Some more from my Tokyo trip with forum member David. This time with some iso250 film that David kindly gave. I can't remember what it was called though.











Thanks for looking.

Eastman Kodak Double XX (Motion Picture Film 5222).

Your 5222 shots turned out better than my 250D shots did, that's for sure. I have most of the images digitized, but I haven't edited the Japan ones yet.

Very nice! I like the fine, yet visible grain that film has. It adds a sort of 60s/70s look to things.

When I was in Japan, I saw on two different occasions where workers in taller buildings were practicing their fire/earthquake/safety drills. Complete with bullhorns. I'm sure that's what the fellow in the first photograph was doing. He was probably one of the safety marshalls. The Japanese take these safety drills very seriously.

Continued good job, Yebisu. As always I'd like to see more!

Bullhorn dude was one of Japan's finest. Yebisu and I were there for the festival in Askusa and he was telling people where to go and not to go. At least I think he was. I don't actually speak any Japanese.

#4 does it for me -- classic tone and grain, there's tangibility to the materials of capture

That's right, Massive megaphone guy was security for the firework festival. He must have been busy when the storm kicked in!
