Just a wee message to thank you for sharing your videos they really are enjoyable. I have started to collect vintage cameras and will run some film through some of them. I was gifted the same camera you have used in this video. Keep up the good work and have fun. Kind regards Stevie
Thanks Stevie. Doing these videos has been fun since I retired last December. When I was coming up to the day, people were saying "Will you not get bored when you retire?" My answer was "I've got a big box full of old film cameras and a motorbike - so no chance of getting bored". Learning to develop my own B&W film was a big achievement this year. Have fun with your collection! Cheers!
I had a Minolta SRT 101 as a teenager. A few years ago I decided to start getting back to film and bought an XGM. It's a sweet little camera. I've since collected a number of other Minoltas but still have a spot in my heart for my XGM.
After mixed results from Fomapan 200 I wasn't sure what to expect, Andrew, but I have to say it really is very good. The fact that it isn't high contrast means there is room to maneuver in Lightroom. I'm looking forward to seeing the results you got with the 120. Cheers!

Thanks. The XG-M is a class camera and it gave me good service. Cheers, Keith
I just shot some Fomapan 100 (120 film) at the weekend, I was a bit concerned as it was a bit overcast. You results looked great though.
