Film Camera Week for February 16


Recommended Posts

Welcome, all to our weekly thread. As usual, post all the images you want from your film camera. I'll start with a few from my Olympus IS-30 that has not been used in nearly three years.

lingering snow, Tri-X

 

On the IS-30 full aiuto (program) mode can be switched to aperture priority (although shutter speed is not shown)

Remus, lens set to f 11, built-in flash, Tri-X

 

The little 28-110 f4.5-5.6 zoom performs well for a zoom (although I've heard the zooms in the IS-2 and IS-3 are even better)

The Tri-X was my last roll loaded from bulk. The price was so good on Ilford HP5+ that I got a bulk roll of it. It does seem slightly grainier than Tri-X as processed in HC110 and examined with a magnifier. But I do like the tones. FWIW, I used dilution B for Tri-X and dilution H for the HP5+/

Later in the weekend I''ll post some from from classic gear: SRT101 and Olympus RC 35.

Surprising... my experience is different, but I check scans instead of magnified look at the negative, so that introduces a variable probably. But HP5/HC110 dil. H (ISO400, 12 min. @ 20°C) has become my standard, since the grain is subtle and smooth, and the tonality is very much to my liking. With HC110, grain with Tri-X was far from bad, but I never got the tonality right somehow, the midtones milky and murky somehow.

Then again, I'm no expert, so it could also just be luck with HP5 and bad luck with Tri-X.

A few from a length of Ilford FP4 Plus, the first through a fresh batch of PMK Pyro. The developer seems to be consistent with the last rolls through the previous mix; it's amazing how well the concentrates keep, right down to the last drops. The camera was a Yashica FR1, fitted with a 42-75mm Yashica ML f/3.4-4.5 lens. Scans from an Epson V700 Photo, using Silverfast SE software.

Hello All

Here are a few from the Canon P with new to me 50mm 1.8 Canon lens

Film Ferrania in Pyrocat HD

I have more to scan that I shot at 40iso that are not looking good, I think I was having issues with my meter.

 

Anyway, I have adjusted the gamma on my screen using this site http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1A.html

Can any of you tell me if these appear too dark or ok or?

I have adjusted to my screen.

Thanks in advance sorry for posting so many

Don

Here are a few shots from a Rolleiflex Automat K4A with the 75mm Tessar f/3.5 lens. It's not a camera I use very often as I prefer the versatility and ergonomics of the SLR medium format cameras, but the Tessar lens is a gem. Film was Bergger Pancro 400 developed in PMK Pyro.

I was drawn out for a slight respite of the usual dreary rainy weather we have here in NRW. There was a light fog caused by the sun warming the wet ground suddenly; though it was definitely noonish ... not a good time according to the books. Also I think I bumped the focus and didn't check it. I was carrying this camera in my coat pocket and had another loaded with color print film. Both of these cameras used selenium cell metering. This one: a Contessa S310 used aperture priority trap needle and the other a Contaflex Super had coupled metering. I want to shoot another roll under dedicated better conditions... not too happy with these results, but the S310 is a nifty little shooter and I like the slightly wide 42mm lens. This was Kentmere 100 in D76 1:1

This is the local Hospital; Domenikus Krankenhaus. We walked home here along the Rhine with both our babies.
