Developing emulsions

Experimenting with film again, with mixed results… I’m going to blame my roommate’s deficient flatbed-scanner on the relative softness of the photos. Because I’m tired of my screw-mount Ricoh SLR, I’m looking to buy either an Olympus Stylus Epic (a camera everyone’s mom may have had at one point, but with a fast 2.8 lens, spot meter and fantastic fill-flash), an Olympus XA (aperture-priority, rangefinder!) or a Yashica T4 (great lens, waist-level viewfinder). So many options, but I’m leaning toward the XA… I’m going to nab some lunch and then go visit every thrift store in Peoria. Point-and-shoots are where it’s at!

    Hey – I used to own a Stylus Epic. Watch the age related comments you puppy!

    Consider yourself a smart consumer, then! I went ahead and bought the Olympus XA, though… should be here in the next few days.
