Morning at the beach testing the FT3

[Xia_Ke]

An uncle of mine had a Nikkormat FT3 that he wasn't using any longer and passed it, along with a few lenses, on to me. I left for work a little early this morning and took it down to the beach to shoot a test roll. My main concern was the meter. Seemed a touch off playing with it the other day but, the negatives came out well for the most part. It reads a little different than my other Nikkormat but, I guess thats to be expected for 30 year old cameras. When I went out this morning I shot with a Nikon E-series 50mm f/1.8 which was one of the lenses I got with it. This is a sweet little lens. Super low profile which is good and bad as part of me wishes there was a little more to the focusing ring. All in all made for a fun little breather before heading to work. Here's a few shots from the morning.

Oh yeah, and since this is the film forum, these were shot with TMAX 100 that was pushed to 400
