Smile New from Derbyshire

Hello all,

Have known about this site for along time through a fellow photographer. I joined it some time ago but because of one thing and another didn't participate.

I have always been interested in photography and started with a Kodak 127, which I still have and use. My first SLR was a Zenith and progressed to a Canon. That came everywhere with me, even caving. I looked into digital only finding that I came back to using film and buying a Nikon F5. My cameras that I use now are the F5 Nikon FM2n Voitlander Vito II Mamiya RB67, Kodak Six-20 E, with a very old looking roll of Verichrome 620 in it.

My fave film is FP4 or is it APX 100 or Pan F, it could be T-Max 100..........oh the choice!!!

Been in the Derby area for about 30 years now, originating from Yorkshire and now living in a house with plenty of room so a couple of years ago changed the back room into a darkroom. Anyway hopefully will be chatting and asking loads of questions on the forum.

Thanks

Rob from Derbyshire

Hi Rob and welcome from a South-Midlander. Looks like you are well set-up. Often thought about a F5 myself.
