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!

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.

Today is Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day and I’ve been out snapping with my Ondu 6×6 Pocket Pinhole camera and Fujifilm X-mount fit thingyfy Pinhole Pro S ‘lens’ mounted on my Fujifilm X-E4.

This particular location has appeared on this blog a couple of times before, here and here and will no doubt do so again…

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

11 years ago it was this somewhat neglected corner of Derby…

Pics of W.E. Savage have appeared on the blog before, here and here but I don’t think I’ve published a pic of the ‘Glam Boutique’ pinup before.

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!
