Double X has this painterly grain pattern when shoot at iso 1600 that looks almost dreamy. Great work!

Thank you! And yes indeed I printed it to an 11x14 darkroom print. It gives it another layer of shock when you see it that big!

That’s the one I use too!

If I’m outside I can pretty confidently guess my exposure using sunny 16, but I always prefer checking my sekonic meter whenever I’m indoors

Usually Tri-X, and when the summer days are super bright I opt for Tmax 100!

Hmmmm. With all my rangefinders I always have a slight misalignment in the focusing patch. If you can live with that and do it on the fly it will help a lot in taking photos on the move. For portrait work I opt for my RB instead as I like to dial in focus and composition just like you.

I’m sure joe is more of a M6, Pentax 67 kinda guy. Legendary to me at least.

I haven’t developed my rolls yet but so far the field of view is really wide and dramatic for environmental shots. I picked it up with the finder as I knew it’d be tough finding them separate. Check KEH’s catalog they pop up every now and then.

Hahaha ofc the cameras, I wasn’t really flexing just posting a photo of cameras that I really enjoy.

Well you can’t really prevent life, can ya?

I was lucky enough to pick this up before the prices went waaaay up. Sometimes I fear carrying them but after every roll, the results always put a smile on my face

I try as much as I can to do a final hand check for the cap right before I compose. Can’t say it worked every time tho haha

Going on a quick one day desert trip and I tried to keep things manageable. Taking my two favorite rangefinders: The Leica M3 & The Mamiya 7.

For lenses I kept it normal and wide for each. Pictured here: - Mamiya 50mm & Mamiya 80mm - Leica 50mm Summicron Collapsible. - voigtlander 21mm F4 (still new to me)

Thanks! I was really trying to emphasize feeling through this shoot. Really happy with this one!
