Default Hello from Canada

Hello all, though I would introduce my self. I have just gotten back into B&W film photography afterabout a 30 year hiatus. I have a Canon AE-1 Program with 50 mm lense. Also have a 70-210 mm zoom, a Speedlite 199a and a Canon power winder. Hoping to learn lots of new things.

Mike

Welcome Mike. The AE-1 seems to be one of the highly rated "classics"

Thanks for the warm welcomes.

The AE-1 Program I got is in just about mint condition. I always wanted one of these when they came out, just didn't have the funds.

I actually developed my first 2 B&W films in 35 years. Actually turned out pretty good too. Took a few practice rounds to load film on the reel. I still don't have a darkroom set up yet, but I have my Durst F60 all cleaned up and ready to go.
