I keep forgetting to make an entry here. Sheesh! Must be that holiday time of year. I have been focussing so hard on trying to, no- willing, to make the $25 Minolta XD5 35mm eBay film camera work, that I have done so at the expense of everything else. But it has paid off. I finally figured out that it will work and I can get acceptable results developing the film so that I can take it with me on my trip south for Christmas. I guess I should have read all the manuals at the beginning, but then I am a visual, trial and error kind of guy.
