Film Camera Week for May 15


Recommended Posts

Greetings all and welcome to our new thread. Post all the images you like from any film camera. I recently ran film through my Canon EOS Rebel K, a camera which I haven't used in a while. It was a Christmas gift over ten years ago. I gradually added more lenses including a new 50mm f 1.8 for only 20 USD. Film was Ilford HP5+ processed in Kodak HC110 dilution H and scanned with Epson V600.

I've begun documenting some Pennsylvania coal mining towns, I've posted a pic or two from previous rolls of MF film, but here are some newer ones.

If you look at the below shot, you will notice an "onion dome" church. Because PA has a rich history of all manner of Immigrants over the centuries, there are pockets of orthodox religious sects in various places across the state. This church could be Greek or one of any number of Eastern European countries' Orthodox church.

 

In spite of the fact that mining is still operational to this day, most of these towns have seen better days. The bigger towns are largely shut down and there are empty houses etc in the surrounding villages. The churches, pizza shops & bars are the primary operational businesses these days. The photos I posted last week of the Alpine GT car are also part of this set. These are shots from Frackville PA and 2 tiny villages nearby.

Some from a Bronica ETRs with either the 150mm Zenza Bronica MC f/3.5 or 40mm Zenza Bronica MC f/4 lenses. The film was Kodak T-Max 400 developed in Pyrocat HD.

Great start to our thread, everyone. Especially interested in the images posted from Hasselblad gear since I'm planning to get started with this system. Opened a thread a few weeks back and got some really good advice.

 

Here's a couple shots from my 500cm for you. We have quite a lot of covered bridges around Central Pennsylvania. The next c county to my north 7 west, just to name one example, has a total of 14. This bridge is in the next county north of that- Juniata County near Port Royal. A rounded arch like these is called a Burr Arch. This bridge is unique in that it features double Burr Arches! I've spent a lot of time. photographing most of my local covered bridges, but this is the fist I've shot on film. This was the 80mm Planar CF *T lens, and I'm pretty sure it was shot on Ilford HP5.

 

Here's some reading for you on covered bridge construction

A few more recent photos to keep things going. These are from the Rollei 35S and Ilford FP4+.

not a big fan of photos through windshield, but here's one- waiting on food at Starkville's Buffalo Wild Wings

upload_2020-5-19_10-12-47.jpeg.4bf93858f0c48e5bfc9c7d553efddb96.jpeg

another waiting area (this one outside The Grill). At least I rolled down the window for this photo.

Those little Rollie's are really great for quick shots (just preset exposure for conditions if you don't have much time for meter readings.

Currently have two working Rollei's- a 35S and B35. My old Rollei 35 (Xenar f 3.5) is stuck at 1/500 second. I have a 35 LED that the shutter is stuck partially open.

One more.

plenty of shoppers

I'll have more to start our new thread in a couple of days. If you don't have recent photos please feel free to post older images even if you've posted them before.

Will do. :)

 

Taken with Praktica MTL3, Helios 44-2, Kodak Gold 100. I no longer have this particular lens (or camera), but even the older Helios lenses perform very well. This was taken at f/4, I think, so the "swirly" effect is not as pronounced as it is wide open.

One tip about Hasselblad is that accidentally tripping the shutter while changing lenses can lock the camera. I did this several times and had to send it in for repairs. I finally learned a home remedy that sometimes works. The way to avoid the problem is to have a film back on the camera with a dark slide in place since the dark slide in place because the dark slide blocks the shutter making changing the lens safe.
