hi y'all!

i'm sebastian from germany, eagerly waiting for RD-1s becoming available at my local photo store. coming from nikon's D200, i missed the lacking of a mirror, so i sold all DSLR gear.
also, this will make useable some old LTR and M mount lenses waiting in a shelf. it's a shame i no longer use the analogue gear any longer, but i never liked darkroom work, and i learned to detest scanning with my dimage scan dual ...

looking forward!
see you later
sebastian

thanks for the nice welcome.

i don't do no scanning any longer - no more SCSI support on my PC. and negative cleaning? forget it. the more you clean, the more dust will settle (probably an electrostatical issue). just to mention: i was toooooooo lazy at that time to remove the dust from the files. sorry if it harms your aesthetical reception - i must confess, i don't care that much for it. take it for authenticity :-D please.

cheers,
sebastian

I don't mind some dust - as you say, it adds to the authenticity 🙂

Welcome Sebastian, looking forward to your work with the RD-1s 🙂

 

[sebastel]

need to wait at least 5 more weeks ... my employer sends me abroad.
anyway, going to catch many new impressions with my carry-it-everywhere lumix LX1.
so, please be patient while i share my insights only, instead of my sights (views) 🙂

later!
cheers, sebastian
