24-05-09 more film

I've finally managed to get round to developing some of the many films I'd finished over the last
few weeks. I'm now going trhough the slow process of backfilling my daily shots, and trying to
recall when they were taken. Or guessing as I like to call it....

This was taken with a vivtar ultra wide and slim. It's been billed as a 35mm alternative to the
holga. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say that, but after an intial failure when the ISO of the
film I'd seleced was too low, I've got to say I'm impressed with the second roll. This was 400ISO,
which seems to have made a difference. It's pin sharp in the middle, with anything on the
periphery being blurry and vignetted, a result of the cheap plastic lens.

Unfortunately though the build quality's, well frankly, shit. I snapped the rewind mechanism the
first time I used it, so now have to rewind it with a 20p piece..
