Haha I like how the helmet says impact on it. It looks like you proved them right!

Hey guys, I'm completely new to photography but would like to get into some casual stuff this summer, mainly outdoors. I found a Nikon FM2 and a Vivitar v2000 in my parents' closet, if that means anything to you guys. They have a lens attached to each of them but I don't really know what size they are -- hell, I couldn't even figure out how to detach them.

I come to this thread in hopes that you guys will be willing to answer my stupid questions, unless there's another thread which I completely missed. If that's the case, please just point me in the right direction.

My first question is what kind of film to buy. Seeing as how I'm new, I was just going to go to Wal-Mart or something and pick up a few rolls. I asked my dad about it and he said ISO 100 was the standard for film in Taiwan, but apparently in America the standard is ISO 200. Wal-Mart sells ISO 200 and ISO 400 film; will I see much of a difference between either of them?

I just ordered chemicals and other darkroom equipment to deveolop black and white film in a developper tank. I'm really excited and i've read a lot about it, but i'm just wondering if anyone has any tips in general that they've learned over the years. also, how do you guys regulate the temperature of your chemicals if they're powder and are premixed?

I hope to get some pics up this weekend since i'll be getting all of my stuff on friday.

So I kind of got downsized. I didn't lose my job, so much as I lost my contracted hours. Before we found out who was going to have to take a pay cut we went out on the piss. This is was my lab manager, it was her job that was made redundant but now she's doing what was my job and I'm thinking of quitting.

so what do I do now I have more free time?
- go on critical mass with my housemates, my job was to power the sound system bike


- stare at the sun on the wall

- hang around on my friend's roof

- have an awesome bbq with my housemates




- spend more time cruising around on trains


I don't know what to do with my time, and tomorrow is my birthday and I don't know what I should do to celebrate it.
