Very well.



For those who care:
SP, Elicar 35/2.8, Tri-X, lab dev, V600 scan


Nice one, and yes, I care. My first SLR way back when was a SP and despite the number of cameras I've used since then, there is something special about it.

Gear has an undeniable technical, historic and even aesthetic interest, but I'm personally not too interested in the collector angle.

Me neither. I don't consider myself to be a collector, but I have lots of cameras. I guess I don't consider myself to be a collector because I don't collect collectible cameras. I collect cameras that are first and foremost "user" cameras. So, does that make me a collector? Maybe, but with some 40-odd SLRs, I still don't feel like a collector because I use 'em. I don't let them just sit on the shelf and look pretty.

When framing this shot I was hoping for Robert De Niro to would walk by, but, unfortunately, no such luck

My first roll of film in 20 years

I haven't shot film in about 20 years, but I recently bought a SuperProgram and have started shooting it again. Right now, I'm just playing around, and I'm building up to doing my own developing and maybe printing, but for now, this roll was developed and scanned by TheDarkroom.

In both images the lens was an A28/2.8, the film was TMAX400.

I've also been using an iPhone app called PhotoExif that lets you record all your setting and apply them to the image after the fact. It seems to work fairly well, so the EXIF data should be accurate..
