Just returned from a two week trip to southern Turkey, and after much pondering, took my Fuji S3 dslr, to save the hassle of xray machines, processing, etc. The resulting jpeg's (about 300!) are technically - if not aesthetically! - exellent, but somehow,- ( much to the dismay of my long-suffering spouse!) - fail to exite me a lot, as for most of the trip I wished for my Bessa or Fed outfits, and a few rolls of FP4 !!. Next vacation, to hell with the condascending remarks, and looks from other snappers, and the dynasaur tag!,- it'll be a r/f camera adorning my ancient, suntanned, torso!!. Now to a question,- permanantly residing in the glove box of my car, is a Zarya, with I26m,-& I love this simple camera for 'opportunist'-type shots. The 26m, at times seems a little 'soft', and I'm wondering if I will see any improvement from a I61l/d, that I have just ordered ?,- it's reputedly an improved design ?, I really like the results from a Fed 3.5 Elmar, collapsible, copy, but don't like the hassle of removing the shade and/or filter to adjust the diaphragm!!
