Dave very nicely offered to unload reload the van. I think he probably got
to see more

And don't forget that lens I spotted in the queue, the one that will be
polluting your shop floor for the next several months until you can find
someone who wants it :) I can't believe I was shopping in the dealers
queue even

Sounds like you had a good time at Photographica. Out of interest, how
did you manage to hawk your RB67? I presume Peter allowed you a corner of
his stand? Or did you wander around wearing a gaberdeen mac with a large

Hi Dave,
Nice tale re the personal touch with the Mamiya. Nice one Peter, too, for
being so hospitable - - what was his cut? Just kidding :-)
The best times to hang around those shows are surely when they're setting
up (that's when the dealers stalk), and the first half hour on opening

I'm quite fond of E100SW and before I came over to the UK I was starting to
get into Provia 100F a little. Velvia is not my cup of tea as the colours

I don't care much about the green color cast in the RSX.
Eek! That's not your RSX, that's a warning sign at your lab: either the
colour developer time was too short or the temperature too low, or the
colour developer is close to exhaustion,
We may never make into the woods.

Hey Cotty, I had one of those once!
In Australia, the Charger was thought of as pretty much a rev-head's
car, but my mother loved hers (mind you, the last time she drove one of
my cars, I watched cruising at 130 in a 100 zone with some trepidation,
so she's no little old grey-haired lady!).

Ektachrome 100S produces excellent images with saturated but believable
color. And it scans very well.
Thanks Paul. In 1981 I remember using Ektachrome 64 on an RB67 and being
pretty
I'm not sure if Ektachrome 64 is still available. But you're right: it
had a distinctive blue cast. Ektachrome 100S is totally different. And
if you want a slight warm cast, Ektachrome 100WS provides a bit of that.
It makes it look like everything was shot an hour before sunset, which
can be good
Hi Cotty,
It was a 6x7 with the 105/2.4 lens. Just a quicky. I couldn't park there
for very long, so I took a meter reading down the block with an incident
meter. Parked the car, hopped out, and shot. The yellow curbs are
reflecting in the grille. I don't like that. I'm going to go back and do
it
Thanks Shel,
I picked up a roll of EPP. I'll give it a try. In my former life back in
the late seventies, when I was shooting a lot of transparency film in my
Mamiya TLR, I used EPS, which was an ISO 200 film. I was quite fond of
that. I suspect EPP is a similar formulation. The woman in the

Cheers Bruce. I agree with your sentiments exactly. Especially the
'insurance' shots...
Best,

You had me chuckling as you related your experience. I have had a
similar experience with MF. There certainly does seem to be a mindset
difference when you use the bigger camera. I enjoy it
Glad everything worked out Cotty.I know what
you mean about setting up to shot a scene.I am
only using a lowly Y-M with fixed lens,but i approach
my MF shooting a bit different.Seem to take more
time and think the shot out more.I just got back
a roll of Agfa rsx slide film,i also did a wow.
