Part Two with the Pentax ME Super (the $35 Special)

The ME Super is a pretty stealthy SLR, in fact, smaller than the Olympus OM2n it competed against. Like I said earlier, I scored this camera for $35, body only (I already owned the lens). The meter is spot on and the seals were good. This is going to be a regular in my briefcase for trips into the city and I can't take a full kit.

Camera: Pentax ME Super, SMC Pentax 50 f1.7 lens.
Film: Ilford HP5 400, HC110 B.

Driving North on a Thursday

Image
I cannot stand driving up the 400/11 and if I can avoid it, I will. That's a good thing because 35 is way more photogenic though, that still means I have to cross Toronto on the 401 before going north. The journey really begins when I leave Cannington and Durham region for the Kawarthas and point my car north on Highway 35.

Fuji Neopan Acros 100, while I shot that film in medium format, I haven't touched it in years in 35mm, I forgot how creamy this film was. What a shame Fujifilm killed this film off but, I think Rollei RPX 100 will be a decent substitute for most situations where you want a medium speed black and white.


Camera: Olympus OM-2n, Zuiko MC 50 f1.8 lens.
Film, colour: Kodak Portra 160. Black and White: Fuji Neopan Acros 100, Xtol 1+1.

Uxbridge Ontario Thursday September 27

I was on my way somewhere, up north. I always pass through Uxbridge. It feels like my real starting point in my journey, the mess that's the QEW/Gardiner Expressway/Don Valley Parkway is the temporary purgatory.

Of course, when I roll through Uxbridge I love photographing the York Durham Heritage Railway and wander around downtown for a bit.

Well just to warn you, there will be a bunch of image heavy post for the next few weeks. Sit back, pour a cup of coffee, your favourite beer, or glass of wine and enjoy the photographs.


Camera: Olympus OM-2n, Zuiko MC 50 f1.8 lens.
