A test portrait of my wife taken with my Arax-60 on Ilford Delta 100 120 developed in HC-110 1:63 for 10 minutes. I found the roll in the back of a sock drawer where I think it had lived for the last 8 years or so. It was well expired but worked out nicely.
She does not like it but I got permission to post it. Here is an "approved" picture of her : www.flickr.com/photos/photobal/3281589325/

Minolta X-370
A friend gave me a Minolta X-370 film camera. I have never owned a Minolta before. I have put a roll of Legacy 100 B&W film in it. Once the roll is done I will give the camera away as most of my lenses are Nikon and I won't have much use for this one.
Cute little camera though a bit flimsy. Came with a MD 50mm f/2 lens.

RIP Kodachrome
I have not shot a roll of Kodachrome in 10 years but it is still sad to see it gone. I have hundreds of colourful slides stored away and have scanned in a few. You can follow this link to my flickr page to see some of them: K64 pics.
Kodachrome was my main film during the early eighties, when I used my father's Nikkormat FTN to learn photography. He also has many boxes of slides of good old K64.
I shoot mainly digital now and only use my film cameras for black and white. I'll miss you Kodachrome but we said our goodbyes long ago.
