I just did a B&W film job for our Geography dept. They needed informal B&W headshots to match ones done on film going back years. It was fun to bring out a High-Eyepoint F3, fast glass and HP5. I have adapters to use AI Nikkors on EOS digital bodies, but I can't seem to get good focus with the dimmer viewfinders. The F3 was so CLEAR. Even though I use film cameras all the time for myself, I'm so used to digital at work that it took me a few shots to remember to wind the film. Then I inspection developed three kinds of film in the same batch - FP4, HP5 and High Speed Infrared.
