Misc XP2 shots from my S4

Roll of XP2, mostly Nikkor 28/3.5 & CV 21/4, had a bit of ... trouble ... with a couple of the exposures... 😱 🤣 (yeah, lens cap... whoops!) But that's what I get for being spoiled by modern DSLR convenience like TTL view finders! 😎

I have always liked XP2 and though I now pretty much only shoot digital its my go to BW film if ever I am tempted to shoot film again. I love its flexibility, its tonality and its fine grain. I always shot it at 200 ASA, which I felt was its sweet spot for the fine granularity and nice tonal transitions.

I will travel to the East Coast. I will have the former "shelf queen" Contax II with me loaded with XP-2 as it seems the best answer to mono film these days. At least for me. And a light meter so that my mediocrity is well exposed. ;o)

It's a thrill to have this old darling now that she is up on her feet again. I know she has not lost a step. And Oleg showed her all the new dance steps, so she is going to dance and kick up her heels. I will try to keep up with the old darling.

I should give that EI a try 👍 after I get done with the roll of Fuji 400 color in her right now.
