Greetings all and welcome to our new thread. As usual, post all the images you want from your film camera. I'll start with a roll of HP5+ that I processed and scanned yesterday.

Some photos from an early May trip to western Colorado. How fortunate to live in a country with such varied and amazing scenery.

 

Taken with Praktica MTL 50, Pentacon Electric 50/1.8, Velvia 100. First photo was converted to B&W; I posted a sepia version in the 365 Day thread.

Great pictures. I have to agree, anyone can take great shots in Colorado. The most consistently crisp clear images I ever took on two rolls of E6 were there. I guess it has something to do with the air coming off the mountains.

Thanks. I've always loved the contrast between the desert and the mountains. A skylight filter really helps when shooting E6 film at these altitudes.

A great start to the week's pics! Love that "Gathering Clouds II", Dave. I've been trapped inside all week by rain, wind straight off the Antarctic ice and temperature readings stuck in the single digits. I've put the time to good use, cleaning and dusting old cameras and photographing some of the more interesting ones, so I thought I'd post a selection of the results; picture of old cameras instead of pictures from them. I hope you find something of interest.

 

Asahi Pentax S1 In my opinion one of the most beautiful SLR's, impeccably built and meticulously finished.

Interesting? Is that a joke? I'm practically drooling, here. :D You really should do a book of camera porn. I'd certainly buy it.

 

I didn't realize it got that cold in ALL of NZ. I've seen the snow-capped peaks, of course, but I thought the lowlands were fairly temperate.

I'm at the bottom of the North Island and snow on the plains is fairly rare, though the mountains behind me have a good coating. Further North, snowfall occurs only on the high ground in the centre of the island. The South Island currently has many road closures due to snowfall from this week's storm.

 

A book of camera porn? It's a great idea....

Hello

Here a couple from a few days ago, using the Fed2 with a black Jupiter 8 Kentmere 100 developed in HC110 dil. B

I batch scanned these on the Epson V800 using Epson sofware. There was only a little adjustment in PS.

Still lot of grain using the HC110 but with the problem I had with the Pyrocat HD I decided to use the HC110 to make sure these came out.

There is a light leak on some of the photos and not others so I think it is a flare from the camera.

Also the right side of the frame is darker than the left on some of the shots not sure what is going on there.

I used an older Pentax Spotmeter that I wanted to see if it was close I didn't have the correct Mercury batt so I used a spring with the 635

Anyways here are a few
