Welcome to the forum & sorry about your family loss. How long to Banf Np? from where you live & do you have a room for rent=Haha. I would think it is a landscapers photographers dream location up there. I have 2 rolls of unused kodak 200 gold in my fridge for about 16 years. Thinking of putting one in the Canon AE1 Program just for kicks.
Happy shooting.
Happy shooting.

Welcome: I am happy to hear you are trying film.... (show quote)
No darkroom equipment. My father-in-law was simply an amateur - he actually got the camera to use in his shop class. He was a shop teacher in rural Saskatchewan, and thought the camera would be useful. He also took a lot of family slides w/it, which we have. Nice for my wife to have these, and for our four kids to see what life was like back on the farm, "back in the day" (though not so far back "In the Day!)

Banff's about 90 minutes away. Lake Louise, two hours. We can see the Rockies from our neighborhood, as well as the old Olympic Ski Jump/bobsleigh runs from the '88 Olympics! It is a good place to film both city/street scenes, as well as nature/landscape shots. I also love filming "rural", on the farm, walking the gravel roads...

That ME Super is a fine camera, so compact! I used my father's for several years then left it at a park. I bought a replacement on eBay for fun a couple of years ago since I still had the nice Pentax SMC lenses.
I am excited to shoot this weekend. Also have some 120 film to use in an old Holga for the weekend!
