m42dave Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Here are three from the Pentax ES II, SMC Takumar 55/1.8, Fujicolor 100. After fixing a broken meter switch, sticking mirror, and replacing the seals, the ES II seems to be working just fine. Auto exposure is accurate and the Takumar 55/1.8 is a fine performer, as expected. Fork in the Trail 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_drawbridge Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I've just returned from a week visiting our outer islands, so I have a few marine-flavoured images for, a change. Traveling light, I took a Nikon FE fitted with a Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/3.3-4.5 lens, not the most reputable of zooms but good enough for my holiday snapshots. The film was Ilford FP4 Plus developed in PMK Pyro. I have a roll of Bergger Pancro 400 to finish in a Mamiya 645 1000S, so hopefully I will post a few more images, later in the weekend.

Wouter Willemse Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 couple of firsts for me - first roll with a new-to-me Yashica D, and actually my first roll of 120 film ever too. Yes, I'm late to the party, I guess :) Film is HP5, in HC110 dil. H. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Nice work, Wouter! There's something addictive about square pictures... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wouter Willemse Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Thanks - compositing square is probably the hardest thing for me, since I'm very used to 3:2.... but it's nice, and a good exercise to "watch differently". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Another "Square Head" ! 99% of my "square" work is done without the intention of cropping into a "rectangle" print. Thankfully, enough people see the beauty of the format. You will find that with a finer grain film & appropriate developing, even landscapes can be "squared".

Bill Bowes Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) If you do get a bug to use the 6x6 format with landscapes, look into Rollei Retro 80s film. It has a blue sensitivity that is almost like shooting outdoors with a K-2 filter. I find 3.0ml of Rodinal in my 450ml tanks with Semi Stand developing is great Use a modified SS time sequence of 30sec of constant agitation to start with and (2) ez "flips" @ 2, 5, 10, 20, 40 min's with the dump at 60min. Care is needed with the fixer, time being NO MORE than 2x clearing. Bill Edited December 1, 2017 by Bill Bowes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I finished the Bergger Pancro 400 film in the Mamiya 645 1000s, fitted with the 55-110 Mamiya Sekor f/4.5 lens. Since we have great skies in this early summer weather I tried out a polar filter, having not used one with the Pancro 400 before, and was pleased by the results. Here are 4 samples; the film was developed in PMK Pyro and scanned on an Epson V700 Photo using Silverfast SE software. Cottage Save Me From the Suburbs...

Well I've come full circle... I used to love square format and now I prefer 3:2- It is a mind set but basically my taste is wide angle so this fits better ..I think ..in an over square format. Another thing may be, I am uncomfortable with the 6x6 Rolleiflex type viewing now. I don't trust my eyes and the loupe viewing I can't do unless it's right next to my eye...

Hi Rick, You say you used a polarizing filer.. this is not a yellow filer but a polarizer ie gray filter... very impressive . You just blow me away with your images!! Great!!

Bill Bowes Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Chuck, find out what diopter reading glasses give you a sharp screen when focusing with the Rollei (or any other TLR). Purchase them with one of the "string things" that allow the readers to be popped on & off one's nose bridge but prevent "dropping" the glasses. I feel for any one with tired eyes, or horrors that be, "old, tired eyes" (did I just do a "selfie"???) , so use this set up for all my cameras, 35 & 120.
