Part of me wants to haul out my 4 x 5, load some sheets of film and go out with my 45 lbs. of equipment to do black and white work.Silbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12561606347525787459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25407346.post-23444186902691883972007-09-26T17:36:00.000-05:002007-09-26T17:36:00.000-05:00I also have an AE-1... and an FTB, and another man...I also have an AE-1... and an FTB, and another manual camera body with a top-down viewfinder.
