Peking Duck

I’ve finally upgraded to a better scanner (nothing extreme, but our new Epson 4490 does medium format scans with a nice, dedicated film holder) and I’m very happy with the scan speed and the results.

Here is a shot I took with my Kodak Medalist on Ilford Delta Professional 100. This was back in February in Chinatown during an exceptionally cold rain shower. But this picture was worth my sniffeling nose for the following couple of days…

    Hi,
    I have been using a Medalist off and on for a few years, love it. Do you have any idea what kind of flash cable it uses? I know it is x synced but have no idea what cable I need?!? I’ve never seen a socket like it on any other camera.

    I’ve never used a flash on the Medalist. Mine is actually a Medalist #1 and it doesn’t have any connector for a flash cable at all. Maybe check on a forum like the Nelsonfoto Forums, I’m sure somebody can help with that.

    If you ever get a Medalist 2 or various other Kodak cameras with the funky socket, it is called an ASA connector. You can easily find PC adapter cables due to the popularity of Kodak stereo cameras who have this connector.

    Nice shot BTW, that is sort of my hood, as I live at Pine & Stockton.

    Heh – we are on Pine & Hide. Small world. :-)

    We should probably meet for a Medalist photo outing on of these days…
