As I mentioned in a previous post, I have decided to use a RF camera and Film to capture Street.

Below you will find a smattering of images from my 1st 2 real outings, after the camera was CLA'd.
Camera : Minolta Hi-Matic 7
Film : TriX / Fuji Pro400

    That RF juice certainly seems to work. Your shots have gone from mostly piddling (sorry!) to some super awesome stuff. The first is a tosser and I can see where you were going with the last, but I love the second and third.

    Not sure what part but

    RF - rangefinder camera
    CLA - clean,lubed,adjusted
    TriX - 35mm ASA400 film long time favorite of many
    Fuji Pro - same as above but in color
    Minolta Hi Matic 7 - 2nd in a series of rangefinder cameras circa 1963 - 70

    is that what your meant, or

    Much appreciate your comments, always have, always will.

    I actually have 2 RF's
    the minolta I used here and a Canon QL17 will be ready next week.
    I've decided to carry both one with 400B&W and the other 100Ektar, like we used too :D

    Thanks again for your words, it needed to be said. I just hope it's not a fluke, guess the next roll will tell mwink.gif

    Thanks for the reply. I honestly had no idea what that meant.
