I used to use the cupboard under the stairs, I don't fancy doing it in the bilge..... :wacko: Ugh!
It's those mechanical cameras that I love, it's a bit like the love of Swiss quality watches..ironically I wear a Seiko battery watch. B) Love film cameras, use digital.
No battery in the Linhoff either, and the Nikon FM3a only needs a battery for metering or if you use it in aperture priority.
The tempter would certainly be the Linhoff 4X5" plate camera, because there you will get a serious increase in IQ, actually 5X4" is a 14.93 times greater surface area., that's not an insignificant amount, you wouldn't even need that great a scanner to get very good quality.
Just for kicks and giggles I'll find out how much plate film is!
As for 35mm well I think we all know how it compares to a FF sensor, especially a 36 Mps one.
You have to like the look!
Just had a quick squint.....Box of 10 colour negative around $45 Box of 10 B+W about $35......less than I thought,
then you have to load them in the carrier, then I'd have to buy a bunch of those...and the beat goes on!
I would always pay a lab these days and get them to scan the negs..it's not like when you go out birding and come home with 200-300 shots.
Getting sucked in again....reality check...no stop, I'll keep polishing it, I now realize that someone has already cleaned the lenses, it's the etched coating I can see..it's not that bad actually!
