It was supposed to rain, however it held off long enough to get a roll shot in downtown Oakville plus run into a fellow film photographer and good friend Bill Smith who was on his own Film Photography Day adventure!

If there's one thing that is plenty at Fort Erie and any reenactment it's the faces of the men and women who put on the wool and take to the field. I made a point to focus on these for my final roll shot before I to put on the King's uniform and marched off to battle.

This past year, if there is one downtown that offered up a lot of inspiration for my photography that city is Guelph. A beautiful area in the snow with plenty of historic buildings surviving, both commercial and plenty of residential.

Okay, so here's where I met with a surprise. I did not expect these images to turn out this good! Not only do we have fine grain, but sharpness, not to mention a rich contrast and tonal range. These look more like Reversal rather than Negative.

For an upcoming episode John provided the gang with some fourth-party M42 lenses to test out to see how well they actually worked. I'm rather impressed at how well the lens I ended up with, the Sun Auto 85-210mm f/4.8 turned out. I'm sure it would do better in a camera that could actually stop it down and I ended up shooting this wide open the whole time because Zenit E. Over all there's little to no fall off on the corners, a bit of flare if I wasn't careful. But lovely sharp lens.

And we have another winning combination here and it probably has a lot to do with the compensating nature of TMax developer. Not to mention, you see a drop in noticeable grain while maintaining a level of sharpness and some awesome tonality!

I was digging through my film collection and came across this roll of Rollei Pan 25 that expired back in 2016. With a bit of digging I realised that it was respooled Efke 25. Now I had shot this film way back but only posted a handful of rolls. So with my surprised I got some amazing images out of this last roll.

In the case of RPX 400 and Kodak D-76, you end up with a solid baseline of how the film should look, and while there's nothing bad about the combo, nothing is surprising or exciting about them either, they look rather normal, and that can be a good thing.

While not my favourite look for this film, Kodak D-76 does a decent job, no need to worry about grain with the pull to ASA-20, and you even don't lose that rich chrome feel about the images.
