i found an Agfa RSX II 100 that i now substitute as my standard.
also a Velvia 50

anyway, i think id much rather get a voigtlander before i even consider this
edit: just cause i always wanted to get in to film...and rangefinders

Bah. Any post processing should be exactly that... post. Cameras should record whatever is infront of them and any changes should be made if needed afterwards. Film modes are stupid IMO. Just buy velvia if you want velvia.

you should probably take up smoking crack instead, it'll be cheaper in the long run.

ehh.. i really am not about to start buying leica lens. if anything, i dont even need a voigtlander. id want a little canonet just for shits. as long as i can get a fast/sharp enough lens and full manual, im happy.

I would suggest getting an electro 35 before a canonet. Better lens, and half the price.

**.A.K.4.7.** · 03-01-2011 02:07 PM

Nah... an Olympus 35RC

Tiny, fully manual - which means the meter doesn't have to be accurate for it to work.

Boom.

God I can't wait to develop these color rolls. I can't wait to see what this zeiss does on color.
How about a cheesey mirror self portriat?
Maybe I should do a picture book on the trash of north america.

i get you, but if you do happen to shoot jpg instead of raw, like it or not, youre gonna be using those presets (most likely standard if you dont ever tweak that part of your camera)
i do shoot raw 98% of the time but if i just want a quick process, ill just use the canon software instead of photoshop. itll keep the preset(if i want to) instead of it being completely raw/flat.
otherwise ill do the full edit

i would if i can find anyone selling it locally, 2nd hand. ive seen a couple canonets and thats really the only reason ive gone to research about it and thought its alright even without interchangable lenses

now that oly looks interesting. im gonna read about that more.

I'm sure most cameras do this also, but I always use my lx3 on jpg+raw, because the dynamic b&w is just so damn good on it, but I like having the raw just incase I want color.

**zio** · 03-01-2011 02:50 PM

here are the difference.
all the same settings. nothing tweaked besides converting to jpg (which i frgot to switch in camera)
"3 f3.5 iso400 tungsten WB

Standard

Agfa RSX II 100

CLEAR (a custom preset found in the Canon website)

Meh. I still reckon if you want your clean cut digital images to "downgrade" to a scratchy grainy film look, then just shoot film!

loving the zeiss 35/2 ZM

Regretting selling the zeiss already. SO SO sharp but 1.4 is needed for me. Maybe I'll buy another one one day for daytime shits.

awesome!
i also want to find out if hes done a review on any of the canonets....just to see what he has to say about it.
i know its been compared to the leica m3 in some reviews but id just like a consistency in opinion, coming from the same reviewer.
looks like im leaning towards this oly though....but still want my prime 1st and foremost.
ef 28/1.8 or voigtlander ultron 40/2 SLII hmmmm
