Nice! Love the colours. Are you shooting at box speed?
We had a bit of a snowstorm here. Two weeks ago the kids were playing at the waterfront in their t-shirts. At any rate, it was an opportunity to try out my new VM 50/1.5 II (first image) & VM 35/1.4 II. (remaining 4 images) It will all be gone in a day or two I imagine

Thanks! Nice pics!
Yeah, shot at 800.
One reason I do that is with the M7 if you do not shoot at the DX coded speed, a stoooopid annoying blinky light appears continuously in the VF!

Ah yes, I remember you saying that! Which reminds me, I came across a product from the UK that might help out; DX recoding labels
I picked up a P&S that is totally automated, so this was one of the better solutions that I could find to overriding the ISO. It comes to less than a dollar per roll, and since it is aluminum tape it can actually be peeled off carefully & reused. There's a huge variety of ISO's available too. They shipped for cheap, and it came quite quickly. Might help prevent blinky rage!!
The DX readout works w no issues on my M7s, just would prefer it so so so much if they just had manual film speed settings only. Then again I'm one of those weirdos that actually shoots film at box speed.

Well the results speak for themselves.
If you ever do want to divert from box speed, (in my case I was using expired film so wanted to give it a stop or two) I highly recommend the recoder labels. I understand it's not 100% necessary in your case, but I could see myself going Hulkish too if there was never ending blinkage!
