G1 & Kodak Ultramax 400

[RT_Panther]

Picked up my G1 about 3 weeks ago & I'm totaly loving it! Have the 45 & 90, just need to save up for the 35....😀

Anyways,
I like the grain of Ultramax 400 (and it saves me a bit of $$ on Portra)

Thanks all! 🙂

G1 green label

My understanding is unless you have a green label G1 the 35 mm won't work until you have the body updated.The 28 mm will work🙂
Nice shots

The green sticker upgrade is also necessary if you want to use the 21mm, unless yours is a really really late version. I also think the 35-70mm zoom needs it to.

Enjoy your G1, the optics are so superb...they're magic in color.

I'm not a really wide shooter so I think the 35/45/90 triad should suffice me well :angel: 🙂

Those lenses and film look like a good combination, especially on the shot of the mission walls and towers.

I agree about the Ultra 400. I don't like the grain but I do like the colors. I got a roll of expired at Walgreens and shot with a 20mm lens; the colors were great:

family picture, family roll, but I like the colors:

Great shot, inspiring me to bring G1+45/2 in my bag everyday.....
This combo make my M stay in dry box for while...🙂

Next, when the bonus come...add 28mm to my bag....:😀

I guess I'm an oddity because I actually like the grain of Ultramax 400 :angel: 🙂
