I had a complete Bronica EC-TL outfit that I eventually sold to buy a new computer. Yup, back in those days, a new computer cost as much as a decent medium format outfit. It took me a long time to put that outfit together, and where's the computer now? Long forgotten. But I'll bet whoever owns my old EC-TL is still enjoying the great pictures it delivers. The EC-TL was the last of Bronica's focal plane shutter 6x6 medium format cameras.
Location: Arizona Painted Desert area, just north of Interstate 40. Taken in December, 1989. This photo was taken with an EC-TL and Nikkor 80mm lens. Handheld. Exposure unrecorded, but if we figure the sunny F-16 rule, it was probably 1/250 at f/11 or so. Scanned on an Epson 4990 at 2400 ppi. The only thing I did to the image in post processing was bump up the saturation a little.

Thanks, Attila.
I'm browsing through some of my slide scans right now, and ran across several I took with a Pentax KX during this same trip. Here's one from the Pentax of the same general area. Probably Kodachrome 64, and I don't remember anymore, but the lens was probably an SMC 50mm f/1.4 (K mount) A couple of things I do remember about shooting with that old KX was that the camera itself was a joy to use, and the lenses were absolutely scary sharp, with wonderful contrast.
All I did with this image was bump up the contrast a bit. That wasn't the slide's fault, it was the scanner's. It blew out some of the highlights though. Scanned with an Epson 3170 at 3200 ppi, reduced and converted to jpg for here.

Wow, mesmerizing... I really love desert landscape. Every time I look at it make me wonder, all that years, centuries, millenniums it took to the elements to create such smooth, delicate, colorful shapes.
Cheers, Marty.
