Went to the beach this last weekend and shot some Cinestill 50D. Got to see some surfers pulled out of the bay while we were there.

If it looks like the helicopter is really close to the cliff, that's because it is

These 2 I'll post together as they're both vertical and will probably get brutalized by thumbnail cropping no matter what I do.

People say the Nikon F4 has poor auto-focus but I've honestly never had much problem with it when using prime lenses in good light ... except for this day. Most of the helicopter shots were just about at the infinity mark on the 300mm lens and combined with the general haziness of the day the F4 had a really difficult time deciding what do with the focus. I might try the N70 next time.

This shoot also made me wish I had a 1.4x teleconverter

Is it really Cinestill if you don't get a little halation?

The post card shot. I'm not sure if this is also halation, but I really like how the lighthouse has a sort of glow to it

I don't shoot film at the beach often and I'm always surprised how much light there is to work with, even as the sun starts going down.
