Yep, it's a tank. BUT a beautiful tank....and you should get some stunning images with that bad boy.

You better show it off, Mohain, I think you have a fan club here..... :lol:

Haha, thanks. Still a day to go!!

I've got some reading to do in the meantime. My copy of "The Master Photographer's Lith Printing Course by Tim Rudman" just arrived :)

Tim is a sweetheart! If you get a chance to take one of his or more of his classes, take them!

I can also vouch for Tim.

And hoo boy, if you start in on lith, why, you might just never leave the house. :lol: So much fun!

Tim's actually doing a Lith printing course in London in April but I can't afford it now that I've bought the Mamiya (which is still to arrive ... gahhhh). I use a community darkroom at the moment which is a bit of a drive away and only on during certain week days/nights and weekends, I don't have the room at home at the moment. They're very accommodating though and are keen for me to get involved with some lith printing. Once I've swatted up I think I'll being taking some time off work to lock myself away in the darkness for days. A wise use of my paid holiday I say (the GF would disagree though) ;)

ahhh....what a beauty! :heart:

I'm so pumped for you - you are going to have a blast shooting with this - the craftsmanship makes them such a pleasure to use.

Can't wait to see your first images.
