Picked up an ME Super at Xmas and just got the roll back.

Scanned straight from camera

The C41 black and white film is really nice and contrasty and has great latitude

Like the title says

Post your fav photo taken with a Pentax camera in 2014 and talk about why you liked it etc.



For me being a street photographer its about capturing something unique - the juxtaposition, uniqueness and contrast of every day life. This was taken back in March. This guy decided to rest for a second and Im so glad I got it. Literally after the shot was taken he got straight up and walked across the street.

I just picked up an ME Super and I am using the split screen focussing for the first time.

Ive just loaded a film so it will be a week or so before I can put a roll through it to make sure the camera is sound.

However...

This split screen / prism thingy is hard to get used to after a big lay off! - (20 years)

at times its a bugger to ascertain whether Ive nailed it or not - for example on a pattern or mosaic.

Other times you are just throwing the lens out and in and ascertaining what you perceive to be in focus because you cant lock on to something solid in the middle.

Any one else any thoughts or experiences on this?
