Assuming non-Canon is OK...

These are from my first rolls of 120 film in my Mamiya TLR that I bought in June. I posted a bunch of similar shots back in June or so from the 20D and 40D. This is my first REAL film camera (went digital in 1999). No PP work was done except for cleaning up a little dust from scanning the negs. Composition in 6x6 square format is something I need to work on.

Kodak Portra 160NC. I have some Ilford and T-max B&W to get posted.

Nice...

What did you use for scanning the negs?

Now I miss and regret selling my Mamiya 645 for next to nothing...

These look good. Now that you've shot the show with both, I wonder if you think shooting film was worth it at that venue?

I bought an Epson V500 for the 120 film, but it worked great for scanning about 1200 35mm negatives as well.

Shooting both film and digital at the same event was fun. I need to grow two more arms to carry everything.

One thing about shooting a twin lense; what you see through the top lense is not necessarily what the bottom film lense sees. Things like a left hand pinky finger...;)

Very well done, especially for the first time out with your TLR. ;)
I remember when square was the preferred format of wedding photographers. I used a Bronica SQa. :)

I bought the color Kodak VC and NC just to try it out, but I'll probably go all B&W in the future. Gotta order up some goods to do home developing.
