Thanks, Spyro. Here are three more, two more with the 50mm and one with the Zeiss 85mm f/1.4. All shot on Neopan 400 and scan with an ancient Epson 3200 flatbed scanner.
Thanks! The lens is just awesome, but it's made for 6x9 too (The 670 is obviously 6x7). Though, I'll probably trade it for a Pentax 67 with 90/2.8 later this month.
Makten, I wish I was more proficient metering with my eyes. I am getting better slowly, but for now I use a Sekonic L-308. It's great and fairly small, but it doesn't respond to being dropped well. I generally meter for an area and adjust to minor light changes by eye.

Nope its $1k to develop and scan, $20k to have it developed and scanned.
The first photo is awesome
Ha, true. I guess I could hire my own scanner. I could buy a freaking Imacon for that. But even just development only I'd spend around $6,000. If you know where I can develop 600 rolls of E-6 and B&W for $1000 let me know!
I do my own C-41 and it comes out to under $1/roll for developing, maybe around 60 cents? It depends on how much you want to extend the chemistry. I use it one-shot (Except for bleach) so it's on the higher-end of the cost scale.
$2k will get a nice Nikon 9000 scanner if you are into scanning.
E6: I am not sure of the costs of that. B&W is cheaper than color (C-41) I'd say, probably by a factor of 3 or more.
I thought I had a film stash but that puts mine to shame. I do have a fair stash of some out of production stuff like Tech Pan, Ektar 25, HIE, EIR and such.
Lately for color all I have been shooting is Ektar 100.
I have a small Japanese house. There's no way I could develop all this film at my house. I'd rather just pay for it to be done anyway. The Coolsan 9000 might be nice, but it's not anywhere near as quick and nice as an Imacon. I suspected I'd be frustrated with it in under a week.
Great shots as usual. I especially like the card players.
