March is? Nikon RF Month!

Must have been fate. I just loaded 35 rolls of Orwo UN 54 in Nikon cassettes a couple of evenings ago. Need to finish up a couple of rolls in the M2's - then it is Nikon time. I like these 3-4 week projects with Nikon's. Brings home how damned good they are. All I have to do is figure out how to load images here. Something changed a while ago and I can't get them on RFf. I have to decide what lenses to use too.
 
Only usable image from roll I shot this week.

S3 + 3.5 f.18 + trix@1200

I fully expect a snap of your kit Tom!

So we can all salivate and wimper in envy!

I've got TriX loaded in the SP, waiting for my new dark box to arrive so I can load up more GAF. Broke down my 50/1.4 for a much needed cleaning, and now I have an adapter, it's mounted on my M8.

I'll try and post some photos.

Chris, there is indeed a small button on the BC-5 (rear of the reflector, top left) that, when depressed, ejects the bulb. Works almost too well in this case, I can see myself pressing it by mistake without being prepared to hold on to the bulb that's sent flying off :)

The problem is every year there are more lenses and cameras to cycle through, took two months last time, I must have a plan, I must have a plan, I must ............

Just copy the Flickr BB code to your post, Tom. Click the curved arrow icon to the lower right of your displayed photo, and it will give you the choice of what type of link you want (Share, Embed, E-Mail, BB Code), and what size you want it to display at. I usually pick the Medium 640 (on the long side). Then just copy the code, and paste here.

Just got an SP (thanks to Al), then a 35/1.8, and this morning a black 135/3.5 (wow is that thing small). So the tri-x is in but just tests to check the 35 as it has gunk inside - off to Horst this week. Then some images.
unoh7 - is that a chrome 135/3.5? Also what Nikon RF to Sony mount are you using? No shots from me by the way;)
 
A quick snap from my M8 with the new Amedeo Adapter and 50/1.4 S.
