Week one - The pics!

Finally, some results!

I collected my first set of pictures yesterday, having had the film developed and scanned by Harrison Cameras in Sheffield and I'm quite pleased with the results.

Week one of this project/madness saw me using a Ricoh KR-10 Super along with the standard Rikenon 50mm f/2 lens and some out of date Fujicolor C200 film. Although I've imported the scans into Lightroom the only editing I've done is a little straightening, slight cropping and a smidgeon of sharpening.

I'm quite taken by the Ricoh, the shutter release has a bit of a hair trigger and there's no auto-exposure lock but other than those tiny issues it's difficult to find fault with the camera. The standard 50mm lens seems pretty good too with only its minimum focusing distance of 0.6m (as opposed to the 0.45m of my Nikon AIS and Olympus OM lenses) letting it down a little.
