Bill Bowes Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Some time was spent this week mixing up a "new" version of Pyrocat HD, labeled Pyrocat HDC by most. Several rolls of junked/ruined 120 looked good, so will put my Ultrafine 100 & 400 thru the cameras. 100asa in the Isolette, 400asa in the Fed. Results later.

Mike Gammill Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Got the urge to shoot some 120 film (got some expired APX 100 I need to use) so the camera of choice is my Fujica GS645S. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Also have a roll of HP5+ in my Minolta SRT 102 with 135mm f 3.5 Rokkor-X MD. Before tele zoom performance improved and prices dropped, the 135mm telephoto was a popular entry into telephoto photography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadeschields Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Just sold both of my Mamiya RZ67 bodies , backs and a few of my lenses. The backs still had film in them so I shot some city scapes and a waterfall in the country before shipping them off to their new owners. Looking forward to seeing the last photos I will ever take :(with the cameras that I used for nearly every job I ever shot back in the film days..... Everything being digital now, I just wont use them anymore so its time for it all to go.... When I shoot film for fun I will go for the grain that 35mm provides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick_van_Nooij Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Didn't go out as it rained most of the weekend. Spent my time scanning 300+ negatives from a decade ago. And militarizing this Graflex carrying case into a PH-83-D case 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_shumpert2 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I recently have had some luck finding classic manual cameras. These are 2 of my recent finds. I loaded them with some Arista EDU 400 in the Zeiss, and Ilford Delta 400 in the Minolta. The photos were taken with my digital camera, which I took along to meter the shots. The Zeiss meter is way off and the Minolta is accurate some of the time. I will be developing the film this weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 All being well, I'll exercise a camera I really don't use often enough, the Rollieflex Automat 6x6. I believe it to be a Model K4A. While it's pretty much a work of art, it also takes marvelous photographs. Rolleiflex Automat 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 My Vito II has been on the shelf a bit, so will partner it with a "new" Blik (FSU) rangefinder on the Isolett II & wonder about Honolulu during the weekend. Aloha, Bill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjferron Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Very nice. I spotted it in the dealer case late last week and said wow. Thought about it for 2 days and said "I'm going back and if it is still there it's mine LOL. I did pay $549 for the camera and lens. Dealer would not budge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_drawbridge Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Just arrived this morning, a pristine Olympus XA. I had a rather battered copy but sold it a couple of years ago, and I've been looking for a replacement, on and off, ever since. I hope to put a film through it tomorrow.
