Rangefinder vs SLR - What's your preference and why?

Good to have both honesty, but I'd pick my rangefinder for easy focusing (using the patch), and grab the SLR for accurate framing, through the lens metering (if your camera has it) and DOF preview depending on mood.situations.

A mix of images from my Konica III and IIIa. (60+ year old cameras and lenses..)

The III and IIIa uses the same Hexanon 48mm F2 lens that I have found to be the absolute sharpest lenses of all 35mm film cameras I've used. Shot on Fuji color 200 and 400 iso negatives, scanned using Plustek 8300i film scanner.

They are both fun cameras to carry around with you.

Scanner Choice: Epson GT-X980 (V850 Pro) or PlusTek 8300i for 35mm film?

I currently have the PlusTek 8300i Ai film scanner with Silverfast workflow to handle my 35mm negatives. It's rather slow with each frame requiring individual adjustments and 6 film stripes of loading and unloading for 36 exp.

Would upgrading to an Epson V850 Pro increase my workflow speed?

Currently the only viable option to get V850 Pro is buy the Japanese domestic version GT-X980 at about half the cost ($950ish USD) of a retail V850 in the US

If V850 is faster then I would sell the 8300i and recoup some cost.

Thank you for your input.

I made blue runner sashimi..

So my neighbor loves to drop us her catches, consists of mostly grunt and blue runners. I tried using blue runner as sashimi and I love the firm texture. This time added soy sauce and sprinkled some sesame seeds on top and it's so good!

I also love eating blue runner steamed, meat is firm, minimal amount of bones, and no weird fishy smells.
