Yay camera!

So yesterday I went thrifting with my mama. As we were leaving I saw a bag with "Pentax" written on it, in a glass display case. I was curious. I asked the lady if I could see what was in the bag and she opened it for me. Inside was a Pentax P30T, along with three lenses and a flash, all for less than $30 (with the bag, of course). Sweet.

Well, my mom bought that bad boy for me (thanks mama, you are seriously the most generous!). There was a working battery in it so I just had to wait for Branden to get home from his softball game (my camera bag with some new film was in the truck that he had). Last night and today I filled up the roll as quickly as I could (note to self: don't do this. Savour your film. It is expensive to develop! lol). I also got an old roll I had lying around developed!

I'm VERY happy with this pentax and plan on having around for as long as I can :D Maybe give it to my future kid :P haha. I am impressed with the images (this camera was released in 1990, it's as old as I am!) and so happy it came with three lenses!

First a 5dmkii shot of me with the pentax...lol, then immediately following I took one with the "new" camera.

The following are the test shots I took with the pentax:
above 3 images with 50mm f/2
the 2 images above are with Pentax 28-80mm f/3.5
another 50mm shot^


And from that old roll that I developed. It ended up being a roll from August 2011 (shot on Canon AE-1)

Film

Something about the feel of old photos and film that I just love. I just want to go visit all my family's houses and have afternoons to just slowly peruse and immerse myself in the film photos they have of our history.

Me, 1990 (I think)
