Well if you're going to take a 400D with you, you already have a SLR.
If there's a nice lens for it, I wouldn't bother bringing an extra SLR
(and if there isn't a good lens for it, leave that squeeking thing at home).
Just do the analogue stuff with the XA, it's perfect for travel and street anyway.
By the way, just got the first two rolls of my XA dev'd and printed.
Happy with the results!
Shot a roll of Portra, and an Ektar.
Was suprised that the Portra was starting to go grainy (10x15cm prints, 160 iso film!), and rendered skin tones rather un-sexy.
Anybody else experienced that?
Haven't shot that Portra with another camera yet, so can't compare.
Ektar (which is sold at drug stores over here now for €4.50) combined with sunny weather & the XA is a super team.
