Photoshow in Milano-Italy

Dear friends,
last Saturday I visited the Photoshow in Milano: an exhibition dominated by electronics, focused mainly on the digital aspects of photography.
But I managed to visit the small booth of an Italian company that manufactures darkroom chemicals, and the new manufacturer of the AGFA chemicals (this german company bought the furmulas).
And I visited the 2nd hand area! Prices were interesting (voigtlander Vito for about 20 USD), so I bought a Industar 50 for my FED3 in a very good condition for about 12USD.
By the way, I am convinced that film photography is far from dying: several people visited the show with their film cameras (Nikon and Canon) hanging from their necks.

Have a nice day!

Ciao Mauro,
mi sa che ho perso un'opportunità ... ma ero già stato a Milano la settimana prima per la mostra di HCB .. forse potevo combinare le due cose.
Sarà per il prossimo anno ...
Ciao
Nico

Caro Nico,
se io avessi dovuto pagare il biglietto intero probabilmente non ci sarei andato: ma visto che avevo un ingresso invito, ho colto l'occasione.
Purtroppo io vivo ancora con il ricordo del vecchio Sicof, tutto fotografia vera, stand dove provare le apparecchiature, scenografie allestite per scattare foto, pellicole ovunque...che tristezza sabato, solo due padiglioni pieni di cavi e monitor computer, anche le marche storiche si sono adeguate.
Uniche eccezioni: Fuji, Ornano, A&O imaging che distribuisce Agfa.
Per fortuna mi sono divertito ed emozionato a visitare l'area dell'usato: quante vecchie glorie - ancora funzionanti! - esposte in vendita.
Per concludere, io mi tengo ancora la mia FEd + Kiev e mi diverto a scattare senza preoccuparmi della tecnologia che avanza (a proposito, la scorsa settimana ho sviluppato B+N con il caffè: risultati impensabili).

Ciao!
