CHRISTMAS SCANNING CONTINUES II; SLIDE FILM
21/12/2009
So carrying on with the mammoth amount of film that I have to scan this Christmas break, I started on 2 year + old roll of slide film. Nothing earth shattering, just some snaps of my friends but I really love the color that one gets from slide film. Seems to be full of colors yet beautifully unsaturated at the same time. Anywho this roll was shot on a Bessa R2a and 35mm 1.7 Ultron if I remember correctly! Next up I’ve started to scan some 6×7 color neg that I shot in the summer whilst travelling around the Czech Republic. Reminder that today and tomorrow useful photography related bits and bobs are ending on Ebay so scroll down to a few posts back to see the items and perhaps sneak in a bid!
If I don’t have time for another update beforehand – Happy Christmas! And thanks for reading the blog, It feels like I’ve got back into the swing of things in terms of more regular updates!

THE START OF CHRISTMAS SCANNING…
16/12/2009
So I about a week ago I got back around 30 rolls of b&w, e6 and c41 negs back from the lab, and my aim was to crack on with scanning them all in over the christmas holidays (what better holiday to be inside scanning than when its cold, wet and dark outside eh?). With that in mind heres some from the first roll – shot on a Konica Hexar AF (great camera) and Trix 400.

CAMERAS FOR SALE…
14/12/2009
I’m going to be selling a bunch of cameras that I don’t use so much any more as I need some money for buying christmas presents! That and I’m really happy with my current set up of cameras and so thought it could be quite satisfying to narrow it down to just the ones that I use the most. Anywho I’ve put the first one up for sale, a nice little Yashica T3 with 35mm 2.8 carl zeiss lens.
