Pentax ME Super – tim dobbs photography

This year I am going to shoot more film and also blog more.

Last year I was way down on both due to various reasons I won’t go into so my first blog of 2023 is a roll from last year.

I have shot 2 rolls already this year but I have a few rolls from last year that I had not even bothered to edit until now.

This was a roll of Kodak Ultramax 400 that I shot using my Pentax ME Super a few months ago, I have not shot much Ultramax before and was very happy with how it looked.

The detail was plentiful and I was particularly happy with how it rendered the greens especially as it was a pretty overcast day, I imagine this film would really pop in the sunshine.

The development and scans were done by the excellent Filmdev.

Anyway here is the whole roll, comments most welcome.

We managed a short break to Tenby back in the Whitsun holidays which I blogged here https://timdobbsphoto.com/2021/07/30/short-tenby-break-on-lomo-cn400-cn800/ where I took numerous cameras and film but didn’t use most of them.

So when we returned to Tenby for our Summer hols I decided to just take one camera and less film choices .. my Pentax ME Super with the 28mm f3.5 & 50mm f1.7 along with some Kodak Ektar & Lomo CN800.

The weather was pretty great with only a few hours each day where it was a bit overcast, the majority of the days were in glorious sunshine.

When we came home I sent the films off to Filmdev who did a great job with the scans as usual.

Luckily I shot most of the Ektar on the first day with was probably the brightest day by far as you will see here …
