Good lord, man! Don't insult this fine camera with scanning the results. Get
an enlarger and print! Start watching for 5x7 enlargers right now!

In a recent fit of madness, I acquired a Fuji rangefinder which produces 6x9
images on that archaic medium known as film. I just received my test rolls
from the lab, which proved to me that the camera functions correctly. When I
scan those huge negatives on my Epson 700 at its maximum resolution, the
result is a file of about 280 megapixels. But it is not sharpness or details
that keeps film interesting; rather, it is the fine gradation of the tones:

More to come. I am right now shooting a roll of Ilford SFX with a red
filter. In our sunny climate, it should give good results. Photographty is a
big tent, and I enjoy visiting different areas of that tent.

Cheers,
Nathan
