"Hi" from the USA
So I'm a Yank hailing from Washington DC... and hope that's okay ...and yes, I'd prefer to be and from somewhere else but what can you do?
Love photography and returned to film this year almost by accident. I'd collected some Zeiss (Contax CY mount) for digital 'cause I liked the simplicity, and in truth "I'm an old school manual everything kind of guy". Realizing Zeiss also made even smaller ZM lenses, I picked up a Leica M4-2 and began shooting. Developing negatives came next; then a Contax S2 to shoot the other Zeiss glass... and then venturing away from Zeiss but sticking with the "it begins with Z so it must be good" theme, I picked up a Zenza Bronica for an SQ-A as a bargain 6X6 MF. My DSLR has now happily found a new life as a dedicated scanner, and "Oh if I must..." on those rare occasions when it's required for some reason. For now at least, digital (Epson) printing remains a comfortable post-capture control and means to sharing. Surely that won't be the end of things, or my ticket to oblivion here... but let me know. |
