This is the first time i've been brave enough to point a film camera at the sun though. The underexposure went a bit far on this one and I think i'd need some sort of filter or at least a better film stock to get a better result here.

 

ALSO, if anyone else looks at this shot it'd be cool to know what you think about this

It's interesting and with the Cosina so far it's been unavoidable to used a prime 50mm lens so i've experienced being limited in this way. I'd have to agree with the writer that it helps eye-wise. Just bought a 30mm Pentacon wide lens for it too (for £13 :) ) so that should be fun too :)
