Hi from the Peak District

Post by davkt » Tue Nov 09, 2010 11:20 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Well just outside the District in one of the small towns the park boundaries were drawn to avoid.
Just starting out on the LF journey, have an MPP Microtechical Mk VII and Noon 4x5 pinhole camera to play with and have just sorted the bits and bobs to process the films. Don't have an LF enlarger or suitable scanner so will be limited to contact printing for the time being but with negs that big don't think that should be a huge problem!
Cheers
David

Thanks, with a bit of luck we will be out playing with the cameras (probably the Noon for me) at the weekend as I've just bought my 11 year old daughter her first film camera (a Zeiss Ikonta 6x6) after the results of film took her fancy looking round the Fay Godwin exhibition at the National Media Museum a couple of weeks ago and it'll be her first chance to try it. That will no doubt be followed by her first go at developing a film!
