A few shots from the Ocean Explorer offshore museum on Galveston Island, TX. Pentax 67II, Fuji Pro 400H film. Kindly forgive the slight cast, they don't look like this on my iMac.
Brought back some memories of a former life seeing this old tub.
Here is a blatant advert but potentially helpful to members of this forum: I am selling three as-new Nikon film bodies: FM2n, F3T, and F100. As in 1 roll of film shot with a brand new camera. For each one.
I have listed the FM2n, but can't list another for 8 hours. Too many photos for one big listing, so I will list one every 8 hours. Duh!
The F3T and F100 are in identical shape to the FM2n listed. Send me a PM if interested. They are also on the Bay.
Don't want to offend anyone here, but these are film cameras...
Here's a few more. The last one is taken with my Sinar with a 6x7 back on Portra 400. The lens is an 8 1/2" Caltar that's convertible. I took the rear element off, making it a 14" lens. It's a test shot of my driveway.
That 50 Cron / Portra 800 combination looks great! I am seriously considering selling my M240 and getting an M3 or 4 (Haven't seen the right one yet). Taking my time though, having too much fun with this Hassy, here the 350/F4 Acros/D76

Thanks! I was really pleasantly surprised by the look. It's funny, it makes me want to grab another film body so I can have both B&W and color loaded. I also want to do a test between shooting with Portra 400 and Ilford XP2. I'm sure the XP2 would give a finer grained image with better gradation, but I like the ability to shoot color and use software filters to adjust tonality.
I have a Mamiya C33 and C330 and I'm about to send my lenses off for CLA. The lube is sticky and you have to fire them several times to loosen them up. My favorite lens is the 105. Wide open it gives that wonderful bokeh that folks shooting with toy cameras (35mm) dream about.
The Hassy looks great! I've shot with them before and would love to pick up one now.

I shot my first roll of film in more than 15 years. This is from a test roll in a Minolta Autocord (circa 1958) with Kodak Portra 400.
Congrats!! Now, get out there and buy some more film!
I got some expired (5/2007) Kodak E100G slide film in 220 format with a P67II and wanted to see what it looked like. Went up to the Cavanaught Flight Museum in Addison TX. Kodak recommends 80A filtration and a 25 speed for artificial light, so that's what I did. It kinda worked and kinda didn't to my eye. The only shot not filtered is the Mustang outside being readied to do a flyover somewhere.

Best expired 4X5 film I've ever shot, no question.
