We have several 35mm Pentax bodies and lenses that we still wheel out every now and then. Also a rather good Rollei enlarger, which we were using just the other day.

It's a different way of doing things.
With digital I snap away taking multiple shots from different angles etc then throw away the 90% that I don't want to keep, and maybe edit some of the keepers.
Back in the film days I used to line up the shots carefully, and think about what I was doing before taking maybe 2 or 3 shots. No editing so it had to be right first time.
Of course it was a money thing too - cost of film, developing, then printing made the cost-per-print way higher in those days.

Andre, do you still have any enthusiasm for trains, or railways in general ?
I've had conversations with an old mate of yours, Rudolph Hucker, he's on the lookout for you.  |

I've had conversations with an old mate of yours, Rudolph Hucker, he's on the lookout for you. I might buy your Canon from you. Or pick up some old kit again. I have suddenly become aware of this film photography revival from all sides. I think first awareness was my step-son in Florida saying to his mum that what he really wanted was a film camera - which seemed bizarre. I ditched my Olympus SLR kit probably 10 years ago now, when the first Nikon DSLR I had was "almost there". I loved fannying around in dark rooms as much as the quality of product, but - I dunno. This may be one analogue revival I don't join. I am starting to get to grips with digital, and its not that shabby. Maybe the kids will influence me. |

After the Zenith, a Minolta X-300 was my trusty companion for many years.  |
