More photo news

Pictures from the 3rd San Francisco LomoCrawl are available here. York photo took their time, but for less than $40 for 7 (!) rolls development plus PhotoCDs, I’m not complaining…
I’ve shot a couple of rolls now through my Canon EOS Rebel 2000, and I love it. The metering is great, much better than the [...]


Don’t rewind until 36!

Dang! I’ve been buying 36 exposure pro film lately, but I’m so used to re-winding at 25 or so (most quickie labs don’t process more than 25 or so prints off a roll) that I just rewound a roll of NPZ 400 at 24. Blah! Pay the extra money for a longer roll, then [...]

The cost broke down to being roughly half lens and half body, which I wanted. I’m not that concerned about some of the high-end features; I wanted a light body with partial metering, multiple program modes, and auto-focus. Later [...]

I have a small collection of lenses for my AE-1 - a 28/2.8, 50/1.8, 35-80/4-5.6, 70-210/4-5./6, and was contemplating which ones to bring along with me. In the end, I hit the road with one lens, the prime 50/1.8 [...]
