The newly laid path is smoother than a racetrack and a joy to use.

More Gnarliness.

Another splendid gnarly tree on the local footpaths.

Once this was a muddy path and it's now a wide avenue.

This used to be a pain to walk along after a rainy day, but now it's accessible to everyone. Walkers, cyclists and disabled folk on their chariots.

New Blog Post!
This week I leave the farm roads behind and explore the newly repaved footpaths near my home with my FED2 and Ilford's finest HP5+400.

Essai du Fed 2 avec objectif Industar 22, fomapan 200, dev Fomadon Excel.
Je suis déçu, parce que le boitier raye les films. Le rendu de l'objectif ne m'a pas convaincu.

J'aime beaucoup ce boîtier FED 2, et son Industar 22 rétractable. C'est la copie "evoluée" d'un Leica d'avant guerre, et de son Elmar. Le boîtier a un grand viseur unique, un télémétre, un correcteur dioptrique. J'y ai mis une Fomapan 200. On verra...

Current status of my #FED2camera repair project: completely new shutter built from the scratch is installed and it seems to be working somehow. However I have no device to test the shutter speed. I have tried to use my iPhone 240fps and the video shows the 1/500 speed will probably have the same flaw as my first #Fed2 - the slit is narrower at the start of the frame. We will see after the first film tests

Como Lake, Saint Paul, Minn. August, 2022.
Camera: FED-2b
Lens: FED 50mm f3.5
Film: Ilford HP5, exp. 2006
Looks like some shutter lag at the right side of the frame. Still, not too shabby for a 65+ year-old Soviet-era rangefinder.
