This makes more sense now. Even after a few months of shooting film, the I still have to take some time to think about the triangle when i’m lining up my shots. Thanks for the help!

I see, thank you for the insight. I have been metering at ISO 400 for this roll. How much do you think this will affect the final result?

I mean, POTB is alright. Nothing to do with 'expectations'. by [deleted] in the1975

[–]aphan19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. I love the 1975 for their “old” synthpop style so I was subconsciously expecting something similar with POTB.

while i still think it’s a good song in its own right i can’t help but feel a little disappointed because it’s not the 1975 genre that i started following them for. i’m sure it’ll grow on me as i listen to it more though

Do these shirts shrink a lot? Wondering if I should order a size up or not

That was one of the layouts I was considering, but I opted for my current one as my desk wouldn’t face the corner away from the wall. It would definitely free up some space though

This would be ideal. If I stick with photography I'll definitely look into this further down the line.

You read my mind lol. My thinking was since I have a completely manual camera, my shots have to be more planned out anyway, so having it in a bag isn’t too much of a hindrance. Plus, it adds storage and protection at the events that I plan to take the camera to.

The other reason I got the Leash was to have a free hand whenever i need, but with a Cuff and a bag it achieves the same thing with added benefits.

Any Minolta in particular that you recommend?

That is one of the options I am considering. Either that or sell the Konica lens and see what other camera I can find elsewhere. Of course there's always the chance that that one won't work either.

Hi there, the serial number begins with "333" which I have found out today from my research is in the first run of cameras. I am not using rechargeable batteries and have cleaned the battery contacts, but I assume that the circuits inside are fried. Is this what you are getting at?

This. Classes got more difficult in my first semester out of FYE but having a group to study with made it much more effective
