I dug this out of a suitcase back in March:

I gave it a quick once over and it all seemed to be in working order. Although I obviously wouldn't know until I got something developed. Well I finally did this week and IT WORKS! I know it might not be a big deal to most but I am over the moon!

Here is one I have scanned today. XP-2 (of course!):

Not the best photograph I will ever take by a long way. Metering was a pain in the arse as was standing on some street furniture to see over the railings as was trying to look over the camera to look down into the viewfinder

Thanks for looking

Well, I actually like the pic, has a cool feel about it. Maybe next time you can turn the camera upside down... much safer than trying to look over the top

It is! I was so happy. It was my Grandfather's camera. He is 95 years old. He has seen the photograph and he was so happy
