Very nice Johnny.

Kenzie, I did the deal with the guy selling the X700 bundle - I now find myself the owner of an extremely sturdy tripod too.

That's good news. Did you want to trade 50mm lenses?

yokohama · 26-05-16, 08:58 PM

What spec's yours just out of interest? The one I got today is a 2nd generation Rokkor (as opposed to Minolta). 50mm f1.7 - 16. It's got a 55mm wide filter thread compared to the 49mm on the other lens I have.

Alternatively, now I have the zoom, I've a spare Tokina SD 28-70.

Its an Olympus Zuiko Auto-s 50mm f1.8-f16. What f/stop range is the Tokina?

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Binned the film from the Contina, there wasn't much left anyway. The rear lens is a bit hazy, the others need a bit of cleaning. Slow shutter speeds stick, self-timer works, generally needs a bit of TLC and the strap for the case re-riveting.

Am eagerly awaiting my prints. They were pretty quick last time. Some day my prints will come.

Pretty much the same then.
The Rokkor threw me a bit. Layout and colours on the barrel are slightly different from the MD. Also, the MD goes down to f22 and has an aperture lock.

That's your bank holiday weekend sorted then.

The guy I bought the beer cams from said "look theres a film inside" and proceeded to open the camera. Doh. Yoko, let me know if you do want to swap, can post Saturday.

Tokina is a 3.5-4.5 zoom. Closes down to f22 and has a macro too.
