    This year I took my free gift CANON A1 loaded with some outdated FUJI Superia Xtra 800 that I downrated after tests to 250 ASA. All these pics are scanned from 6x4" prints done by SigFoto Lab. Lighting conditions ranged from strong Sunlight to overcast and shade -- I had the camera on Tv ( Shutter Priority) and used 1/250 and 1/500th second most of the time. The CANON has the famous Canon 'Squeak'problem with the shutter due to age and dried up lubricant. I am going to see if I can fix it !

    Some nice images, for outdated film you have good results, Peter. The people here are a bit strange but each to there own.
    Question, did you shoot it at box speed or adjusted the iso setting for the film's age ?
