So finally after buying the Olympus µ-II from Ebay and running two rolls of (unknown) B/W film through it… I finally got the developed film back, scanned on the CD.
I must say, I am a little disheartened by the results; but maybe I shouldn’t be, considering it took me quite an effort getting accustomed to the “parallax”, and then there’s this film I never used and it stood on the table for a while before I sent it out for developing.
Out of 2 rolls of film, I could salvage 4-6 “decent” pictures that I can show around… definitely feeling a really big blow on self-esteem!! 😦
Let me know what ya’ll think ?!

The one with the people walking in the white hall is my favorite. Lot of character, yet so much empty space, or, as some call, “negative” space. 🙂

Thanx for the comment Bloom… but I did see the contact sheet and it was my first time for me using the Mju-II. So I didn’t have a pre-visualisation of what to expect and more importantly, the problem with parallax was overwhelming.
Hopefully, I will load it again with both b/w and color this time round and see how it turns out this time – but it’ll have to wait a bit! Getting just 2 rolls of b/w film dev. and scanned got me $32 poor!
It’s just crazy – I def. need to get me a scanner if I wanna shoot film.
