WOW! what a bargain!!!!! i can't wait to see what happens--i love shooting with expired film, as you know.
your zenit photos really are incredible. they are so emotional and evocative--i can't get over them.

well, it's all your fault, you know? :) i won't be switching back to digital again, it's impossible! i'm also excited about the new film, the fact is that there's still a lot of it left for $0,36 a roll, so if it turns out to be good, i'll need a lot of money and cool storing places! :-\
btw, i didn't mention that i've been shooting film without light meter, 'by eye', and still there are no blown-out highlights, imagine? fuck DSLR's...

:) :) :)
i have a nice light meter that my friend [livejournal.com profile] vetal_vetal gave me, but i usually forget it and shoot by eye, too :) the zenit sure has a lovely soft light and focus, and unbelieve aperture/bokeh effects!
as for cool places--in the winter, can't you leave it hanging out the window? ;) our refridgerator freezer is so full between my film and our frozen chiles to last all year that we don't really have room for anything else! :)
