Haven't been around much due to my other projects. Currently trying to get my drag car ready for the Duct Tape Drags coming up soon. '78 Camaro sh!tbox.
We have no luck in those huge jackpot lotteries. The odds are tremendously against you. We have much better luck playing the smaller lottery games like Keno when at the local restaurant/pub enjoying some food and drink.
I'm going to use my Dad's old Voigtlander again. Everything is mechanical circa late 50's early 60's. The slides he took were phenomenal as far as color and sharpness. Can you still get 35mm film?
Absolutely, 35mm is still made. Local camera stores, if you have any around, usually still have some. That's a good place to try a couple of rolls to figure out what you like. B&H Photo, Adorama, and Filmphotographystore.com are the ones I use. I like them all for different reasons.
The Canon FTb I picked up is basically one of the last fully mechanical cameras that Canon made. There's a little mercury battery for the meter, but I'm not bothering with that. I've got a halfway decent light meter app on my phone.
After I shoot a few rolls, I'm going to develop them myself. Picked up a little light panel so I can do my own digital "scans" with my DSLR.
Reminds me of my old '76 Camaro. My ex-wife nagged me into selling it. But like the car, the ex is long gone. The car gave me a lot less headaches. Wish I'd kept it.
There are 2 Harley engined custom bikes in there. Both by the same custom builder. The Norley is indeed a Norton Featherbed frame with a Buell engine, and the "HD" (mimic-ing the HRD Logo) is the same with a Sportster engine, but trying to look like an Egli Vincent. The bottom left pic is an actual Egli Vincent.
