Tony Evans Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) Started the week with the M50/2.8 on Pentax KX loaded with FP4. Then, motivated by Rick's beautiful use of the Tamron Adaptall 35-210, replaced the 50mm with the Tamron, which I have not used before. I originally got this as a cheaper substitute for the SP 90mm when I was planning some junior family portraiture which never eventuated. As reported this is a heavy beast, not recommended for casual photography. Consequently the Tamron shots were all per Tripod, Mirror Up, Self Timer. Film developed in Pyro HD. For the M 50/2.8. LINEAR PAIR. PATIO TABLE. For the Tamron. PEAKS. Me or U? NEXT OCTOBER. SQUARED CROSS. SEA DOG FARM.

chuck_foreman1 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Many done with the Biometar had a dark line on the long edge.. shutter lag or bounce? Some long lenses give that result in an Exa. I believe it comes from some shortcoming in the basic Exa shutter. That was my thought too the nature of how the shutter works.. which is still a bit of a mystery...

I suppose that's it.. as it mentions the longer sides.. I generally weas using f11 and it didn'T happen every time..but that'S a good point about longer lenses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochetrider Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Had a chance at April's AMCA (Antique Motorcycle Club of America) annual Spring National Meet at Oley PA, to shoot this awesome JAP powered speedway bike, as it was being shot rather "officially" by the AMCA photographer. I asked his permission to shoot over his shoulder and he was quite nice about letting do so. His hand and camera appear in one of the photos here, actually- oops, my bad. Shot with my Hasselblad 500cm, probably the 80mm Planar lens on Fuji Acros 100 film- the original not the Acros II. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
