first scans with my M3 and 50mm Elmar

[Jasper Street]

Hi everyone,

I'm going to try to post a couple of my first scans taken with my new-ish M3 and 50mm f2.8 Elmar.

A few months ago, I posted a question about high-contrast lenses and film. Well, these were both made with the same lens and same film, so I guess I have my answer.

I'm a beginner with RF cameras, so advice/comments are welcome!

The pictures aren't showing up for me.

I wonder why? It's my first attempt at posting photos, and the photos appear in the post on my computer but. . . I don't know what I'm doing wrong if you can't see them. I'll try to figure it out. . .

Where do you have the images hosted?

To make them display in the post you need to enclose the url with the img tags, like this

[ i m g ]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3068/3725118775_ab7dd270de.jpg[ / i m g]"

You need to enter it without the spaces in the tags, then you get this:

Gotta hand it to you, ChrisN.

I was just, umm, lending a hand.

I've put four of the least-crappy early shots from my M3 on here.

Take a look if you have a second!

Good pics, and you can link, just try it again, like this: (I linked your pics for example)

Jasper - to download, click on the images "all sizes", then scroll down to the second option box, which contains the image's URL. Copy the contents, and then paste here. DON'T USE OPTION 1.
I like the "Mina" shot...

Here's one from my M3 and Elmar 50/2.8. Sorry to ruin the party with color, but at least it's Kodachrome.

Old 2.8 elmar, or the new one?
