Hello out there!

Hello everyone!
I am mainly a film guy. I have a very eclectic collection of cameras; many TLR's, some 120 folders, FSU rangefinders, Yashica rangefinders with Mamiya, Pentax (Spotmatic and ME Super) and Nikon slrs. I am partial to Gossen light meters as well. I still process my B-W film. This forum looks to contain of wealth of information which I look forward to using. The ME Super is the only camera I have in my collection that I bought brand new. It is one of my favorites. The Spotmatic is a sentimental pickup that reminds me of my high school days on the yearbook staff.

Welcome, fellow film fan! I suspect you've probably already found them, but just in case -- we have a Film SLR subforum in the cameras section, as well as a Film Processing subforum under Photography. Pentax and non-Pentax welcome -- we'll happily ooh and ahhh over your old toys either way.

Welcome to the forum, should you come across an available LX, I suggest it might be worth a look, they're just a joy to use.

Think of it as your MEs big brother.

My wife and I just returned from a trip to Italy (Rome, Tuscany and Florence) and I will post a link to the photos soon. I did not take my Pentax cameras. I used my Nikon FM for all the 35mm and a Ricohflex Dia and 6X9 Zeiss Nettar for the 120.
