Please don't post any more pictures from the Pen FT, esp. not such extraordinary good ones. Since I bought the (digital) Pen E-P1 I often thought about trying one of the analog predecessors. 

Does that mean pics from a Pen F are still OK? 😆

Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

Nice one, Chris! Good news is that my gear budget is running towards zero this time of the year :)

Here comes another Silbersalz35 sample from the same roll as the picture before, cropped and white balance adjusted towards blue:

Still waiting till september...;)
What do you prefer, the 50er or the 250er? Is the 250er much more grainy than the 50er?
I find it difficult to judge by a scan that is reduced to forum size.
I am curious how RA4 prints will be…

I waffled a bit on getting an M5 due to the objections many people have concerning size and weight but did want a film M with light meter. After speaking with Sherry Krauter who many here know is a fan of the M5, I decided to purchase based on the reported meter accuracy and traditional Wetzlar design philosophy before drastic cost cutting measures were implemented. The story of rejection of the M5 by Leica faithful is akin to the Ferrari Mondial which was never accepted by the faithful simply for having 4 seats instead of 2. They still look, handle and most importantly sound like a Ferrari but now can be had at a fraction of the cost.

I am looking forward to getting to know this camera and posting images here....Cheers!

On the street it is faster to use / meter than the other M’s (except M7), though it does not have frames for 28mm, and it is relatively large. Also, lots of things seem to work the other way round (rewind button, counter). To me its an ergonomic marvel,  a practical tool, and somehow it also takes excellent pictures. I am sure you enjoy using your M5.

these little straw bales are very rare today here. Mostly they do these huge round bales...

We have 'retro' bales here too, in Wiltshire! ;)  Hasselblad 500C, 80mm Planar + Y/G filter, Fomapan 100, Rodinal.

Great Steve, really great. Has a certain ballet quality to it, somehow (to my admittedly usually quite befuddled mind).

I really like these two, Xíara. In some way they're opposites to each other, yet in some ways they are very similar. Fascinating.

Haha yes anything made of brick these days is just hip. Still a terrific black and white photo.

We had a discussion a few hundred pages back (:rolleyes:) about sunsets. I'm a big fan, just like I like ice cream and other simple pleasures. There's nothing like a G type main sequence star disappear beyond the horizon. Speaking of sunsets, I really like the German word for it, Sonnenuntergang. It has an ominous feel to it due to the Untergang (downfall) part, which I have always liked.

I know, sunsets are somewhat boring, but as I don't find anything better on my films, I come up with another golden light :)

Darn you Chris. I must resist buying another camera.

Thank you Philip, most kind. 

In the FART 'pre-flight' check list, the pattern caught my eye. But it wasn't until I viewed the negative that I further visualised the graphic opportunities. 

I adjusted exposure plus the black and white points.
