The main problem I have shooting slide with a pre-war camera tends to be my own lack of thought - not adjusting for back lighting for example, or camera shake. Otherwise the Bessa 66 Skopar does better than me

Great Jussi! I love the colours in the first one, although there seems to be a red cast?

Scanner or expired film
They are great cameras, how nice from a 70 yrs old camera isn't it ? Thanks for sharing!

Yes, this is the roll, and I don't think it was expired. The camera on the other hand is definitely past its sell by date

Probably neither, I set white to a white stripe on the shady wall, probably should have looked for the white garbage can out front.

The colors look very real, very neutral. I'm thinking this might be my
replacement for Provia, next time I order from Freestyle or Coststyle, as
it's getting to be!  |

Freestyle costs more than B&H for color film, but costs less for b&w, not even counting the re-badged stuff.
Thanks for the Astia again, I'd been very curious about it. My epson software scans had color balance issues till I had my DUH moment - borrowing an idea from VueScan, I realized I could set neutral to film base, and that sorted out the balancing issues.

I'm getting 20 rolls of Astia 120 tomorrow (and 20 rolls of Provia 400)  I do like the slight accent that the film puts on the red/magentas. Works especially great in the fall me thinks.
