Leica M3 DS, Summaron 35 3.5, Lomo Fantome 6, DF 96 Monobath.

Fantome film essentially looks grainless in DF96.

I love Ektar (fine details and saturated colours) - how'd the red rocks come up? I'm surprised you chose to go mono (I'm currently quite smitten with desert plateau scenes - living vicariously through others).

I often get frustrated with color film. I struggle with it to get the balance of tones that I saw when I took the exposure.
Then, there is the issue of everyone having a monitor that interprets colors that may not represent mine. And finally,
I go way back to when Tri-X film was $.69 a roll and I did all my own development to save costs. Yes, an old-timer
that loves the look of black and white film photographs and the smell of fixer! (I still do all my black and white film processing)

I find the thing that absolutely destroys tonal information in digitized color film is over-saturation.

Elevation change is great on panos. I'm always on the lookout for pano compositions. My GX617 has a removable viewfinder for the focal length and I'll often carry that around looking through it to help me.

I still have some Plus-X in the freezer. I thought I'd find an old shot to scan to give it another look. I guess poor Plus-X just never received enough love to be saved from the discontinued list.

Thank you ! I find the viewfinder of the Noblex very well made, the only drawback is that there are no levels for vertical shots
