Default Hello from Glasgow, Scotland

James here, was recommended this site by John, who's a regular in one of the darkrooms I use

35mm film user here, used to just shoot Minolta bodies, X-300, X-700 and SRT 101. Digital gear is Canon though, 5D, and to simplify thngs I bought a Canon EOS 1N body at end of March last year. Means I just need to slip this into the bag with my other Canon gear rather than having to carry a second bag of Minolta gear or decide one over the other

have had a great time getting back into film in a big way since this purchase and very much enjoying learning from experience and others
