So I just rang Jessops in Leeds and they can do 1 hour processing on Saturday for C41 so its shoot, hand in then a few in Mr Foleys :-)

collect with fingers crossed :-)

Terrific. Let's have your feedback and pictures please.
 
Well @trevorbray just having a play now and initial thoughts are very nice, everything sounds wonderfull, the slow shutter speeds which were trashed now sound so sweet, the nicest clockwork noises.
the light metre is back to being very usable indeed, still the tiniest twitch of needle when switching shutter speeds, but thats being picky. just loading some agfa 200 and mounting my 50mm F1.4 :-)
 
Would look great with a 55mm f1.2 attached to the front :naughty:

Need advice on this sucker
 
h'mm well if the camera has only one central contact on the hotshoe then the flash probably works by sensor for exposure, so on the back there is probably a table to set Fno and appx range..and away you go...all quite crude compared to the T90 that has five contacts on the hot shoe :exit:
 
It only has centre spot on hotshoe and table on rear

Has it a sensor on the flash? If so groups shots or any subject up to about 15 ft for 100 asa usually works with aperture at F5.6 i.e. if it's fairly powerful otherwise its setting to the table at the back.

Sounds better than with digital, you can have a drink whilst the excitement builds to look forward for the results :thumbs:
