MPerson Posted March 1, 2009 Share #1 Posted March 1, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) My 10 yr old son has had a couple of my old cameras. Canon G2 when he was 8, an Olympus Trip when he was 9. Last March he asked if he could have a go with the CL with the VC II meter attached. This is the very first he took with the CL and developed himself. The second one was taken a week ago. He now shoots and develops his own films using Diafine or R09 and next on the agenda is making real prints in the darkroom! CL | Summicron-C 40/1.2 | APX 400 | R09 1:40 9 mins [ATTACH]129651[/ATTACH] CL | Summicron-C 40/1.2 | Tri-X 400 | Diafine 3 + 3 [ATTACH]129652[/ATTACH] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andit Posted March 3, 2009 Share #5 Posted March 3, 2009 I can just see that M8 moving into his room... What makes this so much more impressive is that he used a complete manual camera, film and did the developing and printing. Absolutely Brilliant!
