Weekend Photography Plans: What are you up to?

Meet up with the Chicago RFF group, nice guys all - we had about 10-15 cameras between the 5 of us, no dupes.
On the way back to my car - took some street shots, frozen bicycles, cheese-heads (Green Bay Packer fans with Cheese Wedge hats).

Now going to watch the game - from the warmth of my living room
 
Well I went ahead and processed that second reel of Fomopan 100....`cept when I pulled it off the reel I discovered that it was APX400S...oh dear 🙁
 
It's weekend again, and it is a gorgeous weekend here in Pensacola, Florida.
I will be with my family in Bellingrath Gardens (Alabama) some time this weekend.

What will you be up to?
 
I have rolls to finish in my Bessa R, Canonet QL-17 GIII, FED 5, Voigtlander Vitoret, & a Canon T70. Tomorrow will be sunshine & 50+ outside. I'm going to finish off at least 2 of them. Just don't know which 2 yet.😉
 
Film shoot in the morning. It is a studio session so I will likely shoot either my XE7/X700 or F100/N80 combo AND the Mamiya. Some street/documentary style shooting in the afternoon and a digital model shoot in the evening.
 
If I manage anything, it will likely be to shoot either some stills or portraits with my 4x5 Horseman. I really need to see about making a couple slightly larger film sleeves for developing the 4x5 sheets in a Paterson 3 reel Tank tomorrow. I made four a while back and the one is so small it bends the sheet film a bit too tight.
 
I am now regularly switching between MF and 35 on the same outings. I placed this morning two cameras into my camera bag; a Hexar RF with a 50mm rigid Summicron, and a Rollei TLR. A 75mm Lux is also in the bag. We will visit a botanical garden with some friends, so I expect flower photography and some portraits.
 
My old Yashica FXD bit the dust so I`ve just got a replacement in the shape of a Contax 139 Quartz ($70).
I`ll be back shooting with my Yashica 28ml lens and the 50/1.7 Zeiss this weekend .

PS Nothing worth saving from the wrongly dev roll of APX last weekend 🙁
 
Waiting for the mail to bring a Bessa L, of all things, to tide me over while I finally sort out the IIIf (capping at 500 and 1000, dim RF, mysterious light leak).

Finish the first roll in a new-to-me Retina IB. Really enjoying this one, big and non-ergonomic as it is.

Plus, I have a piece of black neoprene that wants to become a half-case for the IIIf.

Can you tell my wife is tied up with work this weekend?

For some reason there is a nice show of Toulouse-Lautrec lithographs in town. I shot a few frames on the way but its very gray today so felt totally uninspired 🙁 and gave up. Did have a pristine Konica C35 turn up this morning £3 with a small box camera 🙂 .

I'm out to burn some Neopan 400 @ 1600 at a pub&bar Blues Festival in my town.

Need to get in the zone though, there's Pixies cruisin' my mind all day long.

M2 with L-Hex 35/2.0 and M3 with Jup-3 both loaded with Neopan.

Rodinal lined up for tomorrow.
 
I took photos from the balcony on the tenth floor of a building at Pensacola Beach. I used 28mm-50mm-75mm lenses for different composition.

Did you make the trip to the botanical garden Raid?

I finished off a roll of 400 color film in the Fed 5 & a roll of gold 200 in the Vitoret. Tomorrow I'll use the Canon T70 to get a bit more familure with it & maybe the Canonet. Problem with the Canonet is, I can't remember if I loaded a 24 count roll of BW400CN or a 36 Roll of XP2. :bang: Also will pick up the film from the Fed 5 & drop off the roll from the Vitoret. Looking forward to seeing results from the Vitoret.
