Let’s get this weekend started! Contax T with Ilford Pan-F 50+ developed in beer. I hate the ergonomics of this camera but love the lens and size. Every time I shoot it I think about selling it until I see how sharp the Sonnar lens is. People are paying stupid amounts of money for these so now I’m very tempted.

A couple of shots from when I had my daily walks on furlough back over the last couple of months

Very nice start, Bryan and Irv!
I've been out testing my "new" Wirgin Edinex, I'm quite surprised how good this camera is. The main reason is of course the Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar lens which is a modified Tessar design.
Wirgin Edinex / Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 2.8/28mm / Kodak T-max 400 in HC110.

I love the ergonomics and the size! 😂 I actually have 2, each of which has a slightly different problem ... my "newer" one has now developed a permanently stuck shutter, so I'm trying to find someone who will repair it. None of my normal go-tos will deal with it because of the electronics 😢 If anyone knows where I can just get these 2 T's CLA'd, let me know!

I don't like how I have to reach around the door to focus so I don't block the rangefinder or viewfinder windows. It feels awkward to me. Mine is not completely free of problems but they are very minor. The little button that pops to door open doesn't work, I think that's because the rubber skin that makes the button is hardened too much. Also the flash doesn't work reliably, if at all. Also the viewfinder window is scratched up a bit and the body shows a lot of use. I don't think I would get top dollar for it but it does work and takes great pictures.

Beavers can create very interesting landscapes! Love those shots Bryan!
Two from a walk in the forest. Came across a fallen tree forming an arc, which I found quite interesting.
Chamonix 45-F1, Ilford Delta 100.

Oh yeah, the little door button never worked on either of mine, to the point that I forgot it even existed 😁 To focus, I just hold the camera in both hands, put one finger from each hand on either side of the focusing ring, and it's easy to move. But I get how one person's good ergonomics could be another person's nightmare 😂

I'm enjoying the weekend's fruit folk, thanks for posting them!
I noticed some incomplete fixing on the end of a roll, and saw it was various colours. Scanned in "colour negative" mode. Penta ME Super with Minlolta 28mm, Adox HR in HR Dev.
