Leica M3 bracketing
Ok, this is it: just some bracketing to see how my new "used" cameras behave. This was my first time ever experimenting with actual manual controls. Yeah, I know it looks repetitive and some shots are crappy, but hey, to make a cake to need to break eggs :) The only one that I had used before was the Lubi, but I went out and test it against Mamiya C220.
Bracketing and testing is important. Especially with nice cameras, it lets you learn how they behave. I usually use cheaper BW film at first until I am comfortable that the speeds are where they are supposed to be. Then use one of my cheaper color films and go stop by stop through the speeds around the correct speed. Some films I think actually look better a little over or under.
