Instant!

Graflex Speed Garphic Optar 135mm f4.7 FUJIFILM FP-100B Instant Film - I have always loved Instant film, especially pull and peel pack films. I recent picked up a Polaroid 405 Back for my Graflex. This my first time using FUJFILM's instant film. The FP-100B seems like a great film. Sharp, good contrast and decent latitude.

Large Format no. 1

Grafex Speed Graphic Optar 1.5 f4.7 Kodak T-Max 400 (expired) Arista 76 Developer 1:1 - Sometime around 1995 I bought a 25 Sheet box of 4x5 Kodak T-Max 400, with the intention of using it with the Speed Graphic I bought in the same year. 16 years later I am finally shooting it. Sometimes life gets in the way.  The film held up surprisingly well. The expiration date is 01/1996, but there is minimal base fogging and the sensitivity does not seem to be that fair off. Scanned using a HP ScanJet 5370c.
