Camera: #Canonflex from 1959, 58mm f/1.2 lens @ f/11, Kentmere 100. Only one shot before it jammed!

When I opened my #Canonflex to clean it, I found a partially exposed roll of film from the early 1990s (#Kodak Gold 200, so had to be after 1987). So.. sent to be processed. I guess this is my first #film image in 30 years. This is only a 1.5 megapixel scan; color balanced and lightly retouched in Photoshop. Really has the film feel. #ulysses #fingerlakes #upstateny #analogphotography Thanks @bosak for the impetus...

Dug out the family’s three film SLRs over the last few days: a #Canonflex, a #canon FTb, and Judy’s Pentax ME Super. The Canonflex works, and is a beautiful all-mechanical camera; but it’s a 1959 camera with lenses that desperately need CLA, and so far nobody will touch it. The FTb works but has an intermittent film-advance issue. The Pentax works, but needs batteries for shutter control.
