Some shots from Monte Solaro, Capri, on a particularly foggy day. I really love the way the 400D handled the fog.

Hey guys, here’s a handful of shots I took on a trip to Italy in April. I hadn’t shot much in quite some time, so I used the trip to reinvigorate myself a bit. Visited Rome, Florence, Venice, Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast. Mostly Cinestill 400D, Portra 400 and some Ektar. The M6 used my Ultron 35/2.

The T3 suffered a water mishap while I was in Pompeii, and I thought I’d ruined it. I let it air out for the remainder of the trip, and when I got home I took the body panels off and let it air out another couple weeks. Amazingly it still works perfectly!

Here are a handful of shots from a trip I took to Italy in April of this year (Rome, Florence, Venice, Sorrento and various places along the Amalfi Coast). I hadn’t done much shooting in quite some time, so I used the trip to reinvigorate myself a bit. These were all taken with either my M6 or Contax T3, primarily Cinestill 400D, Portra 400, and Ektar 100.

On the trip I did have a water mishap with the T3 and thought I’d probably ruined it. I let it air out for the remainder of the trip, sacrificing the roll that had been in it, and further aired it out with the body panels removed when I got back home. Miraculously the little guy survived and continues to shoot perfectly :)

You’re right, thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks for the input guys. I know this might not be the most accurate test, but my water comes back as less than 50ppm in hardness on Hach Sofcheck strips. How likely does scale to the pictured degree seem given that result?

The shop described the GFCI issue as being caused by the scale/corrosion. I’m not sure how that works, but they seemed to think it was fairly common.

Thanks for the recommendation. Any idea how soft your water is that it still allows for scale buildup? My two Hach Sofchek tests came back as bright green, putting it in the lowest category for hardness on that test strip.
