So _that_ is why I take hours on a photo foray and it only feels like
minutes. I got into trouble numerous times when living with the parentals,
because I was so absorbed I was always late back. It can still happen now, I
have a wife to pacify instead.
Just took the newly acquired OM-2S body out with a 50/1.4 MC and shot half
a roll of Kodachrome 64. Going out again early tomorrow to finish that
roll off . . . and the Ektachrome EPN in the OM-4 body . . . and the Tmax
100 in the Contax IIIa RF. The OM-2S has a very interesting shutter sound
. . . something between the crisp, sharp OM-4 and soft shoop of the OM-1n
mechanical . . . which must be the secondary mirror. Operates almost
identically to the OM-4 in AE Mode and very close to the OM-1n and OM-4 in
Manual Mode (except that it's spot metering only). Not certain if I can
get into the Program Mode; too used to the OM-10 and OM-4 AE Mode and
control it gives.
Knew exactly where I wanted to go and exactly what I wanted to shoot with
it. Got home in about an hour and the "other half" was very shocked. She
had expected I would be out until well after dark!
