    This was a shot from Cruagh from June. One of my favourite crappy lenses, the infamous Helios 44, and Fuji 200.

    That same camera, interestingly, failed recently, I have and entire roll of film consisting of about 5 shots, and then the other 31 shots all on the one bit of film, transport mechanism decided to give up the ghost. It's one of my favourite cameras to shoot M42 lenses on because it has a kind of makeshift aperture priority mode. The shutter button has quite a long throw, and when you press it, it stops down the lens, THEN activates the light meter, takes a reading, and uses that to calculate the shutter speed. So ... neat.

    Luckily I have another 2 identical ones :-D
