These are our favorite beans, from Blue Bottle Coffee in the Mint Plaza. Of course, we always use the Chemex to brew our coffee, it takes longer but so worth the wait.

Some images with expired Fuji 800Z 35mm. Grainy shizz.

    Not bad for expired film…..

    Wonderful… Just a question on your technique using this film + the F100: Do you expose manually or use one of the more auto modes (such as Aperture?) Also, what metering mode do you use for these on your F100? Just curious because I know people love the 800z. I’m just not having that much luck with it. So far I’ve been using Matrix metering & Aperture exposure mode.

    Hi Adrian – For the F-100, I always over expose by one stop. If I put in a roll of say 400 ISO film, I set my ISO to 200. Shoot on Aperture. Have the roll developed as though I shot it at 400. When I shoot with my Hasselblad, everything is manual and I still over expose by one. If I have a roll of 400 ISO film, I set my meter at 200 ISO. There are other methods of over exposing, but that is the method I use. Depending on the situation, light and film, I will sometimes over expose by 2, but that is more rare.

    Merci Beaucoup! How cool – I was just thinking about over-exposing, but by means of changing the recommended shutter speed (while leaving the ISO @ DX), which has a different effect. I too place main emphasis on my choice of Aperture, so I didn’t want to change that. Your ISO method is much smarter. Thanks for the tip!

    Nice set, and nice to see Miss Rollei.
