Thanks! I've been meaning to shoot mushrooms for quite a while but just never got into it.

Reto UW&S' plastic lens has some interesting characteristics I should try capitalizing on.

Had my first try at C-41 home processing this weekend with a stash of exposed rolls from my Reto and this PnS. Seems to have mysteriously developed light leaks while sitting in a drawer for 2-3 years.

Silly me. I've had too little coffee today. You were clearly talking about the conversion lenses, while I kept reading that as the digital teleconverter for some reason. Ignore everything I said 🫠
illuj.bsky.social
You can switch between the converter modes using the control ring (to save you from having to dive in the menu system) but it's still mighty annoying if it resets on sleep.

Ah and sorry, I kind of glosses over the supermarket part. But yeah, I've always ordered my film online. Not sure I've seen a supermarkets sell film in Finland aside from 35mm disposables and Instax. Unfortunately the chains are different here than Sweden or Norway, we have our own "retail mafias".

I shop prices from many local dealers, but availability is random and Kamerastore.com might be the only one selling outside the country and they rarely have the best offers.

Some stuff (Acros II etc) I get from the German fotoimpex.com, delivery costs more but 10+ order is somewhat cheaper.

Looks magnificent. I've been slowly coming around to consider the "characteristics" of cheap or old lenses can often be preferrable over modern clinically sharp quality optics.

Looks like I deleted my iNaturalist account. You too can do it over the next 6 seconds.

Giving life to failed photographs from a test roll of a lens with misaligned focus. Luckily I was able to fix it myself. The Ebay seller considered it "mint and in fully working condition".
