8mm Novice Buys FOMA.
First time I have ever shot on film. Easy to load. I don't know much about f-stops so I'm trying to self-educate. My subject warrants the use of black and white (color isn't easy to come by). My images are grainy in some shots and some are razor sharp but I'm just having fun with this and I'm glad that there is still film around for 8mm. Now only if Kodak with just pick up the ball they dropped about their new Super8 camera, I'd use that.
