My first try with Minolta 7s

Okay, after the last round of testing, i went for another round of shooting at the botanic garden to test out my Minolta 7s. It's a heavy afternoon for this shoot, since my dry cabinet traumatized me the whole afternoon.

In comparison to Yashica, this camera gives me a much more flexibility in manual control mode. I could play with the Depth of field as much as i can open the aperture to the max.

It took me roughly 10 shots before i realised the patch focusing on range finder..Nonetheless, i think it's a success on this roll of Kodak Gold 200.





trying to focus center then frame it...n i did it!


I really love this pic alot...i intend to bokeh the background with the girls having picnic..and its lovely..






In search of flowers...


I tried doing center focus..and i did it again...(meaning, i focus the branches and leaves at the center..and the front and background turned out blur with the center in focus only)




My favorite last 2 shot!


I zone focus this shot..meaning i gauge the distance and snap..wonderful isn't it?


I think I am talented..haha and i notice botanic garden doesn't have much flowers.
Ending off the last picture of the roll....

Me!!! The handsome me...OPs...i mean talented me!lol
