New film emulsions for 2017

I haven't tried out the full auto modes yet. X700 has a program mode too.
This month's photo comp looks a bit technical??

[Kenzie]

It certainly is, makes it more of a challenge! I went back through previous themes and Spring has been done, monochrome has been done a couple of times. I thought something different was needed.

Yeah, choosing a theme is difficult. I'll have to read up this one and check what the OM D can do,

[Kenzie]

Pretty sure it will have an hdr mode, most stuff does these days.

It's got 2 in camera hdr modes somewhere according to what I read. I'll need to find them and see what they do

Photo gripe of the day. Just looked at a Franka Solida on ebay, pics show it has a film inside. Would buy it on that basis as it could have some interesting photos on. Nope... two pics later and the back door is open with the film half wound. Oh well. Got bids in on a Kodak Duo 620 though.
Same here, half used film and the door is open!!! 351991280842 I have a couple of rolls of film for this, so might take a chance.

My Instax mini 10 arrived today. It's really not mini. It's huge and takes a pair of cr123. Just need film packs now. What have you lot been up to? Going to dig the sv out on Monday.
The x300 on Gumtree around the corner has been reduced to £20. Don't need it though.

SV passed its MOT last week. I went for a quick blast afterwards but my hands were freezing after half an hour. It's still a bit cold.
Fortunately, there are no Gumtree temptations in this neck of the woods, apart from some Yashica lenses which I'm telling myself I don't need.

Bike show on Quest at the moment. I keep telling myself enough, but can't help it!
