Taken about 8 years ago, but the second one still looks like it's from the late '80s ;) ... The Lloyds Building, London. Kodak T-Max 400

I wish :giggle: ! No, they were lab processed. Much better quality and reliability than I could ever manage myself ;) .

Spent most of the night scanning the negs from my second (recent) roll of Velvia 100, so I thought I'd post a few more here :) . I do love this film - shame that it's so damned expensive :( . Velvia 100, Nikkor MF lenses, Nikon F-301

Yet another from that roll of Velvia 100. It's impressive just how well the highlights are held in check with slide film :) . I can easily imagine them being 'blown' on a DLSR (without the use of HDR processing). Velvia 100, Nikkor MF lenses, Nikon FA

A couple more from my most recent roll .... Velvia 100, Nikkor MF lenses, Nikon FA

Processed this month, but shot 5 years ago :giggle: ... Velvia 100, Nikkor MF lenses, Nikon FA

Hi Nick! Thanks for your input and for raising an interesting point. As the mark only extends to the very beginning of the sprocket holes (and gets thicker towards the outside edges), it does rather suggest that the light leak is coming through the shutter curtain itself and not from the back...

"Launceston Castle" "Spooky Scene" Not sure what you will make of this exposure :thinking: . It was about 30 seconds worth and I tried moving the camera around for the last 10 seconds or so to create a 'ghostly' edge to the lighter areas. I just looks as if the camera was moved up and down...

That model is so cheap these days (compared to the FE, FE2, FM, FA etc.) that I actually bought three of them last month so that I could carry them all round with different lenses on. The first one I bought turned out to have a broken speed dial mechanism, so I bought a faulty one for a tenner...

First roll of film for me in many (well, eight :giggle: ) years. "Gin Palaces" "Illegull Activity" Ilford HP5, Nikkor 80-200mm f/4 & yellow filter.

Thanks for your added input, Trevor. I do actually have a spare door on another F-301 that I bought for parts, so I could use that. Also, I do have a 'universal' light seal kit that I used on some other SLRs years ago, which I could use on the new door. I thought that the problem was maybe...

Thanks John, that makes sense. There is a dent in the film door on the hinge side and although the seals looked OK at first, it could be that the dent is causing a leak. I don't have a photo of the negatives, but the (black) mark only extends as far as the the edge of the frame where the...

Hello all :) ! It's been years since I've posted here, but as I have recently decided to give 35mm film another go, it was only a matter of time before I came back :giggle: . Sadly though, it's not to share a 'wealth of wonderful captures' (I wish) with you, but to pose the question; What's...

But what they do show is that the resolution is much finer than that of my D700 :D . I've been away from photography for a good few years now and have only just seen what Nikon's latest offerings can do. I'm impressed! Some great photos in this thread, too :) .

Thanks to everyone who contributed :). I think that I will go and investigate the club in Tonbridge (in the new year). I've never joined a camera club before and truth be told, am not generally a 'joiner of things', so we'll have to see how it works out ;). On another topic, what's this doing...
