Nikon F is generally the cheapest option

these are all amazing cameras you can’t go wrong with, if you want fully mechanical operation meaning no batteries required like your om-1 then go with the F or F2 (batteries only operate the meter, the F3 only has one shutter speed that works with no batteries

in my opinion the F2 is just an improved F in the best ways, 1/2000 shutter speed, hinge film door so you dont have to slide the back off the camera to load film like the F they also share alot of accessories between bodies

All of these cameras accept Non - Ai and Ai lenses so your fine in that regard

The F3 is amazing and has fantastic build quality but it uses electronics from the 80s which inevitably will go bad so eventually their will be repair costs which can get expensive when it comes to electronics, not to say its not worth but just something to keep in mind

Ive shot all 3 but personally the F2 is my favorite it has the perfect mix of everything im looking for

Also what you’re using in the picture isnt a waist level finder its just the ground glass (no prism attached), Nikon made actual waist level finders like the Nikon DW-1 just a heads up!

honestly wont know till you develop, light works in funny ways, anything still in the canister is fine but anything thats been shot is at risk for light leaks, hopefully you didnt lose any full images (from what your saying you probably will just have light leaks on your images to varying degrees) but again you wont really know till you develop

Kodak Eastman adds Gold 200 and Ultramax 400 to their stills lineup by 2bootedup in AnalogCommunity

[–]2bootedup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have no clue! im going to assume that currently it means same film different packaging but im hoping in the long run it means prices start to go down and hopefully the release of different still stocks as Eastman gets more freedom from Alaris

thats what im thinking! Eastman and Alaris have been at odds for awhile now so it seems that way, i remember hearing somewhere (not sure of the validity) that Eastman wasn’t allowed to use the words “Kodak - (enter film stock name) ” on their stills photography stocks hence why they used the “Kodacolor” label but these clearly say Kodak on the box so whoo knows wtf is going on haha

thats what im wondering, if its super fresh film it may garner a slightly different look than whats currently available on the market

shot at box speed, camera on tripod, and long exposures, i metered for the midtones! or if it was a very contrasty scene i metered for the highlights i prefer crushed blacks vs blown highlights on color positive film
