It's all explained at the webpage, but briefly:

1. Jupiter-8 lens (acquired just last month from Joseph Ho)
2. Legacy Pro 100 film
3. Ansco Permadol
4. Acufine

Click here for further enlightenment!  :rolleyes: Scroll down the comments to the "October 2011" heading.  Your comments greatly appreciated!

P.S. Please pardon the dust.  Smiley

I like them both, Pete, but the Acufine roll looks a bit darker.  Exposure difference, or developement?  And some great looking Canons.  I might get a P one of these days.

Pete, that is an awesome post.
First I'm glad that Garland Camera fixed your camera properly, so you won't hate me for recommending them Smiley

And then congratulations on your new grandchild! and for what seems to be a delightful trip.

Looks good ... Acufine is a fine fine drug. :-)

Thanks, Phil, Will and Larry!  I'm not sure why the Acufine shots are darker; the short developing time, though, may be a factor.

Will, I was very pleased by the service from Garland Camera, and will recommend them to anyone else, should I be asked.

Thanks, Julio and James.  Just wish my grandson wasn't half a country away.  He's closer to you, James, in Connecticut.  And getting bigger and sweeter every day, if those regularly sent cell phone videos from my daughter-in-law are any clue.
