Loving polaroid. It's teaching me how to judge composition and light. Before I was just taking wank pictures on a DSLR, and about 5-10% were any good.

In my quest for a medium format camera I'm now thinking of getting a Yashica Mat instead of the Bronica.

Came across this photostream on flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robbbbbb/
The first couple of pages are photos taken with a Yashica Mat. LOVE THEM ALL.

Also seen some of yours Hurb which are brilliant, that Jag photos especially. The quality out of the Yashica looks amazing.

I love twin lens reflex cameras the yashica is a fun camera.

The jag pictures were the bronica though.

Oh. haha.
I got confused.

Whatever though, your Yashica photos are great too.

the yashica might be a safer bet as it is complete, where as with a slr there at bits and bobs you can add to it which can get a bit obsessive(maybe thats just me?

Also forgot to add if you have any questions about the yashica just ask.

Went to see Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros tonight. At Manchester Cathedral! Such an amazing venue, and they weren't half bad either. Brilliant gig.

Got a few shots whilst waiting for it to start. Not many of the gig, I didn't have the best view. Cathedrals are great but there lots of pillars in the way.

It was really dark inside, and very smoky. I was shooting at ISO3200, F2.0, and 1/60 or 1/30 shutter speed.
They still came out a bit underexposed but usable with a bit of photoshop work.

Yeah the Fuji has amazing high iso performance. One of the best things about it.

Micro 4/3rds cameras are hugely popular and now Canon have released their first mirrorless system camera. This ugly thing:

It's not actually a micro 4/3rds. It has a bigger APS-C sized sensor, like in a mid-range DSLR. But that doesn't stop it looking shit.
Especially when you compare it to this mockup/rumour image that floated around:

► Show Spoiler

I will stick with my fixed lens Fuji X100 for digital.

Grabbed this one from your photostream because I really like it. There's loads for the eye to do and stuff to work out without it ever not looking lovely
