Film Camera Week for August 24


Recommended Posts

Greetings all and welcome to our new thread. As usual post all the images you like from your film camera. Recent or from your archives. I didn't get any film processed since last weeks thread so I'm pulling a few from my archives to get started. I hope to have some new photos in a few days.

No photos right now, though I hope to finish up two rolls this week.

 

As part of last week's "Wacky Wednesday" thrift store finds, I also picked up this Super-Takumar 135/3.5 for just $1.

The results from this film are a bit baffling to me. The shadow values almost vanish in the neg & the grain is a bit more than I am use to with the Kentmere / Ultrafine films. Once the post processing values are set it does give a "certain" feeling to the print unlike 40+ years of b/w work. Perhaps I will order another roll or two & continue the dabbling. Here is a side-by-side comparison of 1k x 1k crops. Aloha from the Mainland, Bill572999606_2k17-011-004ces5-horz.jpg.0ef1253a8f5aee1b7077d5e15ea567f6.jpg

Here are a few frames from a Nikon FE fitted with a Tokina 28-70mm ATX f/2.8 lens I was offered. It's a nice sharp lens once you get down to about f/4.5, but very big and heavy and I think I'll pass on it. The film was Ilford FP4 Plus developed in PMK Pyro. It's a gloomy forecast, but if the weather improves I may have something else to post by the end of the weekend.

Great start to our thread. And welcome to our weekly thread, kmac. I hope to see more of your work.

Moving on- We still have a fair number of gravel roads where I live. Growing up we delighted in making "hand brake turns" in a 1969 VW Beetle that belonged to a friend and my mother's 1973 Vega. The Vega was especially fun as it had a light rear end and was faster than the VW. My first car was a 1969 Mustang which had a floor mounted emergency brake so no hand brake turns in it. But at least it was fast.

No classic camera results this week, but here are a couple I took using a classic lens, the Tamron 28-70 f/3.5-4.5 Adaptall-2. It's currently residing on my Canon 6D, which is what I used to take these.

 

Just an office building, but I love the graphic effect. Unfortunately, the light was flat, today, after being excellent yesterday, when I didn't have my camera with me. (I know, I know)

Crepuscular Rays - I so rarely get to use that word. Exposed for the sky, obviously. The house is for lease, if anyone is thinking of moving here.
