Default Hello :)

Hi!
Ive recently finished my first year in Photography at College
I thought this would be a great place to join to learn a few things
Ready for year 2 at college in September!

I wanted a fully manual camera so go myself a Canon AE-1
and i like it a lot although it is a little heavy, lol.

I have my own darkroom with a Durst M370 colour enlarger and
an Opemus 3 for doing 120 film only.

So that's me, Hi everyone

Hello and welcome to the forum Emily.

Look forward to seeing your prints... but you'll need to make 5 posts before your status changes from "new user" to "friend" and then you'll be able to post them in the gallery section.

Hi and welcome. The Canon AE-1 has a great following amongst 35mm afficionados. Glad you like it.

Mike
