long  time  i do not develop  any  thing

 

do you  activated your  film  also 

 

beautifull result

 

for  the moment my project is  to fit a web cam  to my  35mm  lens  

some are  wide 24 mm or  some  are zoom 250 

but  I got a bad  zoom  effect  whit  the  9 mm  ccd

 

try to  fix  that  and  able  to show  some r esults here  later

Very nice. I always enjoy seeing film astrophotography because the photos are not over processed like modern images.
