I do like these. I quite like the Kentmere 400, grain and all! I have a few rolls of the 100 here to try out and will be devving them in D76.

Cheers, I like the 100 and its good value not tried it in D76 yet but I suspect I'll use it for some of the treasure hunt. Got some tri-x to compare it to later this week for all I ever shoot faster film I might just stick with the slightly dearer stuff.

I'd have this mounted Steveo......Superb shot imo......everything about it is right up my street!

Thanks Asha :), I'm thinking of joining the local public darkroom it might be a good candidate for a wet print.

A quick one from me:

c41022.jpg


Ummm... its not agfa vista, but its of that ilk from poundland, dev'd at home by myself. Given it was the first c41 deving, I'm pretty pleased with how the colours have come out.
I know its soft, but thats down to using iso200 film indoors without a flash I think, was shooting wide open with a 1.8 and was barely getting handholdable speeds.
 
@ Mads: The colours have come out very well.

Sharpness isn't the be all and end all......sharp is good but a treasured moment caught on film that brings back joyful memories can mean much more even if soft, blurry or oof.

Here's another one from me taken back at the end of January this year:

The actual cafe is closed for the winter...shame as it is quite sheltered and warm in the sun, located in the grounds of a local museum.

Asha, you're quite right. As it stands, given the conditions it was shot in, I'm really quite happy with the fact its not even softer/blurry :lol:

That shot of yours of the pier/jetty, are those two people doing the run of panic, normally accompanied by "crap, save the camera"?

Yep it was obvious to me that the sea was going to swell over hence I remained further back,obviously they thought different! :D

They were wating to see if the sunset was going to be worth a shot....it was a very cloudy, dank evening but the sun had chance of lighting the underside of the clouds as it hit the horizon but as it was it came to nothing special.

My shot wasn't particularly good, but I reckon I had more fun in what i captured than what they did ....

Cut this shot of yours down and lose the boat? at the bottom and it could be a nice panoramic scene!
 
Mads, might want to give it a tilt to the left a little as well, the houses look as though they are about to scoot off the table.

I'm still laughing at those guys trying to save their cameras from the sea, I'm sure we've all been in a similar situation but its still funny when its not me! :D
 
Two very nice train shots there steveo.....personally prefer the wider one......the run of arches brings back memories when i used to spend time in the Yorkshire Dales around Ribbleead viaduct.

Aye, I gave it some thought but, since it was more a test roll to see if I liked Kentmere, I wasn't too fussed... also, the reason its wonky is that I'd placed the camera on a rock, as it was a bit darker than I was able to handhold, and I didn't have my tripod.

I think I prefer that one also, the train the second is better though. The Ribblehead viaduct looks a little more grand than the Slatefort one!

Don't tell me, you cheaped out and didn't get a decent rock with a built in level! :lol:
 
This is an excellent series of well spotted images. Love 'Bleed Bones' and 'Big Mouth' particularly.

Thank you :)

'Bleed Bones' is from a tunnel in town that has been taken over by artists. I go there once a week to see if there is anything new. I have a few more from there from the same roll that I have scanned that I'm going to post onto my Flickr later.

Thanks again :D
 
Been reading this forum for a while but not really posting, thought I may as well share some of my recent(ish) film photos.

Thanks for looking, any comments are appreciated!
 
Graham, you can't hide that Hasselblad under a bushel, mate. Three cracking portraits, well done indeed. Let's see some more, please!
 
Nice portraits Graham, I'm not sure if this is just be but the camera feels a little low so the people are looking down too much. But thats just my feeling you are of course free to ignore me. :)

Probably just a symptom of shooting with a WLF. Some of the portraits I take have this problem as well - a 45 degree prism helps but makes the camera a bit less ergonomic.
 
Whats the best way to deal with this? I'm likely to have this problem soon as I want to try some portraits with the RB67 likely with a 90mm at the moment. I've got a prism but the whole assembly is way too heavy to lift up to eye level for framing, not for any length of time any way.
 
I've only got a light weight cheapy, fully extended it'll take the weigh the qr bracket isn't happy but it holds. I doubt the extending centre column would support the extreme mass at eye level! Better tripod is next on the list though.

As freecom says, it's mainly because of using the WLF. When it's on the tripod I can't see down it above a certain height.

Yea it's a drawbackk of the WLF - where possible I try and get above people / ask them to take a seat and then shoot with me standing

Tripod head in "portrait" position...ie the camera is then on it's side, can be raised higher and subject can still be seen in the viewer ( albiet not in a vertical position).....works though!
 
Use Live View.

Oh wait...
