Continuing On with Kentmere 100 with a Nikon FM

Image
 Yeah, Kentmere 100 just plain rocks. That is all in that department.  I am a Nikon fan boy with scores of F, F2, three F3's a pair of F4's, pair of F90x's, a pair of F100's an F5, FM2's a pair of FE's, a pair of FE2's and a pile of Nikkormats. All work great, but I had two problem FM bodies that are no longer in the collection but, at some point in the past year, I decided to replace with a chrome and black FM bodies. I'm happy to find two examples and both work great, granted I had to re-seal the black one.  Camera: Nikon FM, Nikkor Ai Converted SC 50 F1.4 lens.  Film: Kentmere 100, Ilfotec HC 1+31.

Mirvish Village Reborn and into the Annex/Sussex Village

Image
  After Koreatown, we wandered into the recently reopened Mirvish Village, a sort of transitional micro neighbourhood between Koreatown and The Annex. The old and long gone landmark, Honest Ed's, a discount department store, now the site of a market rate apartment complex. The one cool establishmentt I fell in love with is Book Bar, Toronto needs more indie bookstores, and a bar and book store mated together concept is cool. There are echos of the old Honest Ed's in an Alleyway off Sussex.  I'm happy with results from Kentmere 100, I was gift a bulk loader of Kentmere 400, I should spool some rolls up and see what I get.  Camera: Nikon FE2,
