aleceiffel Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Didn't go far last week, so these are shot in or near my house. All shot with a Nikkor 55mm Micro the bushes on Plus-X, and the other two on Orwo Pan 125. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Evans Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 A few with the Pentacon 6 on Pancro 400. My first 120 developed in PMK as per Film Box recommendation for 24 deg F. Very disappointing. Prefer HP5. Scanned BSH/V700. Two with the CZJ Biometer 80/2.8. CONDO SUMMER. STAIRS AND SQUARES. Two with the CZJ Flektagon 50/4.0. ST. ANDREWS, SIDNEY.

My first 120 developed in PMK as per Film Box recommendation for 24 deg F. Very disappointing. Prefer HP5. Scanned BSH/V700. Excellent images for all that, Tony. I eventually gave up on the Pancro 400; while it has a very good tonal range it seems to have a slightly obtrusive grain and just lacks the sparkle of HP5 Plus. I recently picked up a Nikkor AF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6D lens at a local market for the princely sum of $15, which was about right since the AF was no longer functioning. Still, I'd been observing that this chunk of plastic has something of a cult following, and I thought I'd try it on a FE manual focus body. Despite being one of the most insubstantial little zoom lenses I've ever handled, it actually performs very well indeed, to the extent that I've ordered a working copy for the Nikon AF bodies. I'll post some samples, and I'd be interested to hear any other opinions of or experiences with this lens. The film was Ilford FP4 Plus developed in PMK Pyro,scanned on an Epson V700 Photo using Silverfast SE software.

Nikon has often made zooms that were light and seemingly cheaply made but the lenses were optically of very high quality. Your copy certainly has delivered high quality images. I remember many years back one of the photo magazines tested the Nikon kit lens 35-80 f 3.5-5.6 and found it to be a surprisingly good performer. An inexpensive performer that I like is the Sigma HF 28-80 f 3.5-5.6. I have one in Pentax AF and Maxxum and like the images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Gammill Posted November 11, 2018 Author Share Posted November 11, 2018 While I'll processing some film this afternoon here's a few from the archives. Tesla coil at McWane Center in Birmingham, AL. Olympus XA-2 propped on armrest, TMAX 400 waiting on train, Konica AUto S-2, likely High Speed Ektachrome about 1975 or so abandoned house from early 1090?s Minolta SRT 201 with Celtic 28mm f 2.8 Camp Seminole, Minolta XE-5 with Tamron Adaptall 28-200, Fuji Superia 400 waiting for light to change, Konica Auto S2, probably Kodacolor II, around 1976 or so 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted November 11, 2018 Author Share Posted November 11, 2018 A really old one scanned from a print. My two sons are in it. Now the youngest is 22 and the oldest is 26. I think the even was Wings Over Mississippi or something similar. At Bryan field in Starkville. Curtis and James at air show, probably TMAX 400 in Minolta X700. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpalmer57 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I've been playing with my Zeiss Maximar 207/7 and trying x-ray film (it's hard to get much 9x12 film here in the US and this stuff is really cheap!). I haven't completely settled on an ISO for it yet, nor on the best developer. Tried D-76, RO9, and a couple flavors of Caffenol. These are Caffenol C-H(rs) 12 min. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpalmer57 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 @jpalmer57 you wouldn't know it's cheap film from the photos. Really nice tonal qualities. Thanks, I've just started playing with it. In some ways it's a pain. Most x-ray films have emulsion on both sides so it's very easy scratch at least one side. It doesn't come in most normal sizes so I cut it down from 5x12 inches. And the back side emulsion give's a little "glowy" look and can make it look less sharp. But so far it's been fun. And that's the point, isn't it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
