Plus they had on hand a pile of film for sale, used equipment and the one thing I forgot, a camera strap. Because I mean I like supporting these local camera shops, especially when they still support the film photography community. After welcomes, introductions, and directions given by the venerable Michael Raso and the hosts of the event the Ann Arbor Area Crappy Camera Club (A3C3) Mark O&#8217;Brien and several others who were to lead us in three separate groups around the city. Being a junkie for university architecture I followed Mark&#8217;s group with just one camera in tow this time around, the Nikon F2 Photomic and the 50mm lens.<\/p>\n<p><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22178002465\/in\/album-72157657434953444\/\" title=\"The Lone Statue\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5692\/22178002465_c706da276e_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"668\" alt=\"The Lone Statue\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikon F2 Photomic &#8211; AI-S Nikkor 50mm 1:1.4 &#8211; Fomapan 200 (FPP EDU 200) @ ASA-200 &#8211; Kodak Xtol (1+1) 8:30 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 682px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22188288501\/in\/album-72157657434953444\/\" title=\"Doors\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/648\/22188288501_b98bedcbaa_b.jpg\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Doors\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikon F2 Photomic &#8211; AI-S Nikkor 50mm 1:1.4 &#8211; Fomapan 200 (FPP EDU 200) @ ASA-200 &#8211; Kodak Xtol (1+1) 8:30 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 659px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22178016305\/in\/album-72157657434953444\/\" title=\"The Law\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5826\/22178016305_1b7122c3cd_b.jpg\" width=\"659\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"The Law\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">>Nikon F2 Photomic &#8211; AI-S Nikkor 50mm 1:1.4 &#8211; Fomapan 200 (FPP EDU 200) @ ASA-200 &#8211; Kodak Xtol (1+1) 8:30 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p>Of course, the highlight of the trip was seeing all my friends from the FPP, Michael, Mat, Leslie, Mark, Joseph, Kevin, JJ, and make a pile of new ones in the process!

Of course, there were giveaways and plenty of Mr Brown Iced Coffee (which I needed badly to get home that night).
