Default Hi from Chesterfield UK

My name is Gary I like very close to the beautiful Peak District, been shooting film on and off for about 20 years, but 3 years ago went over to film 100% when I bought a Leica M4-2 and then a 70 year anniversary M4P but only used to scan but recently bought a Sony A7 so now im 95% film
I have just joined because last week I was given a Focomat 1C so im looking for tips and tricks but have got some quite nice prints already

Hi Gary.

Sorry, your 1st post was another one that slipped under the radar and didn't get made visible until now :-(


A belated welcome aboard!

Great part of the world you live in for photography. The focomat is a very popular bit of kit so I'm sure several people here use one.

Cheers, Bob.

Welcome Gary. I need to read intros more thoroughly. I had misunderstood your reference to the Focomat 1C thinking that this was a reference to a camera when I had only heard of a Focomat enlarger which is what you were clearly referring to.

Put it down to still being on FADU at 11:30pm on a Saturday night

Mike
