@toddrbennett @Deer_Valley @toddrbennett is there any possibility for uphill travel in DV this year? l I know a bunch of us locals that would happily ditch PC, IKON, and EPIC and buy a full DV pass if we could uphill. Any thoughts. Be the Aspen of PC? Pretty please?

@Jpncamerahunter LMK if you need a reference. I can get his name.

@Jpncamerahunter We fix carbon frames from time to time. Calfee has been doing it for years. They wont fix them if they are unfixable. All is not lost. There is also a guy in San Diego that does these if Calfee is full. https://t.co/h473OjAuAd

@Deer_Valley @IkonPass Is there chance there will be an uphill policy next year? Pretty Please? You can be the Aspen of Park City. We will love you and you can charge for it. Maybe? Possible? Pretty Please???

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@Deer_Valley @Deer_Valley looking toward next year - do you have any plans for uphill. I know many of us locals would send it full DV if you guys had uphill. Any chance you would be open to the idea? Aspen style?

@om @sgourley @Neeva gives a few references with their AI equivalent which is useful but in my limited testing with friends and family, nobody seems to go past those or click through. They are trusting the summary as if they are words brought down from heaven.

@om @sgourley @om I believe this is correct. Isnt the next logical step the end of “pages.” What incentive does a content creator have to leave their work on the open web. Doesn't this mean everything behind a paywall/substack?

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@toddrbennett @Deer_Valley Would it be possible to discuss the uphill policy at DV for 2023-2024? Please let me know how best to reach you to discuss. We are all making decisions for passes. Lots of us would go all DV if there is any remote uphill poss.

@8888SEB @Arthousefilmlab @camerafilmphoto No idea if that is the issue here but that is what I was told.

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@8888SEB @Arthousefilmlab @camerafilmphoto When I was researching ECN-2 processing at home Cinestill, QWD, and I think I called freestyle (??) said as soon as that Remjet hits the solutions you are on borrowed time. My conclusion was that ECN was not really viable for home processing because it was not stable/costs.

@bigheadtaco @Casio_USA @FujifilmX_US @york_retro Ok. I see a trend here. This is super cool. I can get behind this.

@sunny16podcast @ILFORDPhoto If you home process and scan, shooting color 120 is cheaper than 35mm IF you include a $$$ factor to account for background stress worrying about replacing your film given that 35mm is hard to find and 120 is abundant. For me that replacement stress is a few bucks per roll.

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@camerakote wait. Are those also serviced inside somehow?

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@8888SEB Depends if parts are interchangeable and you can service old cameras with new parts. Consider watches and cars, vintage sells and prices keep going up. It doesn't matter what happens with the new. I can show lots of examples where a reissue increased vintage prices.

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@leica_camera Any chance on continuing the trend and re-releasing the summarit line of lenses or other legacy lenses as “film specific” rather than calling them entry level? Summarit line was ahead of it’s time.

@anilmistry @anilmistry looking for words of wisdom. Is the 645nii worth the extra $$ vs 645n?

[Leica Lenses for Normal People @Themattw]

@EMULSIVEfilm I say this with ZERO irony, and if I offend anyone so be it, David Hume is the #1 commentator on film photography. Full stop. Another good (and accurate) one.

@benjhaisch Everyone's needs are really different and a camper might be the most personalized thing you own if done right. Needs lots of research ahead of time. Seeing more and more people offload custom builds now it is time to go back to work. I have one from Sync vans if you have q's.
