Jan 10: Dial

Day 11 of the freeze and it's heavy overcast. There's a half-arsed snow falling. So I elect not to go out. No icy pics today. Instead I played about with my Kodak Retinette. The film memo dial caught my attention. Ektachrome, Plus-X and Tri-X are still readily available today. Although I'm sure the formulations are different now. Pan X disappeared some time ago, and Kodachrome last year. Is my Retinette going slowly obsolete? I wonder what I should set the dial to if I use Fuji film...

It is a good thing you have so many interesting toys to play with during this inclement weather! ;-)

Man, Ray's on it. I was gonna say this looked a wee German, too.

I'm guessing that was made in West Germany looking at the font!
