Out and about with the Exa and Exakta.
« on: April 01, 2014, 03:49:21 AM »
Took my Exa and Exakta VX500 out recently.



(struggling with the new flickr - I don't think it's worth the struggle anymore)


















Agfa Precisa as usual.  :) They need to stock this place in actual stores here in the U.S.

Wow, that's what Agfa Precisa looks like processed E6? Nice. I've only x-pro'd Precisa (C41) and I was underwhelmed by the results. Apparently E6 is where it wants to be :)

Great shots, Flippy. I have used Agfa Precisa 100 before and I liked it a lot.

Ah yes, Precisa is a great slide film. It's the only affordable one these days too (for better or worse).

And that RD250 - it's nice to see a 2-stroke bike on the streets these days - they're almost an endangered species now.
