<\/p>\nWell I just got my first ever roll of film developed from my Olympus OM2n and I’m very pleased with the results. Actually, I’m just pleased with the fact that the camera even worked! I wasn’t sure if the light meter would still work after 30 years, and I wasn’t certain how well I’d changed the light seals, so I was very happy when everything seemed to work as it should.
\nOne frustrating thing however is my film scanner. It’s just a cheap flatbed scanner and with a film negative attachment. I really need a proper one, as the one I’m using doesn’t capture anywhere near enough detail and makes the pictures looks too grainy (more than normal).
\nBut I thought I’d post some up anyway, I’m still pleased with the results, especially considering it was my first ever go with a manual focus camera, and essentially a test roll with this new camera.<\/p>\n
These are just a few taken around my house and at dad’s studio. As I said before, the scanner just doesn’t pick up anywhere near as much detail as it should… Next time I’ll use a proper scanner.<\/p>\n
Edit: Three photos have been corrupted so have been removed from this post.<\/p>\n
