Here is one from snowy and cold Minneapolis. Fujifilm X100S.

MP, 50mm 'cron, Velvia 100. Something is happening with my Velvia shots. I know the film stock I have in the freezer is very and the images don't have that "pop" and saturation as before, but I was still under impression that film kept in Freezer should last without loss of its qualities. Anyway...

@ JDMvW - what kind of lens is that? Thanks.

Arthur, Mirza is a boy :) and he is 2 yrs and 7 moths now :) Don't worry, it's not the first time that he's mistaken for a girl.

I had an opportunity to visit India a few years ago and I was in a similar dilemma. I brought a digital and a film camera with several kinds of film to test and I can say that Velvia rules them all. India (and I’m guessing Nepal) are very colorful countries and when it comes to film choice I found that Velvia 50 and 100 were perfect for capturing those colors. Granted you can achieve a lot with digital too, most likely more than with film, but I found out that my best and favorite images from that trip were shot on film. I brought Velvia 50/100, some discontinued Fuji slide film in ISO400, Portra 400/800 and I have to say that Portra did not please me much at all. I guess it’s good for portraits of white folks in the northern hemisphere but not for such exotic and colorful destinations. You can see the whole set here and most photos have descriptions with film and camera details (India). I am not sure where you’re going to develop and scan slide film here in Minneapolis area. My experience with local labs has not been very satisfactory in the last few years and I mail all my film to a lab on the west coast (I can provide you with the lab detail later if you’re interested). The Twin Cities film scene is in poor condition these days and the labs reflect that too (expensive, inconsistent quality, lack of good scanning options, etc... unless, of course you go with Big Al’s).

Hmmm... that's a good one. I gues it'd be M7, 35 'cron and Acros.

I totally agree with Richard Williams. That's by far the best option out there. Get an X100F and spend the money on some good lenses for your M7.

Don, how do you like Ultrafine Extreme 400 film? Is it comparable to other ISO 400 B&W films? Thanks

<p>Hello, here is my pic for the week. It's a... well, let's just say my bike was stolen last week and I'm really, really bummed out. So if anyone spots one please let me know.
