It looks as if that Epson was a great investment. I like the colour and tone on this.

Re: PESO: Wrecked car
LOL. We have our hooks into you now!! Take heart though, film isn't really all that much more expensive than digital if you factor everything in. ~nick On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 10:57 PM, Walter Gilbert wrote: > Cool find, Nick. > > Just so you'll know, I went and bought a roll of film today, and a battery > for the exposure meter. > > All they had was Fuji Superia X-tra 400 (it was a Dollar General Store). > I'll shoot through it, get it processed at Sam's Club, and see how I like > it.

Re: PESO: Wrecked car
Cool find, Nick. Just so you'll know, I went and bought a roll of film today, and a battery for the exposure meter. All they had was Fuji Superia X-tra 400 (it was a Dollar General Store). I'll shoot through it, get it processed at Sam's Club, and see how I like it. Then, I'll probably go to the local camera shop to see if they have any good b/w film, shoot it and get it processed. Then, in all likelihood, I'll get a damned film scanner. Then, you'll be getting a subpoena from my lawyer to appear as a witness on my behalf in bankruptcy court. Thanks.
