Exactly… that lens is nice. My Canonet QL17 GIII is no slouch either. And I have. Voigtlander VF101 and a Minolta 7sII thats’s tiny. Oh and a Zeiss Ikon Contessamatic with a 50/2.8 Tessar. I suppose one more rangefinder wouldn’t hurt 🤣

Might have to look at some. Mt Tamron 3 f2.8 is. O longer factory white and all the numbers are black. I think someone painted it black or maybe use a lens jacket that rubbed off all the paint (except the lens hood). Maybe I’ll just filling in the numbers

I keep thinking of getting one, but o can’t justify it with the QL17 GIII and the Kiev 4 that I barely use.

I like Gale Banks too for his repeated trashing of diesel “tuners” that just dump fuel and rip out emissions controls.

One of the things I appreciate about Mighty Car Mods is that they value cars that are easy and fun to drive, and prioritize livability and reliability over sheer numbers. And they even run cats.

I use enamel model paint. I have used flat for filling in mainly because I also used it for painting around the shutter frame on a few cameras that had reflections. Hopefully you can’t tell which numbers I filled in. 😎

Huge honor for us: Steph of 'I Drive A Classic' has featured John's Canadian 1949 Minor lowlight, a 'Survivor' with less than 20,000 miles.

She shot the video at the recent #MorrisMinor National Rally—75 years to the week after it was built at Cowley + its first return to the U.K. since export.

I found most signs there to be pretty intuitive. Same with a lot of the Eau, other than going through a small town and then getting one of those end of speed zone signs and trying to figure out how fast to go. I quickly learned in Bosnia and Croatia that you go whatever speed.

Exactly. Focus on the thing you can control. Go for a ride, enjoy time with family or friends. The news cycles over the next few months are only going to get worse.

I do don’t it can be a bit flat. I not super impressed with a yellow filter, but that may be due to the relatively brown desert here. I find Kentmere highlights bunch up and blow easily so a yellow filter compresses out landscape more. Getting there with K400 if I mind the highlights

I should save up for bulk HP5 but want to get through this Kentmere 400 first and see how I like it

I still don’t have a settle 400 in B&W and well without Superia, I don’t have one in color either. 🤔

I dunno how this will all go, but no matter what all happens, the people I know and love will still be there and I’ll still take care of them. I am absolutely ignoring news and politics for now because this election cycle is going to be all doom and gloom. We will get through it.

The Daily Show skit on debates was far too accurate about the dangers of over-preparing to debate someone who just doesn’t care. 🤣

Hmm 🤔 I am going to have to ask how Horchata does with humidity. It’s apparently a tradition amongst migrant farm workers for hot days, but I would expect probably dry heat. In that humidity, I think a nice big Trocadero Zero would do me (if only I could find some here)

The old Bud Light Ice was weirdly refreshing at times. Can’t do beer anymore though, so our friends in town have some nice hard ciders I can drink. Weirdly like the one with a bit of lavender in it.
