Took the Large Format out again.....

Loaded everything up in my F.64 Large bag.

Not only can it hold my Toyo 45G & filter set, stop watch, Minolta Spotmeter, dark cloth, misc stuff - but I can fit my Lumix G9, Oly 40-150 pro, and I threw the Minolta a7 35mm w/50mm2.8 in there for good measure.

Unfortunately the place I went is only open 9am - 4pm and it is rarely an overcast / cloudy day in AZ so I was stuck with overhead sunlight.

The main shot I wanted was interior of an old church.

We will see how they turned out. I know the first six shots I took with Catlabs 80II - I accidentally set my light meter to the wrong ISO - so I am going to have to fix that in developing, but the remaining 8 shots of Ilford HP5 I should develop normally.
 
Developed (Cinestill DF96 Monobath) and scanned (Sony Nex-7 w/ 50mm 2.8 macro Minolta) the first 6 images. This is the second time out with this camera - and I am pretty happy with the results. I was somewhat limited by only having one lens with me (Nikkor 180mm) but was glad I didn't have any major oopsies. Biggest issue I have - is learning to slow down.

Great results. :D I particularly like the shot of the church interior.

That was the one shot I really wanted visiting that place - and I am glad it turned out ok. Lol This trip taught me I need a wider lens as well.
