Nikon F-801s, AF Nikkor 24-50mm f/3.3-4.5 at 50mm, 1/15s, f11 – Fujifilm Neopan Across II
Developed in Ilford DD-X at 1:4, 9 mins at 20°c.

An image from a recent(ish) trip to Sheffield… I love the tiled ‘Gilmour’s Windsor Ales’ sign, one of a few still to be found in the area (Gilmour’s was a Sheffield brewery acquired by Joshua Tetley & Son Ltd in 1954).

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

From the sublime (the Fujica GW 690 Professional) to the ridiculous for this week’s ‘Fujica Friday’ post… the 110 Fujica Pocket 350 Zoom (a camera I still need to write a post about!)

Minolta Dynax 800si, Tamron SP AF 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro, 1/90s, f11 – Foma Pan 400 rated at ISO 320
Developed in Ilford Ilfosol S at 1:9, 8½ mins at 20°c.

I’ve recently acquired a Tamron SP AF 90mm f/2.8 Di Macro lens for use with my small (but inexplicably growing!) collection of Minolta Dynax/Maxxum SLR cameras. It’s a beautiful lens but as yet I’m still to get the best out of it… more practice is called for I think!

‘Fujica Friday’? Well… why not? Over the years I’ve acquired a few Fujica cameras in 110, 35mm and 6×9 formats, all of which I ought to use more than I do!
