Tele Trek - Going Really Tight With the Olympus Pen F



As regular readers of this blog will know, I am very attached to my Olympus Pen F half-frame SLR. These photos are from a roll which was exposed last summer. Most of the photos are made with a Pentacon (?) 200 mm lens - since sold - which makes it a 300 on a half-frame camera. The lens was larger than the camera body! but the kit was nowhere near being heavy or bulky.




One can't expect tack-sharp photographs neither from half-frame negatives or the lens. Never mind.





The church is in Uppsala - where also Sweden's oldest university is situated.



On a sunny day getting decent exposure times wasn't a problem. Once indoors I had to find support to be able to make long exposures.






As I said - there are students in Uppsala...

Digi Bewe Oh

I really like the look of the b&w pictures that I get out of the Samsung NV7 digital camera. I only use it for black & white photography since the colour pictures are very bleak. At least when compared to the ones that I get with my Fujifilm cameras. And the grains really evoke the impression of black & white film. A friend of mine documents solitary bees making homes behind this plexi glass screen. No digital tweaking was made apart from the flying bee picture. These pictures are straight out of the camera.
