It sounds amazing, it looks elegant and sleek, but you said it is rather tiring for long writing sessions. I am a student and sometimes I need to write for like an hour or more. I’m wondering whether the pen is only good for short writing sessions and signatures.

This is very personal.

 

I used a 146 as my primary pen for many years. When I first used a 149, I found it tiring to write more than a half page or so. After a few days, I found the size very natural and now can write pages with it. I still really like the 146, but when I write with one(as I have been the past week) after having used the 149 for a while, it takes a bit of adjustment for me to be comfortable with it.

It works for me when I'm writing at my regular speed. However, for fast notes I much prefer my Pilot E95S fine or Kaweco Sport EF.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
