[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Thanks to Nathan and Steve, et al, who kindly advised me on my upcoming trip to St. Malo France. I was surprised to find out how cool it is there now, I will dress accordingly. I seriously considered going hard core and radical this time, photographically, and just taking my trusty M3 with new version 50/2.8 collapsible Elmar and Tri-X alone to be as minimalist as possible. When I restrict myself to this combo, I generally get many more good keepers per roll than if I take a kit. Can't quite bring myself to do it this time though, but the kit I will have is quite small all of it, M7, 50/1.4 Asph, 28 Summicron and 90/4 collapsible Elmar (new) will fit in a bag 6X6X3 inches and the whole weighs 4.5 lbs. Two extra rolls of film also will fit making 3 rolls with the one in the camera. Hoods are on all lenses also. Wish me luck, I will post some pix when I return. JB
