That would be challenging! Especially if not done routinely

The 4X5 is interesting, it's double sided so no edge grooves that I am so used to for getting the right side in front. Mentally I expect I will feel like something is off when I can't find the grooves by feel inside the dark bag.
The FPP 120 ISO100 is made from medical X-ray film. I also have a 4X5 box of FPP X-ray film which must be a different grade film altogether since the rated ISO is a lot lower.
This is the view looking back from whence we came.
If you zoom in and look at the paths you can see other hill walkers.
We came over the ridge in the top center of the frame.
This is looking south-west from Dollywaggon Pike. The Irish Sea is just beyond those hills.
I would have been happy had this been the only rain we encountered on the trek but things got worse later.
They really are glowing! Super effect.
I was reading that this is due to a lack of anti-ablation backing but couldn't work out if this is something that an x-ray image would benefit from or whether the bidirectional nature of the film was to remove the possibility of mounting the film the wrong way.

Pano time! Irrespective of the number of photos I took with the 50/2 HC they can never reproduce the depth, scale and beauty of the National Park.
Grisdale Tarn was roughly 4 miles into our 14 mile round-trip trek from Grasmere to Helvellyn.

Well it has been turning into a review and I have been enjoying the posts on it.
Talking about fooling around with lenses, no one's gotten hold of the 58 0.95 mirrorless yet? I think Nikon specifically had this thread in mind when they were coming up with that concept Ken, you need an upgrade from your classic Noct?
I guess it’s time to answer! NO! I am intrigued by the Z8 and more so by the (proposed) Zf. The new Nikons/NOCTs aren’t as compact as the the vintage metal and glass.. IMHO they are not as well built either. Now just maybe if Raphael makes me an offer I can’t refuse for mine … well it’ll still be a no!

The only good thing about getting pummeled by horizontal rain was the mountain light after the event.
Here are three similar images taken within a few minutes of each other.

Yes, zooming in to see others on the path helps to put these images in perspective as to the size of this place. I bet that lake is really deep.
According to many sources on the 'net it is about 100ft deep.
The air quality actually hit a low(?) ie unhealthy level the other day due to wildfire smoke. Add in some fog, and it was interesting light. 105 f2.8 AIS Micro with a DX crop and then some.
