Hardware is getting tiring. Time to shoot!
I've been thinking this way for some time and Tom V (on Pentax PDML)
gave me that nudge over the line. Time to stop dealing with hardware & always looking for that next goodie. 135 for color: Super Program 135 for b&w: KX 135 lenses: FA50/1.4, A70-210/4, A100/2.8, A35/2, Sigma 28/2.8 generic 28-80 zoom, M75-150 zoom 135 general purpose: Canon G-III QL17 6x6: Yashicmat 124 LF bodies: 4x5 Nagaoka wood field 8x10 Kodak 2D LF lenses: (4x5) Ilex 90/8, Rodenstock Ysarex 135 (8x10) 12" Ilex Paragon, APO Nikkor 360/9 (both) Fujinon 210/5.6 Lighting: Canon Canolite D, Pentax AF200T, Sunpak 611(2), background, stands & umbrellas, and a neat little Panasonic flash/slave, the likes of which I've never seen since. I'm set probably for life, except perhaps for possible breakdowns or breakage. Film & chemicals are all I should be buying in general for a long time. This is enough. I got into developing software because hardware was too frustrating. Photography is getting the same way. Time to produce instead of handle. So when you guys doing digital get frustrated because of the lack of durable history, I'll have a stack of negatives to set beside your scratched CDs/DVDs. What I've learned is this: There's too much out there. Stop buying & go shoot! Tonight I'm going to build the needed lensboard for the Nikkor & a piggy-back board to use the 210 on the 8x10. Saturdays are "Shooting Days". TIA, Collin |
