A moto-photo weekend
Tomorrow i will attend a vintage motorcycle show at the local BMW-Ducati dealership. I'll pack my Leica M6 with 35 and 50 Summicrons, my Nikon FM2 with 24f2.8 and 55 f2.8 Micro-Nikkor, and a bunch of 100 slide film. Should be around 100 deg F tomorrow afternoon so I plan to be done by 1.

Hi Raid,
Hoping to find some time to test BW400CN with the IIIf & Summitar. If I'm lucky, I'll find some places to try out f2 & a filter to really stress that C41 B&W film a bit.
Have you had a chance to give the 75 'lux a workout yet?

My big weekend was the previous one, spent in the Poconos, with uncanny-great weather. Still working my way through the images; between that, and a little weekend tech-gig stuff, not much snapping this time around. (Just as well...weather here won't be so hot anyway.)

There's a seafood/blues festival all weekend, if it's not raining I'm going to finally test out all my new lenses. Need to find a smaller/more comfortable bag though. carrying several lenses in your pockets gets annoying, and most bags are pretty uncomfortable when its 90 F and humid outside =\

I'm editing photos from two photoshoots this week. In between I'll be scanning 6 rolls of 135 and 3 rolls of 120. I'm also installing some new cabinets in my office to store all my bodies and lenses. Supposed to go for a hike on Sunday, weather permitting, and will try to shoot a roll or two.

Hello William,
I started out with the 35mm 1.4 since it is on loan to me whereas I bought the 75mm 1.4. The 75mm lens will be used this weekend! |

I'm trying out my new to me Mamiya Super 23. What a beast. The 100mm f3.5 lens has a bit of a sticky/sluggish shutter due to not being used for years. I have to exercise it a bit with the dark slide in, before removing the dark slide and making an exposure. Once the roll of 120 HP5 is done, I'm hoping to develop it right away to see how the camera works.

Frank,
The camera looks very clean. Will you use it on a tripod or hand-held? I bet that the lens is super sharp. |

Hi Raid, this camera is in amazing shape. Bought new by an architect to photograph (architectural) models and buildings, passed on to his friend, who sold it to me. I will need to get the lens CLA'ed though. It came with a 6x7 roll film back (too bad it's not the 6x9) and a ground glass back. I shot the first roll hand-held, but I'll also use a tripod when appropriate.

Have to do some SOHO work this weekend. I hope I can finish the tax declarations. Terrible!
And no time for shooting!

We have our annual county fair happening here in our rural county. DSLR for the many shots of kids and farm animals. i think I'll take the OM-2 and a couple of lenses for film. And most important, a pair of well cushioned Rockports for my feet!!

I'm off to Acadia NP with a Nikon L35AF, loaded with Fuji 160S. This little $5 yard sale find is growing on me. Yeah, uses batteries, but at least they're simple AAs.
Also coming along: Agfa Record I with Delta 100. First roll in this one. Practically unused example that my dad picked up for me in Germany.

Today, my day was free of photography, but tomorrow I hope to get more out of the day with respect to using my gear for some street photography and family photos. My kids grew one week older last week!

Small Office / Home Office. Taken from software terminology.

It is weekend time again. What are your plans for this weekend, and is photography part of what you will be doing?
I know for sure that I need to pack stuff up for moving a week later.
