Thanks for the heads-up Jonathan.
A great deal if anyone is looking at multiple rolls, especially of the TMax 400.

That sounds priced to sell! By all means Chuck up photos, I’m sure it’ll help it along.

Now that I have your interest. Spotted this lens on eBay earlier:

Apparently is about the same as a Celestron 1250mm f/10 too, which seems to be seldom reviewed but revered. I'm 1/2 tempted but can't justify the spend!

My Kershaw Raven (see a couple of pages back) has just come back from having new bellows fitted, the lenses cleaned and the shutter serviced. I loaded a roll of Ilford Delta 400 and will use the roll up tomorrow so I can send it off to be developed on Monday. At only eight frames per roll, it shouldn't be too difficult!
Can’t wait to see the results! My Kershaw Raven (see a couple of pages back) has just come back from having new bellows fitted, the lenses cleaned and the shutter serviced.

I’ve just received a quote for two MX’s to have full services. They’ve apparently been neglected, service-wise, so will be as full a service as they come but they’re internally great and aesthetically great, not been meddled with and will be great cameras when they return. The quote reads a little high but will definitely be worthwhile.
Work being carried out by Asahi Photo and should be returned shortly after 7-10 working days.
I’ll be keeping them both as infinitum, one for Colour rolls and one for B&W.
If the quote was a little cheaper I’d probably have gone for a film scanner or developing hardware alongside them but that can wait.

Bit of a long shot but does anyone have one going handy for not a lot of money?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks again folks. Bill, if you have seen Thomas Heaton’s YouTube videos on woodland photography you will know he loves an isolated highlit tree, the trouble is now when I see one I cannot help but question whether it’s because of his influence or of my own volition! Consequently I have cut down on the YouTubes I watch as whilst they can be informative there is a danger one’s work becomes derivative.
As much as you may feel it's derivative, your eye is ultimately different to someone else's, as is your scene and choice of post-processing so the likelihood of it falling into dangerous territory is reasonably slim (in my opinion).
As for the OP, love the set. #5 sings out to me.
