4th Avenue, Just Another Day, Film Camera

February 23, 2013
Well, had the Zeiss Ikon out again and was shooting Ilford XP Plus. Pushed it to 1600 and waiting for development. Worked on a project that is on the web site “pedal power” not sure if that title is going to stick or not. Stayed at one location on 4th Ave to shoot the bicycles and heir unique riders. The Zeiss fires slower than a digital camera, I think. Not certain how well I captured the riders. One guy saw the film camera and said “man I haven’t seen a film camera in a long time” 🙂

4th Avenue Another Day Shooting

February 22, 2012
Brought out the Sony Nex 6 the next in the lineup. Not much going on only spent about 40 minutes then off to another appointment. I had trouble shooting with my sunglasses. The take them off stupid! Anyway, hopefully will be back tomorrow with either the Leica or Zeiss Ikon.

Going back to film,,,with trepidation

2/10/2013: Well I took the Zeiss Ikon out for the first day, loaded with Ilford XPlus film. It was a pleasure. Photographed on 4th Ave during a “trunk show”. Interesting could have stayed all day. Got a roll shot waiting for development.
Composed selectively and shot thoughtfully, it was a great feeling. No chimping allowed!

Tucson Downtown

11/25/2012: Slow day downtown. Not much activity even though it was Small Business Day. A couple of pics but nothing great

Sony Nex 6

11/20/2012: Worked with Sony Nex 6. Camera seems to be a good backup to Leica M9. Focus is quick. I do not like a zoom lens (18-55mm) on the camera. Prefer to have a single focus.
