Normally I don't built cars (or not realy often), but Sanel and his beautiful parts shop inspired me so much that I wanted to built a hot rod again. And now the IDS contest gave me the final kick to built and that's it. A red hot rod on route 66, but watch out the potholes and vultures. ;-)
The next phase of my Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS).
Partially inspired by my trip to Japan, I thought a classic Japanese film camera might be an excellent souvenir.
I casually shopped for a film camera while I was in Japan but wasn’t sure what I wanted. The prices weren’t at all tempting compared to some of the prices I had seen online before I left for the trip.
Many of the online sites sourced the cameras from Japan.
I decided on a Nikon F100 and ordered one.
The Nikon F100 was sold from 1999 to 2006. It’s quite sophisticated in my opinion. Offers auto focus and auto exposure if you want to use them, and has many programmable options. It’s compatible with my Nikon FX lenses.
The F100 is bigger then my Nikon D7000, and quite a bit heavier, but everything feels quite familiar compared to my other Nikon SLRs.
In the ‘old days’ I used to buy B&W film by bulk, load my own cassettes, shoot with my Pentax Spotmatic, develop and enlarge the shots in my bathroom dark room.
I am working on my first roll of film in the new camera. I chose colour film for my first roll, not sure why. When finished I will take it to the drug store for developing and scanning.
I’m not rushing to use the roll up. Trying to learn the camera and maybe do something interesting with it, but I’m very curious about the results. No chimping with this camera. I have to admit from time to time I went for the non-existent view button! :-)

Ehehe~ I got both on the same day. I hadn't known they had a miniature 7D before (I'd only seen Marks), but when I found out, I had to get one since I was getting the real deal too (and it's been my dream camera for years). And today I got both! Picked the miniature up from the PO earlier and in the evening swapped my 70D to this lovely. <3
Tomorrow I shall be playing with it. :3 It feels so much better in my hand than the smaller 70D did and the buttons are similar to my old 50D. This feels how I expected the 70D to feel when I got it: like an upgrade to my old camera. I was so dissappointed in it for many reasons (more cons than pros) but this feels nice. I still have to see about the jpg quality tomorrow when there's light but so far everything else is better. So happy!
It's used (a few years old) but cosmetically it's in perfect condition and it's only been actuated about 10000 times. Now if only I hadn't broken the focus on my macro lens a few months ago...

Photographed with a F100/2.8 Macro, with some strong colour contrast processing, hopefully not too strong! #Macro Mondays #Inside electronics
The flat floor of the plains was created by a Pleistocene lake (Lake San Agustin). The Plains of San Agustin were purportedly the site of a UFO crash landing in 1947, an event thought to be connected to the Roswell UFO incident.
