Yashica Electro 35 GX with Portra 800

YashicaGX-3569

Lets see…good film (check) great camera (check) interesting place (check)  it all adds up to a great time taking pictures.  I helped chaperone a group of highschool photography students downtown Vancouver and true to form I had a couple different cameras with me.  One of them was the Yashica Electro GX only recently knocked from its pedestal of favourite rangefinder in my collection by the equally good Olympus SP35

I really like the look I get from Portra 800 as well and am amazed at how fine the grain is considering the speed of the film.  Here is a crop from one of the images.
