Looks like you hit 88Mph and 1.2Giga-Watts!

That's a cool pic!

"Only leica camera i've used was the P20.

Otherwise i main a Canon 60D. Nother fella that was at the last Meet and Greet we did has better skills than myself.

Street or offroad, i'll snap a fair game of both. Hell nothing is out of the cards if you have a little Yaris with it's hood up at a car show right next to the at-the-time-yet-to-be-released Supra, Yaris gets the same love

 

You mean @Canadian Joe ?

 

naa, nother fella, think it was @Skuce - his, i think it's his girl? drove in with a pretty stock 2nd gen half way into the event

 

Wasn’t there

 

I used to shoot a fair bit of 35mm film until some unwelcomed individual or individuals browsed through my home while my wife and I were at work and relieved me of the burden of ownership of it along with many other nice things. I do still have a good Canon digital SLR but haven't used it much for a couple years now.

 

I've been shooting film for quite a bit. I develop and scan my own film at home and have for like 15 years. I picked up this digital M240 a few years ago and it's not the same but it's familiar and I like that.

 

I really loved my old Pentax camera that was stolen. It was completely manual, very intuitive and didn't even need a battery to use it. My 5D is awesome and can take beautiful picture in full auto, but is not nearly as intuitive if you want to override the auto functions and use it in manual mode. I also find it frustrating when I'm out and the battery runs out of juice when I never had to consider it before with my old camera. Having said that, I don't really miss film anymore and love the freedom of taking more photos and being able to see them instantly.

 

This. The Canon point-and-shoot I got in 2016 is currently at 17,000 photos. Wouldn't be practical to do that with a film camera, since it would require over 700 rolls of film.

 

could always get a Polaroid if you want something new and still analog that gives you instant photos

I hear ya. I'm one of those old souls who still prefers film to digital. When I was shooting almost every day it would still take me a week or two to get through a roll of 36. These days it can last much longer. I'm pretty selective with my shots. Double edged sword, you end up saving on film and getting great shots but you miss the snapshot, memory type moments a lot more I find.

I like my digital leica only because the controls are very basic. They are pretty much exactly the same as my film one. So it's easy to go from one to the other.

 

Interesting...

 

Many moons ago I used to be into photography, and you old film guys will appreciate the film that was my favourite...
Kodachrome.

Can't even get that stuff processed any more, I think the last place in the US closed down about 10-15 years ago.

 

Changed out the Subaru headlight bulbs with Hikari Ultra Prime H11 LEDs. These fit the 3rd gen Taco as well. Wiring and igniter are also the most compact of all LED kits I've seen over the years.

 

Downtown Camera in Toronto...likely wil do it

About a year ago i turned in my 1957 Rollieflex D medium format and my Pentax K1000 and picked up a Canon T7i and a couple lenses...it works for the new me

 

Pentax K1000 was a great camera those were around for a long time.

Every time someone mentions Rollieflex I can picture someone looking into the top of one of those and cranking the winder for the next shot.

 

Pentax K1000 and some lens were what was stolen from me in the break-in, along with a lot of other stuff.

 

Got mine in 1979...such a solid camera. Never let me down

 

I got mine around 1985.
