The Fuji doesn't feel so large in use, actually, except when my eye is trying to find the vf in all that expanse of metal - it's further up and to the left than I'm used to.
Oh - the other thing that I find funny - here's this big slab of camera with a big fat lens, and the shutter sound is a tiny little 'tic'. Very quiet.
Ultrafine Extreme 400 is a terrible name for a film; but it has good quality and is cheap, which puts it on the "Good Film" list for me. Developed in straight D-76.
Here are some pics from the first roll; I have Ektar in the camera now, just trying to get some decent weather and something to shoot.

I also managed to get a Fujinon SW S 65mm f/8 (!!) with finder for an excellent price, hope to have it in my grubby little hands by the weekend. I'm a happy shopper this month _________________ -Jussi

It's a destrier, not a palfrey, you mounted it well. I find the results from this cheap film rather dazzling, especially for
an ISO 400 film... |

I see it's replete with the appropriate viewfinder, looks like parallax lines in it, too. Looking forward to the wide shots and Ektar. |
