Not very far from my life between the ages of 13 and 18, though when mom rented out the downstairs apartment, I lot my darkroom and didn't shoot nearly as much. Mind you I'd split between plus-X and Pan-F film, and I did have a 2x TC for my SRT-101, but one camera, one lens was pretty much how I shot for years. Occasionally I'd borrow Dad's spotmatic and Series-1 70-210, but it was almost exclusively the SRT-101 and 58/1.4. > > -- > M.
