rick_drawbridge Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Lovely little camera, Erko, very much the Japanese equivalent of the Selfix 16-20 I posted some stuff on a little while ago. The Hesper lens seems to be a good performer in your capable hands; the "Dawn" and "Late Evening" images are particularly impressive. What did you dunk the Arista in? Thanks for a very decorative post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erko_podbicanin Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 What did you dunk the Arista in? Thank you Rick , I use D-76 , and I noticed kind of green residue afterwards . Interesting enough only one frame came with strange green tone . Here is picture , and it hasn't been manipulated whatsoever , except cropped .

rick_drawbridge Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 It looks like a software glitch...Are you scanning in grayscale? If I scan monochrome negs in RGB I have noticed similar aberrations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erko_podbicanin Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Actually the green residue that I mentioned is the developer itself (d-76). After developing it become somewhat green . Even the frame on the film has this greenish stuff on it . The rest of the film is fine , normal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glen_h Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 For some films, the sensitizing dye is hard to get out. T-Max have a pink dye that comes out slowly. If you fix long enough, it is mostly out, but sometimes you get pink negatives. Scan in gray scale, or set gray scale after scanning, using your favorite processing software. -- glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 All of my scanners (a phrase too-well earned) or, more properly, the software I use with them will occasionally go "off the rails". My latest and greatest, the Nikon CoolScan 9000, really does not want to stay in monochrome, even in the same batch, when used to scan chromogenic (C41) B&W. I just don't worry about it until I get to the post-processing. This saves me much frustration. Nice work with another of the amazing variety of folders.

Bill Bowes Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Hello everyone. As mentioned above, the Kodak Max films are "sometimes" a bit pink after fixing & washing. I get rid of this "pink" by using 0.1gram of Sodium Sulfite in the 1st wash (5min) of my Igloo system. Perhaps it would work on the green? Aloha, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronlandry Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 You say you use arista 100. which one would be acceptable to use in this camera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul ron Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 what a beautiful medium format pocket folder camera... I love mine! it takes 120 film. Arista and fomapan have a green antihalation coating on the back. I prewash my film for 2 min to remove it before going in the soup. The more you say, the less people listen.

chuck_foreman1 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 While you're getting tips on how to scan and why it might be green etc, if I understand correctly it was only one frame that still held this dye or had this "green" stain. Which of course begs the question why only one frame. Some of the references to antihalation dyes are on track, but then all of them would be affected. I assume you made the green scan on purpose to show the affect. You also said it was visible to the naked eye.... Darkroom mysteries indeed!! Looks like a lovely folder and I am pleased for you and impressed with the lovely performance and renditions with D76!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
