[gb hill]

Haven't been out in a while with the Bessa R so think I'll take a drive to Old Salem. Have a roll of Arista 100 loaded.

A couple of days ago, while truing to reorganize my studio I found a couple of forgotten Fuji FP 100 films. I think I'll give a try with my Land Camera 340...hopefully everything will work...

Hi Robert,
I suddenly am interested in Polaroid Lan cameras. In particular, I am looking for a clean Model 250 with replaced battery pack for batteries that are currently available.

No, she is a wonderful person.

Cracking open a Nikon zoom lens...seeing why it's not zooming smoothly...

Update: Found a screw that was backing out inside the lens...checked & tightened what I could see and get to and closed it up...so much smoother and the end group so much tighter...most likely loose the whole time I've had this lens...

What have you been doing photographically this weekend? We have Labor Day Weekend in the USA, so today is a holiday. I will try to take photos of some crabs in their habitat at Pensacola Beach.

 

[burancap]

Nothing. A few random photos at meals with the XA1 and 27. That is it!

I used the weekend to drive near Florence, Tuscany, in Italy. There I will spend a week and shoot accordingly.

Making some examples with a Zeiss Softar filter on Minolta lenses, and the effects of aperture (aperture matters ! ), and what works and what does not work:

Went to two local parks, and an olde mill (which makes ice cream) with my wife. Shot two more rolls with my new (to me) Plaubel Makina III.

Just cut the grass (HOT!) and planning on being lazy for the rest of the day. Going to a BBQ later at her Mom & Dad's.

Nothing this weekend..just messing with a new to me Nikon 24-85mm 3.5/4.5G-ED AF-S lens...
I had to climb inside this one to tighten up a few loose screws and blow out some lint in there...At first I wasn't too impressed with the sharpness but then I changed the camera to Dynamic Area focusing and that made a big difference...
Next weekend I might be shooting a Birthday Party for a friend's mom...

 

[raid]

It is weekend! I will try to take some photos even if it rains. My camera bag from last weekend still has in it the two M 4/3 cameras and Canon FD 7.5mm and 200mm lenses.

What are you planning to do?

 

[Nokton48]

Took some photos in the rain of our local Macedonian church this morning.
Minolta SRT100 35mm F1.8 MC Rokkor Eastman 5222 XX film.
Unfortunately the outdoor festival they had planned is not going on, due to the rain.

 

[nikon_sam]

Got home about an hour ago...shot a birthday party for a good friend's mom...
Plenty of very nice scenery, some alcohol and lots of dancing...made for a very fun evening...I had a blast...
I've got everything charging right now...later today I have to shoot a convention planning meeting...

 

[raid]

It is Saturday in the USA. I took quite a few photos yesterday at Destin Beach, Florida. I used my recently purchased Zeiss Biogon 35/2 ZM on the M9, and I had the Pentax SMC Takumar 50/1.4 in M mount.

What are you doping this weekend?

Sunday night here now! My photo association was been ask to document a meeting of historical motorcycles. I went with my wife and other friends, very interesting if you like roaring engines, petrol, dust, exhaust smoke in the air.
Wife and friends did it in a reportage style. I had a different approach using my Leica x1 for a few man-motorcycle portraits (x1 too slow for reportage in a crowded place). Than I decided to take some freedom and went for a more creative approach: Polaroid with that Black & Yellow film from Impossible. Not all the shot came out as desired, the film is big contrast and we had a real sunny day which made things more difficult. But the ones which came out good are really interesting, of course just In My Humble Opinion.
Satisfied but it was an heavy day!

Just a handful of walkabout snaps with another X100. I can't seem to get away from them.

 

[Mark A. Fisher]

Working on some digital negatives to be used for Van Dyke Brown and Cyanotype prints...

 

[Mr_Flibble]

Shot 20 sheets of 4x5" with an Anniversary Speed Graphic over the weekend, as well as two rolls of 35mm with a Contax II.

Not sure which cameras I'll be using next weekend at the Dutch Living History Festival 🙂
