And your eye is at least the quality of mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James G. Dainis Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 That Pyro HD seems to be a truly superlative developer. James G. Dainis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 When my mother had to move to a managed care facility, I had to move my father's paintings to my home. They are now in the "room whose name shall not be mentioned". This picture does not show all of them at all. Nikkormat EL, Kodacolor 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off a few shot with Leicaflex SL-2/50 f2 Summicron/HP5 You've seen this car before, but it keeps changing.

Fiddlefye Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I finally got the service done on my Pentax LX and ran a roll through. Lovely camera and lenses. 50 f1.2 @ 1.2 D100 LX 037 by fiddlefye, on Flickr The f1.2 is almost like getting two lenses in one. You get this amazing wild bokeh and low light ability and an incredibly sharp 50 in the average working apertures. D100 LX 019 by fiddlefye, on Flickr The M 135 f3.5 is tiny and really nice.

rick_drawbridge Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Here are some from roll of Ilford Delta 400. I've never been very enthusiastic about this film with it's mushy grain structure, but I was given a couple of sample rolls and trialed one in Pyrocat HD, a combination of film and developed I've not used before. I'm quite impressed by the tonal quality and the "clean" look of the images, and the way the film handled some fairly extreme lighting situations. The camera was a Miniolta X-700 with a Minolta MD 35-70mm f/3.5 lens. 80 Phil and Rhonda's Bleachers Entrance 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I do I'll try to recall your experience in terms of developer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 When I did my snowbird jump to Hawaii for 2015-2016, I only had one roll of Delta 400 (120) left from the fire several months earlier. A "rush" restocking of UFX 400 and a mix of "new" Obsidian Aqua (OA) vrs my previous 510-Pyro developer were used for a week long visit with my brother in Hilo, on the Big Island of Hawaii. These two pictures were from the wanderings of that visit. Exposed several days apart, both rolls were developed together in a 900ml Nikor tank using 8 ml of OA in the liquid. Only when the magnification starts to pass that of 11x11 does one really see the difference in the emulsions with the catechol / pyro staining developer. The Delta wins hands down. The shadow and high lite areas are held very nicely by either emulsion in the OA. Since 2015 I have used either Delta or Tmax films for those "serious" projects, The UFX materials are available in both 35mm & 120, so that is now part of a new "eternal" stash. Stay safe & Aloha, Bill 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_drawbridge Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Since it's a long weekend, here are a few from my own personal classic, the Canon EOS 100 (Elan), the only film camera in my possession that I've owned from new. I bought it in 1993 to use over the long Easter weekend, and since then a sort of ritual has been established, in that I run a film through the old camera each year in Easter week. In all these years it's never faltered, and it would rank as one of the best-designed, most sensibly-featured and most ergonomically perfect cameras I've used. These are landscape images taken during a walk from my place on Good Friday afternoon; the lens was the efficient Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM and the film was Ilford HP5 Plus developed in Pyrocat HD.

Don Harpold Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 A few from the new to me Olympus XA with Kodak 5222 XX in D96. I missed on the focus and settings on a few but like the developer so far, first time using, got a bottle for the Ferrania. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
