Mamiyaflex + Agfachrome RSX II 100 + Heritage Park (again)


Recommended Posts

Andre -- Beautiful work!

 

Last Saturday I was up near Heritage Park (I only passed the park). I wanted to take a look at the Weasel Head Flats. It was actually my first visit to the flats. I think it is a shame that a piece of the to-be ring road is to fall through this wonderful natural area. Oh well, the price of progress in a growing city. At least I managed to get a few shots of the setting sun on my Canonet QL17.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone!

 

I am pretty happy with the film - just wanted to try slides, and this was slightly expired and on sale - works for me! I think I got about 5 rolls - $2.99 ea. CAD.

 

There was no filter at all on the lens - all using the 80mm 'chrome' naked. - I consider myself 'lazy' not 'crazy' to use the sunny 16 rule. (maybe I AM crazy to do this) I can't be bothered to constantly fiddle with the light meter and the camera. I will admit that the Shell Gas shot was metered. In my mind the sunny 16 rule is the ultimate 'incident' light meter - same reading regardless of the subject. ;)

 

My brain works like this - Sunny 16 on ISO 100 = 1/125 @ f16....BUT I want to handhold so I better use a faster shutter to make sure I get sharp shots = 1/250 @ f11....BUT you never know what slight shadows there might be, maybe I should put on a little insurance (1 stop) = 1/250 @ f8. I believe this is where I 'stuck' the shutter and aperature that day.
