Sarah - Thanks for the comments! @jen I shot with the Contax 645 with the new Kodak Portra 220 and it was mostly fine except I have to rely the autofocus on the Contax which can sometimes feel like you’re wrestling an aligator. It’s a little difficult but the Blairs were so wonderful and patient so it went well. Thanks again!
