scratch my niche
The old thread by Sirius on the West Coast Trail Vancouver Island, with great photos from Sirius and Sockeyed, suggests to me that we ought to have a show and tell about backpacking with RFs.
This is a thread for photos taken in the backcountry. Human-powered sports only, please!
I've done a lot of backpacking, but most of it before RF photography found me. I took the Bessa T and the ZM C Biogon 21/4.5 and ZM Planar 50/2 on a trip to Mt Xiangyang (3,602m) and Jiaming Lake a few months ago. The Bessa T is a great camera for backpacking: not expensive, it is lightweight for a film RF, has metering, shutter fires even when the batteries die, and takes M mount lenses!

not sure what exactly means backpacking in this case! I have a large backpack and NO plastic flying luggage. I always use backpack wherever i go, be it for work or holiday, be it be it Foz do Iguassu or just visiting my parents.
If i took a cheap heli tour above waterfalls but otherwise, i went there with a backpack, and i used a fujica gw690ii, does that count?
