Just got this F3 and took it to our local botanical gardens to run some test film through it (Kodak 400 Ultramax). I was a little concerned about the condition and .maybe issues with metering/light leaks. I was pleasantly surprised that everything came out fine. Colors appear good without being oversaturated and contrast looks good too. F3 centerweighted metering appears to be pretty spot on. I also had a non AI lens which forced me into stop down metering. Shots appeared to come out ok.









Stopped down metering to F11

They could all use some digital post-processing though.

Most definitely 😁. Just test shots to make sure the camera works.
