A new home for the Jupiter-12
I got a Russian Jupiter-12 35mm f 2.8 LTM from a nice young lady who in turn bought it from respected photographer, Lester Lesesma who himself is a rangefinder kind of guy. The lens which is 43 years old yields decent images. I tried it on EPA photog Mike Alquinto above which was mounted on a Leica M4-2 anf shot at 1/125 f 2.8 and Fuji NPH film ISO 400. The lens is a keeper

RF PILIPINAS

strange paraphernalia

Jay signals start of the film processing workshop
jay agitates film tank in cold water buffer
Rain, wam and Kat seems to be in trance watching Jay
more agitation
I was shocked to read an article in the April 2007 issue of The Digital Journalist saying that the next quake in photography will be an intensity 10. Apparently, there is a movement going on in the newspaper circuit in the U.S. slowly easing out digital still cameras in the arsenal of photojournalists in the field and replacing them with HD video cameras .See article here
Not to be alarmed, a group of photography purists elsewhere in the world remains unfazed. In fact their dedication to traditional film photography is proof that despite everyday breakthroughs in digital photography, rangefinder cameras and film will continue to survive the painful revolution.
