I've revisited this image - tooted 15-06-20 - seeing there was more detail/marks in the negative than resulted in the output of the first 'print'

[A pretty bleak day really, as it was blowing a gale which was creating a minor sand storm. So, again lighting wasn't great for this film, EI: rating and Developer combination, I feel]

[Camera & Lens are fine. DiaFIne did its job & pulled out the detail in the Neg. So, just the film, EI: rating & exposure were not really as good as they could/should have been.]

That's a roll of Fomapan 400 Action rated at EI:320ISO developed - first film through and out of my Konica T-3/Hexanon AR 50mm f1.4.

Negs look okay. Though I'll know more when film is dried and scanned.

After my 3rd dev with 'Duo-Step', I find it a very clean, quick and relatively straight forward process. I'm not so sure that the grain isn't, ever so slighty, more noticeable? 📷🎞👍😎

Oyster 2000 Camera Bag.

I can tell you that this #Oyster2000 camera bag is machine washable - as it has just been washed in one. Very nicely has it scrubbed up too. 🤗

This is the bag that came with the lens that came with my #NikonF801.

Mdina Glassware of Malta.

Covered in dust as it hasn't moved since the UK Covd-19 lockdown. I think it goes quite well against the blue backdrop. 📷👍😎

The Nikon F801 that came my way a few days ago. The lens is one I already had and not the lens the body came with. The two pin remote control cover is now on my Nikon F4s. 📷🎞👍😎
