Film Camera Week for March 9


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. It is heart warming to see "my old 4x5" in Brad's hands. Along with the 4x5, two complete Pentax K1000 kit's went his way, to be handed on to several high schools he filters cameras too. Most of us here on CMC are collectors, big & small, of various 35mm & other format cameras. I hope some will also consider programs of getting these cameras into a younger generation of "photogs". I do not have the time & energy for using my cameras 24/7, so more will be heading Brad's way when I return to the mainland in several months. For now, the Fed's & a Zorki keep me happy at my various Farmers Markets & other local events. Aloha, Bill

 

Last year I bought my Son a FM2n from KEH for his birthday.

F2as, 105/2.5 Nikkor ais, yellow filter, 400TX. Mississippi State's presidential Library.[ATTACH=full]1236019[/ATTACH]

Wow. I wonder if they appreciate the irony of naming a library in Mississippi for Grant. It's not in Vicksburg, is it?

Three from my newly acquired 35mm f1.4 AIS Nikkor (on a circa 1976 Nikon F2) taken, developed, and scanned last Sunday. Tri-X in Rodinal (1:1).[ATTACH=full]1236229[/ATTACH]

Sorry - it should have read Rodinal (1:50)!

JDM- That GAF 500 image looks great. Back in the mid 70's when my family had a camera shop we never stocked any GAF 35mm or 120, although I tried to talk my dad into stocking the GAF 500. The minimum order was too high, though. We did stock the GAF Super 8 movie film and sold the GAF movie cameras. When Ektachrome 400 hit the market that satisfied my need for a fast slide film and I even had a roll pushed for exposure at E.I. 800 with decent results.

Mississippi State University is in Starkville. The Grant Presidential Library has a lot of original documents that serve as primary sources for historians. This adds to the reputation nationally of MSU.

A walk in the park.

Nikkormat FT2, 50mm AI f2, orange filter on Foma 200 exposed @100 and stand developed in Tmax developer 1-32 for 1 hour.

Awesome sharpness and detail!

K, thanks. If you're thinking I was knocking MSU, I wasn't. It's just that Grant is about as popular in Mississippi as Sherman is in Georgia, so it seems an odd location.

A very wet week past, with more rain to come, but I sneaked out early this morning and managed to capture a few banal images with the Mamiya 645 1000s and a Mamiya Sekor 55-105mm f/4.5 lens. The film was Bergger Pancro 400 developed in PMK Pyro, scans from an Epson V700 Photo.

As always, great photos, everyone.

In a couple of weeks I will have some new color photos as I sent two rolls of 35mm Fujicolor (one shot in Olympus XA) and a roll of 120 Reala (either in Fujica GS 645S or in Mamiya 645J.

The beginning of each week's new thread has been around 5:00 or so CST, but I may start it a few hours early this Thursday as my wife, youngest son, and I will be waiting for our granddaughter to be born later that morning.
