Hi, everyone:

James, very nice skin tones on the young lads.

Morten, both of your series are excellent, the second set is a beauty.

Ray, great photo of the summer morning light.

Philippe, excellent photo of the sunset.

Sorrymanagement, great timing ad light in the second capture.

Strong currents here with the collision of the flows from the Hudson, East River and Atlantic.

I’m back from my vacation! This year, I cycled through the Scottish Highlands, and I completely fell in love with the place.

While I agree that the FM2(n) is a great camera (and the fact that it can operate without batteries at all shutter-speeds is truly amazing), I prefer the match-needle metering display of the FE2 over the FM2's LEDs. The match-needle is really great for seeing _how far_ off of the suggested exposure you are, not just the direction of the error. I also appreciate the FE2's aperture-priority automatic exposure mode for certain situations, and the fact that it can auto-expose into minutes long exposures is a feature I've often taken advantage of (applying a healthy dose of reciprocity-failure correction of

The match needle metering of the FE/FE2/FM3A is one of my favorite film camera shooting experiences. I wish I would have bought an FM3A back when they were $200/$250/$400, etc. I recommended the FE2 highly over the FM2N for the metering (having owned and shot both and preferring the electric body) but my coworker is thinking very much about batteries not working on top of a mountain. Best of both worlds IMO is to buy an FE2 for most uses and carry an FM up the mountain.

It never hurt in my eyes that the FE series bodies had less of a cult following than the FM2n so they were always a bit cheaper over the last 15 years.

Seeing my FE2 out got the MF NIKKOR itch going so I did pull a 2018 expired roll of Portra 400 out of the freezer. I am working through shooting it over a week or two and then will send it off for development and have something good to share hopefully not long after that.
