Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the positive feedback. At this stage I didn't want to get too far down the road just because the camera works without thinking about whether the results as a whole are successful. I've been really pleased with the results so far.
As for the film supply, we had a film vault go south in the photographer's area, with many boxes of film getting wet in the process. They were generous enough to pass all the out of date film with damaged boxes my way (10+ 50 sheet boxes of C-41 and E-6). This windfall helped spur this project on, and that's why the majority of it at this point is in color!
