Hi. I've never done a thing like this and frankly I find it a bit daunting but count me in (if I'm not too late)! Thanks for organising this Penlens. Now if you will excuse me I need to watch a hundred YouTube videos on what ‘zines are and how one makes them!

I put a roll of Street Candy through an Agfa Silette over a very long time. Here's a few from that roll

Nice comparison. You make a good point about the zoom switch. I use a mirrorless camera to shoot video but frankly I'm not pushing the technical limits of any system. I used to use a separate audio recorder but these days I have a wireless mic and record into camera which works at least as well...

A few weeks ago I posted a photo of a National Testing Lab cerviscope camera, well here are some general macro photos from it shot on Gold 200. The system is remarkably well suited for its intended use. I have two of them in fact. One has the asset tag in the film gate the other does not.

Or take a public hire bike. Nice little ride that.

Realising I should have done this first of all I have now run the four photos through an AI restoration, which has done a pretty good job. Here are the results. Thanks again for everyone’s input.

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner. Very well done that man! Mr Google tells me 33 Fishergate is known as Ivy cottage. I had looked at that corner yesterday after you said York Minster but with all the new builds I wasn't sure. Looking again this morning and checking the property name seals the...

A few from a roll of Tmax 400 shot in an original Diana toy camera.

Top sluthing.not sure how you spell sluthing!

Hello, I just developed a roll of Verichrome which had four images on it. My best guess is it had been in the camera for about 50 years, certainly no more. Anyone know where this town is please? On the right is Ivy Cottage bed and breakfast. The car in the foreground is a blue Ford bearing...

I came across this which was seeking backing around 2004 I believe and thought someone might find it curious!

An 81A will reduce the colour temp' by 200 Kelvin. With Ektachrome which is traditionally on the "cool" or blue side this might be desirable (E100 is better than ealier verstions however). We used to call the 81A the instant suntan or hungover groom filter back in the day as they can add a...
