Minolta a sad loss
Yes indeed welcome to the forum.
I still do 'the other stuff' because that is part of my p/time job - I have to use it. I have two Minolta bodies a XM and an XE1 plus a selection of lenses. The XM was Minoltas attempt at going Pro but Nikon/Canon had too tight a grip on the market so it was discontinued. The XE1 is a bit like a XD model, just all metal and a lot heavier. Only B&W now, I got bored with colour printing. |

The RZ67 will do anything you might want to do (well maybe not sports) providing you don't mind the weight and the Yashicamat is excellent to sling over your shoulder if, say, you're on a family walk and can't justify carrying the RZ.

As for doing colour printing, I've never done it, mostly because I don't do that much of it and it looks a little bit too complicated for me = especially sorting the colour casts with filters out. I therefore get all of my colour work done, when I do some, at a good lab. Remember, when / if you develop the colour C41 films, the next step would be enlarging them all! I would personally get a good lab to do dev and enprint for you for C41 and if you then feel inclined still to do colour, treat the enprints as proofs to pick out the best for enlarging by yourself. Personally, I'd do what you said and focus on your B+W work for a good while, and then see if you still want to go over to colour at a later date. But hey, that's just my opinion and there are a lot of colour workers on here who will say otherwise. Terry S Last edited by Terry S; 5th January 2019 at 12:53 PM. |
