Thanks, that's a good call! I guess I would have to wait for the Film Challenge 2020, but I would be up for sharing photos on Dyxum for sure!

Well, this is the Konica/Minolta forum, so, here are a couple of Konica shots (Konica IIIA with a 50/1.8 - probably bought at a PX overseas in the 1950s). Ektar 100.

OK. And a few Minolta ones - also Ektar 100 - from a Maxxum 7.

I recently won an auction on 3 Minolta AF lenses, and one of them came with a QTsi camera attached to it. It's sort of a P&S with interchangeable lenses.  Still had a half used roll of Kodak Gold200 in it, and looked to be in perfect shape.  Stuck a battery into it, and figured I'd shoot out the roll just to see what was on it.  It's so simple to use that I almost felt guilty pressing the shutter release. Used the 24-105mm lens.  These are the pics I took with it. Actually I was thinking it might make a good in-the-truck camera for those times when for some strange reason I don't have one of my "real" cameras with me.

Lake Perez. Penn State's Shaver's Creek Experimental Forest

Local farm.

Minolta Dynax 7.  Kodak Gold200. Tamron 70-300mm Tele-Macro.  My neighbor's thoroughbred  named Disco.  The lens tends to "soft" focus below f8.0...in this case I(and others) liked the result.

Nice.  I gotta try Kodak Gold at some point!
