sergio_ortega7 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I scanned my earliest 35mm negatives years ago. Recently, while reviewing the thousands of stored scans, I came across these ancient B&W images, made with the lowly Canon equipment I was using back in those prehistoric times. The Canon TLb was the least expensive body available at the time; I used it for a few years, "upgraded" when I had more money, and eventually gave the camera (it still functioned perfectly after several decades) to my nephew to use in his HS photography classes years ago. Looking at these scanned images I was surprised how well they compare to ones made years later, using much more expensive equipment. The old Canon FD cameras and lenses were/are excellent. Adobe Steps, Sky City, Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico (year unknown). (Canon TLb, Canon 50mm f/1.8, Tri-X, HC110b, Nikon Coolscan V) Adobe Church, Sky City, Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico (year unknown). (Canon TLb, Canon 28mm f/2.8, Tri-X, HC110b, Nikon Coolscan V) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_bielecki1 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Cascade Falls SP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck909 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Cascade Falls SP? No, but you are within 100 miles. BTW, 1st prize is a Yashica FX3, with 50mm 1.8, 28mm 2.8 and a Vivitar 70-210 close focusing. (If you want it) OK, the light meter doesn't work but the shutter speeds seem abput right.

chuck909 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 "abput" ?? "about" seems better. I might be an OK photographer, but typing - forget it. And first prize includes a PL, UVa and Sky all in 52mm The 28 IS a Yashica lens One last thing, I'll ship free to USA only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I've been to west shore of Lake Superior a few times so my knowledge of that area is limited. So, I have no idea where the cascade is. We just came back from a week along the North Shore hiking parts of the Casque Trail from Rossport to Terrace Bay. Unbelievable scenery.
