So, I got a bunch of photos back from @webestang64 and that included a test roll of 620 that I shot through an old Kodak folder that I had completely forgotten about. There were blank frames, so clearly the camera needs a bit of work, but the shots that did come out made me want to shoot more 6x9.

There was also this one, which isn't particularly exciting (it was a test roll, after all) but it shows how well the lens and a 6x9 frame can capture tones and detail in a more high-contrast scene.

Nikon FM, 50mm AIS, TriX pushed 1600, HC110. The store had a nice Leica IIIF red dial with a 5cm f/2 lens, pristine body condition, lens looked like it had some stuff going on inside, and the price was outrageous, like $1950.... Anyway, liked the line, shadows, and contrast of the scene.

I look at this one and see more than a test shot. And now I want to use my Foldex 6x9.

Fujifilm GA645Zi, Acros 100, D76 1:9, Rapid Fix, Canoscan 8800F. My way of checking out a new camera is to go for a reflection. These people were very interested in my camera. They thought it was an instant camera. Students of photography. Asked a lot of good questions. I absolutely love Acros. Gonna try pushing it next time.

Chrome comes up nice on that Tri X. Still on the fence over buying 100 ft Tri X or HP 5

You can't go wrong with either in my opinion. There are subtle differences. You just got to compare them side by side at stock, 800, 1600, etc. or that's what I did. I think HP5+ has a little more tonal range. I prefer TriX for the rich black and look of the grain. It is so close really. Now Acros, that is really a super nice film. I just shot a roll at 400, HC110 B, negatives look gorgeous, and I like how flat it dries & lays in the scanner film holders. I bet the film experts on here would have more opinion on this. You should start a separate thread.

Picked up a bag at antique store that had misc stuff in it. Had a couple rolls of film in it. I told myself I wasn't going to use expired film anymore because it can be a pain to deal with. I popped it in and took images of my cat and dog and a few on the street. Developed the 24 exposure roll and only 4 images were decent, about 2 or 3 look like Picasso stuff, this one being my favorite. Some have some abstract quality to them so may goof around with them when I find time. Not sure but the roll may have got wet inside.
