'd and last week I tested with a roll Fujicolor 160. I found no problems.
I'm new to the Rolleiflex, I was curious to see what all the fuss was about. I really like the thing; light weight,accurate focusing
quiet (very quiet) and sturdy.

This week I'll carry around with me and see what I find. I've got some XP-2 in it.

Coworker wanted his Nikon FG and 50mm 1.4 to go to a good home, so he dropped it off on my desk. Will replace the batteries and load up some Ilford for a test drive.

This weekend I am joining about six friends and a dozen other people I don't know to do some walking in the Brecon Beacons (Wales). One of my friends is getting married soon and we are doing this instead of the traditional stag party event of getting drunk and leaving the groom chained naked to a lamp post!

I have not decided which camera to take yet, I expect it will rain all weekend anyway.

I am mostly testing my Folmer & Schwing 4x5 camera this week with fomapan100 and APHS ortho litho film. LF is totally weird and different to 35mm and medium format...

I ended up taking the Rolleicord and I sent my friend a print of him at a farm gate. He was so impressed that he immediately put it on the home page of his website.

Dead Link Removed

And yes, it did rain all weekend!

Kodak Retina IIc with 50/2.8 SK Retina-Xenon C, 35/5.6 SK Retina-Curtar-Xenon C and 80/4 SK Retina-Longar-Xenon C lenses. I've had this camera almost two years without taking a shot with it,...until yesterday and today. Film is Ilford XP2 and Ilford Delta 100.

And then the usual: my daily shooter, a Nikon F5AE with 24-85 Nikkor zoom. My Bronica EC-TL system with Nikon lenses on Thursday & Friday.

I have a box of Rollei R3 I am dying to crack open to feed my Yashicamat 124; just waiting for my developer!. Otherwise I have a Leica MP Classic loaded with Rollei Retro 400 (= Agfa APX400) on standby.

Yesterday and this morning it was the Holga, but not likely to be all week. It just seemed right for this one scene I've shot a few times this wk-end.
