Istanbul B&W with a Konica

I took these images with my Konica Auto S3, a compact rangefinder film camera that I brought with me to Istanbul, and Ilford FP4 film. It is a great deal of fun to shoot and the images are very good as well. It is a little unusual in that you can set the shutter speed, but not the depth of field. I have had this camera for many years, but only recently began to use it. Actually, I lost it in my house for a decade or so. Ironically I was cleaning up and put it in a bin out of the way and forgot where it was. Still, it is none the worse for being lost, judge for yourself!

Left the Darkslide in !

Here is the only frame from the first roll I took with the Kiev 88. I used flash so I got a correct exposure, then left the dark slide in for the remaining shots I took outside and therefore did not expose any other frame on the film! Oh well, at least I got one!

Kiev 88 and FP4

I took these with a Kiev 88 camera and Ilford FP4 film. The camera was new to me and I was trying to figure it out. Still I think these came out nicely seeing as the camera had no meter and I had to use a handheld meter and hope the shutter speeds were accurate! Take a look:
