Film is cheap therapy!
Today I decided to give my Olympus Trip 35, that I bought in 1976, another try before I spend $2,500 to buy a Bessa R4M and lenses.
I am so happy I did, because today I got a roll of Ektar 100 and shot it on this clear, beautiful day on the East Coast of the U.S.
Just stopped off at Costco (of all places) to get it developed and scan. I am amazed how clear and sharp the images are and how virtually dead-on the meter is. At the end of the roll, I started adjusting the ISO dial to compensate for back or front lighting.
Amazing.
Now...what should I do with the $2,500?

p.s. I have to find out what the default shutter speed is...so I can work with my hand-held light meter and adjust the ISO for individual images.
