Christmas Past
Fujifilm GA645, Kodak Portra 400, f4 1/45
So I succumbed to another GASsy temptation and purchased this strange autofocus/autoexposure medium format camera.
Turns out, it has a flash problem that's not entirely uncommon: the built-in flash often fires even if it's not popped up. Apparently, handy folks can try to fix this. As of yet, I've found neither the time nor the courage to attempt this.
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with the results. The autoexposure seems to favor going wide open (f4) and a sort of oddball shutter speed of 1/45. I've now shot two more rolls, so we'll see how things turn out with some less forgiving film than Portra.
