You need to read up (Google) on how to establish a correct speed rating for your meter - film - developer combo.

If it's say 3200 changing the +/-EV does not change that it merely gives under or over exposure because the reading is taken off say a white wall or black cloth.

Great shots Stan especially the 2nd, although I'd be tempted to clone out the swimmers

Should put Pentax ahead of the others given their superior jpegs out of the camera. They'll all be rushing to get the FF next year. Can't see the sense of this decree though. What if a camera only takes raw images!!

I once saw a similar Russian box, but they used dovetails (much stronger) instead of comb joints.

Very nice shots all of them.

The white gable of No 4 has the line of the grad visible...... unless the painter didn't have a stepladder

I would say start with a 50mm f/1.7 (A or M or K) reversed and then try some enlarger lenses.

Have a look at Nas's site....

I still use the 55-300mm with Jessops 1.7x TC in preference to the DA*300mm + 1.4HD TC (because it's a zoom) and Sigma 150-500mm although I do like the in lens stabilization of the latter from a viewing POV
