Canon 1V

My Canon 1V came in the mail early yesterday and I wasn't even expecting it until late that night. YES. Love when that happens. It had been raining when it was delivered but by the time I discovered it was out on my front porch, the sun had come out! I was so thrilled. I immediately opened the box and put on my 50mm 1.4 (I bought it because it works with my EF lenses... and because it's a fabulous camera). I bought this camera used in "bargain" condition from KEH and there are definitely some scuff marks on the body but hopefully the camera itself is fine. It seems fine. I put in a roll of film yesterday I got for fairly cheap from CVS and finished up the roll in a couple hours, knowing I needed to see if it worked before my return time was up. CVS scanned my film and I was so excited to know that every one of my pictures turned out! HALLELUJAH. My only worry is that there there was dust and hairs on the scans but I think that was CVS's fault when developing. But anyway, although I haven't shot with professional film and I haven't gotten professional scans done, I think the camera is in working order!! I'm beyond excited to be able to incorporate film into my work! :)
