First one since 1983, anyway. One of the gentlemen of my photo club cooperated with me while we were killing time at the photo club's annual exhibit. The set-up was bare-bones simple. An AF280T fired through a white umbrella high and to camera left, angled down. An AF200T on 1/4 power propped on a tabletop to camera right acted as fill. Background was just the wall, several meters behind him.
This is one kewl old-school dude. He's a local architect of some prominence, having designed a large number of our public schools and other facilities. Refuses to own a computer, was dragged kicking and screaming into cell phone hell, and has yet to enter the world of digital photography. He's strictly a film man, and much of that medium format with the Pentax 67II. He is also a hardcore landscape photographer who thinks nothing of packing the 67II and a ton of associated gear to some remote mountaintop in the Japan Alps in the dead of winter to get a picture.
We discussed the performance of digital cameras in very cold environments, one of the reasons he has resisted digital so far, and I amused him when I told him that any temperature my battery can't hack, I can't hack either so it is a non-issue for me.
