August Long Weekend Part One

Image
 August long weekend was perfect weather wise, and being part of 100 ISO Summer, I rolled with Kodak Pro Image 100 in my Nikon F3/T. I went up to Beaverton then worked my way through Brock Township down to Cannnington. The North end of Brocktownship around Beaverton is what I think the gateway to the Kawarthas and Haliburtons if you scoot over to Highwy 35. If you continue up the Trans Canada Highway (12), you're headed to Muskoka by way of Orillia. Lake Simcoe itself was seen as cottage country in the past, today, something else.  I loved the results from Pro Image 100 and the Nikon F3/T's perfect metering felt almost like cheating.  Camera: Nikon F3/T Nikkor AIS lenses.  Film: Kodak Pro Image 100.

Wandering Around the Neighbourhood with Dad's Nikon F

Image
 A mid Summer walk around my neighbourhood and I brought dad's Nikon F out off the shelf for a workout. While I love Adox CHS 100 II, with the bright almost cloudless skies and running with mostly Sunny 16 and on occasion a Sekonic L398a found the photos a little too contrastly. Adox CHS 100 II unlke say Ilford FP4 or Kodak Tmax 100, Fomapan 100 or Rollei RPX 100, is not quite as forgiving and yoiu want to shoot with a camera with an accurate meter.  Camera: Nippon Kogaku Nikon F, Nikkor Pre AI lenses.  Film: Adox CHS 100 II, FX39 1+9.
