a foolish pianist posted:I think there are a bunch of us in the midwest. It looks like the camera will get here too late to catch the nice fall colors, though. Maybe it'll bum around Virginia long enough for it to get snowy up here. Wonderful Midwestern states like Pennsylvania and Canada. (I'm in South Dakota).

If I have the camera the week of november 12th I will try and take the camera a mile (almost) underground. Just tossing that out there. The pics won't be that special underground at all, but at least you can say it was there

ShotgunWillie posted:Battery seems to be dead? Put a roll in and advanced it. Now the shutter is stuck and no juice for the battery check at all. Pretty sure that was just someone saying he'd put a new battery in once it reached him. I looked through the thread and noone actually said they put a fresh battery in, so my bet would be on a dead battery.

Imagine 4 goons on the edge of a cliff. The first good gets an AE-1 and falls off a cliff, the 3 remaining goons move up a step, and a new goon shows up. Then they realize the camera fell off the cliff.

ShotgunWillie posted:$27 and 8 days vs $32 and 4 days? The receipt says the box size that you shipped is 10x8x5. You can get a large flat rate box that's 12" x 12" x 5-1/2" (that's inside dimensions, to boot), and it would have shipped to wherever in 2-3 days for about 17 bucks after adding on the tracking number ($15.45 + delivery com + insurance + tax). There's a reason the USPS is losing money man.

gently caress the coasts, send it to me (and I'll throw in a few rolls of film with the box when I pass it on). Qualifications: gently caress all these city folk, I'm going to take pictures of cows in my backyard. COWSNIPE

I know a guy who does k14 processing. This guy is me, and my k14 process is actually just hc110 for a few minutes with some vigorous rubbing to get the remjet off or something. I'll probably shoot a roll of color as a backup
