Well, I finally got around to posting some photos from the first roll
(Ilford Delta 400) I shot with my christmas present: a Mamiya m645
with an 80mm f/2.8.

I definitely have a lot to learn, but I think the images have a nice /
quality/ about them.
Most of the portraits were taken using a Pentax AF540 flash, set to
Aperture priority, ISO 400, with the body set to 1/60 and f/2.8, /4.0,
or /5.6 aperture, depending on my desired depth of field. This seems
like cheating to me, but hey, it seemed to work. :) The exterior
shots were from the Leslie spit, down by the water in Toronto, and I
used my *ist DS as a meter - that was clearly less successful, and I'd
like to pick up a cheap meter or AE prism to make things easier.
I'd really like to explore high and low ISO b/w film now. Don't
really know much about available 120 film, anything I should try out?
Comments, criticism and suggestions solicited!
