@moment The Konica Minolta Maxxum 5D. A-mount before it was Sony! IBIS before it was… anywhere else! I loved that thing. Still works! Who really needs more than 6.1 MP anyway

@joshuahall @moment @FujifilmX_US Beautiful colors!

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@moment Thank you! The lighting was unreal 🌫️

For the nerds: Leica M4-P, 35mm Summicron v3, Kodak Vision3 250D. Shot at 1/15th @ f/2, processed in C-41.

@JUNlPER The best thing about getting gas on a motorcycle is that it’s cold! A refreshing cooldown in summer, at least on bikes where your body touches the tank. Overheating in traffic? Just get a little gas and cool off. It’s a delight

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@HamishGill Lovely!

@petapixel The Maxxum 5D was my first camera and I still have it!

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@linusnhiscamera Ultramax is the absolute day-to-day king (if you can even find it anymore). Vision3 250D is the perfect replacement IMO if you’re willing to go through all the remjet trouble

@austinkleon I truly don’t know how it took that long 😅😅😅

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@moment A trip to the farmer’s market on Vision3 250D 🥬

@DruePhoto The DR settings force your base ISO up and push the shadows. So if you’re using DR400, you’ll be at a min ISO of 800 (on the XE2, I think), and it will increase detail in the shadows at the expense of higher noise. Good for some JPEG uses, bad if you want the lowest possible ISO

@DruePhoto I’m actually selling all my Fuji gear, including the 18/2 (and X-E3, smaller, better!) so let me know if you are interested 😬

@DivesOfChi I tell everyone I meet about the bartender who sings Puccini to reset the vibe when too many people bomb

@WBXylo @BlackwolfOates @whet A round of mind-bendingly syncopated applause for this tweet!

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@dieworkwear Such a delight to see Mark Cho as an example of proper silhouette!

[Nathan Bobinchak @bobinchak]

@dieworkwear It’s true for watches too. The sheer number of machine hours to make the parts & the person-hours to put them together is astronomical for fine watches. I honestly say that Rolex MSRPs are good, fair deals (whether you can get something at that price, of course, is another thing)

@HamishGill Analog forever!

@oneunderscore__ Morton Williams can be wackadoo but it sure beats Fairway, and god help Gristedes
