Nice and clean. I am trying Ektar 100 now, on my latest MX /1.7. The 400 film has too much noise in shade areas for my tastes. Not easy to better the Kodachrome pictures I took half a century ago. Anyway I would be happy if they looked as good as this one above, quality wise.

Ektar is pretty amazing film (IMO). Scanning it can be a bit tricky though. I just made a custom profile for it in Epson Scan, and finally feel like I ought to start getting consistent results.

Hi!
Last week I was on holiday in Sarajevo visiting my grandma and other relatives and I have some photos to share.
Most photos are from Sarajevo but some are from Bihać and some are taken on the road through Bosnia.

Camera is K1000, lenses are A24 2.8 & K135 2.5 and films are Fuji superia 200 & Kodak Portra 160

my grandma (she's 90 years old)
Love seeing the other side of the world! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Kris.
Beautiful magnolias which are common here in the South and using my favorite combination Ektar 100 & LX!

Especially in medium format, using good lens and the shot is well executed!

Hello!
Two days ago K2 arrived from US I have bought it from one member on this forum.
So, yesterday after work I decided to take a walk and test my new camera (which is in excellent condition).
Film is Solution VX 200 (expired 2012.)

How do you like the K2?
It's probably my favorite manual focus K mount body. Looks like yours is working well.

You would like it around here. There is a lot of rock climbing in the general region and even right in town. Ever hear of Smith Rocks? It is less than two hours drive.

Congrats on some amazing images. What exactly was your "scanning" technique? Can you share it? I am desperate.

Nice scene, and I like the full depth of focus allowing one to take in the whole view.
