Well, you obviously remembered how to do it, this is superb work. The quality of Medium format really shines through in these pictures. Well done, I hope you catch the bug and shoot more film. Smile

Nice, #2 is very nice.

Is that grain elevator still active or abandoned?

i believe the elevator is still in business, you had to take the photo quickly about 10sec, before you froze your fingers, i had to bring up the shadows in 2 i was shooting into the sun, even though it was foggy.

There's a lot of really nice MF camera out there, and the prices they fetch now are really attractive. I like the baby Graphics in 2x3. Today I shot a 1952 Kershaw 450 6x6 folder I bought for 99p. Everything works fully, the roll is hanging to dry now, it only has a triplet lens but judging by the samples I have seen, should be a good one.

I love that last train shot, nice toning too.

what happened i just got to the station and the engine pulled out the last shot is the end of the train, i have seen the baby graphics, but i have somewhat have that already with 6x4.5 6x6 6x9, i had 5x7 and 4x5 years ago, if you go that size you then have to buy a different scanner to accommodate the bigger films, we are getting a epson v750 at work so i can try that, all my scanning so far has been with a canon 9000f so far it has worked quite well, have been reading on rangefinder forum with interest on the new Plustek 120, there seems to be some teething problems Rolling Eyes

Yes, scanning is always the bottleneck for film use. I have an old Epson 3200 that works fine for medium format. For 35mm I have a Plustek 7600i which is superb. Sad to hear the 120 version has some issues, I dream of owning one some day as the jump in quality from flatbed to Plustek for scanning 35mm was rather large.
