My wife has a recurrent, early appointment in the Cow Hollow neighborhood of San Francisco, so I have been spending about hour or so each week shooting shop windows at about dawn. All these: Hasselblad 501C, 60 mm Distagon, HP5+. My first venture into stand development: Rodinal 1:100 for one hour, 30 second agitation to start and two inversion at 30 minutes. Very sharp, but lots of grain with this combo. Not sure I would recommend it to others.

Oh man, I want that f1.2 for my favorite Pentax MX. I love me a Pentax, nearly any old Pentax. I shot a H3 for 50 years, almost my only camera all that time!
The damn video guys have made that Pentax lens impossible to buy, but I do have a Nikkor F1.2, so...
But I like the tiny size of an MX, I have an ME but it doesn't work and ...
this is porn

I've never had an MX. Lot of people like it. I did some shots of my Spotmatic F too. I don't remember when I picked up that f1.2 but it had to be 20 years ago. I also have a SMC A* 300mm f4. A pretty compact 300mm to say the least. Here is a shot with that ME Super SE and 50mm f1.2 using Panatomic-X.
