Well, new toys are always fun. Just got my F5 yesterday. Recently redescovered analog photography.
Not gonna bash dslr’s, but there is still something magical about shooting film.
Ive had my F5 for about 10 years… Awesome camera… Doubles well as a weapon if someone tries to mug you cause the camera wont break… Ive had a 50mm 1.8 on it for almost as long as I can remember… Great combo for street
Same combo here. A 50mm 1.8D. Finished my first rol. For some reason my old Nikon FM with an E series 50mm can’t seem to produce sharp images. The same lens with an adapter is razorsharp on my GF1. Bizar.
Have always wanted to get a FM but they are still really expensive here in NZ… Hope the first roll is all good and will look forward to seeing it on your blog Currently dreaming of a Fuji X Pro 1 but lotteries may need to be won
“Doubles well as a weapon if someone tries to mug you” – Dark halide. … I prefer a monopod. Where you sacrifice on impact damage you make up for in reach.
O sweet. It’s got fur!
I realy need to pick up my Rollei. But to much fun with the F5 right now!

I also carry a big flash-light
Monopod is probably the best defence though
