Very nice indeed. Ektar certainly gives a warm glow to the colours.
What were your feelings about using the camera and lens?

I was surprised how easy it is to fosus manual. With my digital cameras is that not always so easy.
The lens is build great, just as one would expect of the lenses from the 70s.

Manual focus on an old SLR is so easy isn't it? Those old viewfinders were so big and bright.
Nice set btw. |

Whoa! I thought the last pic in your first post was interesting, and then you pop this one! The colors are superb, and Ektar is cheaper than mild hallucinogens
