There were some nice areas when i was driving up to and back from Madawaska
this past wekend,however very little red this year.Lots of yellow and gold though.
Big winds on Sundays rain blew a lot off the trees.
I received my 2 rolls of MF E100vs back last night,and to add a comment re the slide vs
film
thread of last week,Peter is correct in the latitude comments.
The best exposures were from the incident and spot meter readings.Those readings from
the
on board meter of the 6x7 were under exposed by several stops,as i thought they
might,but
i
wanted to experiment a bit to see what gave the best results.
Did manage a few which would be PUG and or general list worthy.:-)
I thought i may have ruined the one shot i was hoping would turn out but all is
mostly ok.
One thing i still have problems with the 6x7 is film advance at the rolls end.
I have a tendency to not roll the film to its end right a way and twice it has cost me
a
shot
or two.This time i started to advance,stopped and drove on.When i opened the
camera,there
was the
dreaded paper over the shutter still.
Only lost one end of shot 10 and a bit on the bottom of shot 9.Its cropable<vbg>
Colours look great on the E100vs BTW
