Photo of the day 11-19-09 Canon Ft


Shot in the summer of 1969 in Sicily with the Canon Ft, the Canon 50mm f1.4 FL on good old Kodachrome II. Yes it had an ASA [ISO] of 25. That was sufficient then to take photos in day time. Now we expect cameras to take shots at ridiculously high ISO settings. How times change.
