will try to be there, if I can't make it pls save me a book

Wow nice project, congrats!

Where can I purchase it on the internet ? : )

Nice ! Looks really interesting. Is the project on the internets anywhere ?

Definitely interested in a copy of a book, in Brum so can't make it for the launch

Like these, FP4 (and Delta 100/400) are fast becoming my favourite B&W films. Such a nice range of tones..

On that subject, 35mm Delta 4o0 pushed one stop. Not been in the darkroom before, going to get my local lab to help me get a wet print of this for my friend's son's first birthday

Anyone done a wedding before ? Did my first one a few weeks back as a family favour and it ain't half stressful. The digital crapped out on me while trying to write a photo to a card for two hours, but luckily film carried me through the digital down time and they're probably my favourite photos.

..ha, bummer that the digital crapped but great to hear the analogue backup worked so well!

Nice shots up there, made me smile..

Yea I've done a few weddings as well, for money and recently for friends, with the latter I always brought a 35mm point and shoot with some b&w film as well and this always resulted in some nice snaps!

Found this in a second hand shop. Are these lenses worth much anymore? Its a 1.4 but was a bit fungusey. No idea if the body works, probably has light leaks :/

They’re well made and heavy beasts but are great. A classic. The lenses are excellent too and often adapted ... so it’s a shame about the fungus.

They were really popular cameras so it’s not hard to still find both cameras and lenses in good condition for a little more money.

Personally I’d steer clear of fungus or dirty lenses or stiff or dry mechanisms.

Light leaks in the body though ... usually (on metal cameras) that’s just an easy / cheap fix at home with some foam.

Lovely portrait shot. They’ll love that print.

Cheers !
