jim_bielecki1 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Did anyone survive? They came down a bit on the rough side but managed to make it to the bottom of the hill in one piece. They had a lot of laughs and a few sore butts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_bielecki1 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Outstanding action shot Jim! Thanks. I grabbed my FTb, went to a local hill used for sledding, found a good spot, and waited for somebody to come down in front of me. I fired off a whole roll of Tri-X and this pic was the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_Es Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Great to see our photo of the month buzzing along. I've been collecting FL lenses and cleaning them up a bit. Resolution of the year #1: I'm going to get a Canon Pellet in good working condition. Resolution #2: I'm going out with the film Canons (F-1 and too many EFs) and shoot film! Yeah. Meanwhile here are my FL lenses, all 50s: 1.2, 1.8 and 3,5 macro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_Es Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Forget the 19/3.5 Canon FL! I think you've already seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Alex, be sure to look closely at the mirror of any Pellix you’re considering. It’s made of mylar which is soft and easily scratched. Many previous owners tried to clean them ruining the mirror in the process. There are plenty of mint-looking Pellix cameras out there with mirrors that are hopelessly scratched. And a scratched mirror means fuzzy pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Another in my series of sledding/tobogganing pics. This is an older pic, taken with my FTb and on Kodachrome film. Probably with the FD135/3.5. Kids were sliding down the hill on their butts. http://gallery.leica-users.org/d/449786-1/airborn+copy.jpg 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_janes Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Hoping to have some stuff to post up this week. I am struggling with the nearest film processor's work...his scans don't even capture the full image area and my careful cropping! And his prints look like they were rinsed in dirty dishwater. $$-=$%#%+!!! It might be time to stop patronizing this outfit (through the local camera store) and just mail it to North Coast Photo in San Diego. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
