No problem whatsoever - for me: I got rid of my F4S because it never auto-loaded properly on the first try; I had traded away my F and F2 Photomic by this time, and to get rid of the F4S I went backwards to the F3 which was better, except that unlike my other, older Nikons, without a battery it was stuck with one useless mechanical speed. I think the F2 was the final Nikon film masterpiece.

That F3 camera was almost never used, and I still have it today, where it lives in the dark beside my Minolta Flashmeter 111. Regarding the consumables: for 135 colour it had to be Kodachrome 64 Pro or nothing.

Those were the days!

Happy New Year, Francisco.

It was Kodachrome 25 for me. I'm not sure how I got along all those years with an ASA 25 film though. Today it seems unthinkable.

In some respects the 25 ASA stuff was better; for me, the problem was the contrast was generally going to be too harsh, especially on beaches with only a reflector to help out, and I disliked using those if avoidable.

Thanks Rob and happy New Year to you too

I agree that the Nikon F2 was the final Nikon film masterpiece and it will probably outlast any other machine on this earth, but the F6 is a joy to use (and I don't care what other people think)

I loved Kodachrome 25 for landscapes and 64 for people / general use, but I'm sure they will not come back. In regards to E100, I like the color palette

Every Which Way But Loose. The words popped into my head even before I raised the camera to my eye, and definitely before I remembered that it was the title of a B movie starring Clint Eastwood and an orangutan.

A B movie? Surely not. It's great fun.

Ya gotta remember, Jeremy, it's Hollywood deciding whether a movie is an A or a B. Hollywood!

But consider that there are C, D, E and "holy F, what was that?" movies.  ;D
