Camera mirror was a bit sluggish in 20 degree weather, went back out in above freezing Temps and it was fine. Here are a few shots..

Great shots! Love the DOF on the vehicle shots. I have always wanted to shoot that 67, a friend of mine is a pro digital photographer and he lets a full Pentax 67 kit sit on his closet floor. I feel its my duty to steal that thing and shoot the hell out of it.

Love the Ektar vibes, man. Thanks for sharing!

Love the Cannibus. Reminds me of the old VW buses back in the 60's and 70's that were brightly painted w/ flowers and stuff, and often had signs that said "Don't laugh, your daughter could be in here". The Hippie's Revenge. My memory is sorta reeferized, but I'm not sure we would have even known what cannabis even was back then. It was weed, man.

That's one thing I haven't shot with the P6x7. Ektar 100 is so sharp, I really need to pair it with the Pentax. Going to a car show here in the Dallas area Saturday and might whip out the Ektar!



Sounds like you need to offer them some $ for it so it gets used. Honestly, these bodies need to get used or they have problems.a

I'm not much of a color buff but those are great...especially like the Cannibus. There was a "Jeepney" from the Philippines at the 1982 worlds Fair that I shot in both color and B&W and it looked great either way. It' had more colors and mirrors than you'd need for five vehicles. That's what made it stand out. I did the color on K64 and Cibachrome print but I can't locate the print. If I do I'll have to post it.
