At dawn, Baltimore, with the Ricoh Diacord. I used a Gossen Luna Lux meter. Wink at least some of the time.

Color print film seems 'thicker' than slide - colors are somehow more dense, in the sense of clogging pores or something Rolling Eyes

Thanks Bill again for the Provia - how far out of date was that stuff Wink didn't seem to hurt it at all.

Well the last time I used slide film was about 30 years ago, so I'm not an expert on what's available now....I'm just the messenger from info on another forum.

I like so much the Fuji provia F100 and the Kodak G100. I can't find the velvia 100.

#3 for me, love the blue sky and the distant skyline, perhaps I would crop off the iron tower on the left?
Would also like to see it bigger.

Excellent. I must give this film a try.

Omega right now.

Your wish = my command Laughing



Thanks for the comments - the Ricoh lens seems sharper than the Yashica's, though it's more likely a function of contrast than resolution.

I have two rolls of 120 slide film (and a roll of neg film) at Dwayne's, hope to get them back by the weekend.
