Through The Viewfinder

I got the old Yashica Mat 124 G and snapped the attached photos this morning. I know not that great but I did get the Mat out after many years on non use. Used the Pany FZ20 and brightness, contrast and midtone levels in the photo software.

vwen, I am sure my meter will work once I replace the dead battery with the alkaline PX625A replacement battery. There is a flickr group that is dedicated to shooting through the viewfinder. In fact one of their members won Grand Price at The Independent Spirit Photo Contest which is part of IFC. The IFC Film Awards are similar to The Sundance Film Festival.
