Nikon F2S, NIKKOR S·C 50mm f/1.4, 1/250, f11 – Kodak Tri-X
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 8 mins at 20°c.

An image from March this year… there’s something about somewhat run-down seaside resorts out of season that really appeals to me.

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

Nikon FA, Nikkor 35mm f/2 Ai-S + R72 filter – 8s, f16, – Adox HR-50
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 7½ mins at 20°c.

An image from this time last year! At first the roll was in the ‘to be developed’ queue and then it was in the ‘to be digitised’ queue!

…and I really must get some more Adox HR-50!

Nikon NIKOMAT FT, NIKKOR-H 50mm f/2 – Foma Pan 200
Developed in Adox FX-39 II at 1:9, 10 mins at 20°c.

An image from a roll of film that’s been sitting in the camera for three years!

The NIKOMAT FT and NIKKOR-H 50mm f/2 combination is possibly the scruffiest camera I own and is definitely older than I am!

Another pic from Port Seton last September. LH.230 is a fishing trawler and was built by Eyemouth Boat Building Co. Ltd. in 1982. The ‘LH’ indicates she’s registered just along the coast at Leith.

Nikon Zoom 310AF QD, Nikon Zoom 35-70mm f/3.5-6.5 at 70mm – Kentmere Pan 400
Developed in Ilford DD-X at 1:4, 11½ mins at 20°c.

I had this Nikon Zoom 310AF QD in the drawer for years but only in January did I put a roll of film through it!

I’m quite pleased with the results, the lens is sharp (or sharp enough) and the exposures all look fine…

A camera to use more often I think!
