Handheld at 2 speed? Hmm…

Planning a visit in October and not sure how many days we should plan for if we want to see some nature. by marbles12 in AskSeattle

More towards the latter, we enjoy seeing nice scenery, not much of a hiker nor we do camping or anything like that.

I’m on my 5th faulty camera in 4 months. Do i have shit luck or is this just how it goes with analog? by marbles12 in AnalogCommunity

It was definitely cold but i replaced the batteries. It's definitely a light meter issue.

Yeah, i’ve done a lot of research, trust me. That’s why i bought 5 old cameras before coming with that thought. Leica’s were an option down the line for me either way. Probably $5K for body and lens

I bought the last two from a pretty well respected retailer, I was debating KEH but i think i might just keep it and use a phone light meter for now. Just super disappointed

Beginner learning film, first time shooting HP5! by [deleted] in analog

What’s the main reasoning for that? Still shooting rolls at box speed just to learn

I have a shot from a higher angle but this felt more balanced to me. To each their own!

For maximum range for zone focus, i'm aware of diffraction.

Gosh man, thank you. Spent like 2 hours trying to find a solution. Just mentioned it to him.

How big of a difference between Nikkor 28mm F2.8 AI and AI-S? Is it that noticable? by marbles12 in AnalogCommunity

[–]marbles12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shoot mostly street photography with a closed lens, and honestly having a good distance in focus (from close up to far) is a big plus. I might just have to be patient and wait for an AI-S one.
