Went camping to Big Sur (300 miles north of Los Angeles) with the Santa Monica College photo dept. students- about 70 of us. Equip. used was 2 R4's with a 60 macro, a 24 2.8, and a 28-70 zoom, a Nikon F3HP with a 24, 50-300 zoom and a 500 mirror, and a Pentax 67 with a 45 and 75 mm. Subject shot was seascape and " leaves and twigs". I sure is nice to get out of civilization for a few days- you don't know what you miss by staying in the city. Shot 16 rolls- Velvia, Scala, Tri-X, Plus-X, Agfacolor and Fujicolor. Equip worked well-but, I'm needing service on all my Leica cameras-the controls are all stiff- and my R5 is still broke. The lenses used were flawless. Can't wait to process/get processed so I can do some printing. The Velvia will be used in my Ilfochrome printing class. ps- I didn't even think of titanium finishes or expensive scotch- drank beer- some of the faculty drank expensive port.
