I liked the birds in flight in the third. It would have been a majestic shot of rugged natural beauty if not for the intrusion of architecture and the tanker on the horizon. Enjoyed them.

arthur_mcculloch2 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 My shots, again rehearsals. We have been beset by further east coast lows, which have created quite devastating floods to the north. My back yard is again like Lake Placid (minus the alligators). People I have known. The first, a bartendress: The second, someone I haven't seen for months now: I hope the rain stops here. Can get out then. Regards, Arthur. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for your words, although I am much worse photographer than all of you. I'm not very good at translating from Latin and even less so with Gothic script. I enclose my 1966 Summi DR 5 on my M-3 with the viewfinder mounted on the camera. Cordial greetings to all of you and thank you very much for admitting me to your masterful forum. luis Edited May 14, 2022 by luis triguez 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I may break down and buy a Fuji MF one of these days. Every day I find it more difficult to use the reflexes. They are very heavy. This is my last favorite for street photography: Fuji X with Voigtänder Heliar II 15 (23 mm equivalent) adapted with a Fuji ring for Leica M.

Sanford Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Luis, when you use a manual lens on the Fuji, do you open up the aperture to focus then close down to shoot? What exposure options are there. I've been looking at AA Artisans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luis triguez Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Hi Sanford! For candid and almost all street photos I do it like that:: As a general rule we must remember how to use "Zone Focusing". For my 15mm I focus at 5 ft. and f8. If the objective is something stationary and not looking at us, you can use the manual focus ISO AUTO CONTROL DEFAULT SENSITIVITY 200 MAX. SENSITIVITY 6400 MIN. SHUTTWER SPEED 1/200 depending on the focal length of the lens. We have to remember that each lens is 1.5 X. For example: for a 50 we will have to use no less than 1/75. For a 100 not less than 1/125. For more security and if I'm on the move I don't use less than 1/200 SHOOTING MENU COLOR 0 SHARPNESS 1 HIGHLIGHT TONE -2 SHADOW TONE -2 (on a heavy sun) NOISE REDUCTION -1 Edited May 16, 2022 by luis triguez 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luis triguez Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I wanted to say for a 100 not less than 1/200.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick_van_Nooij Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Looks good Rick, what developer did you use, I tried Rollei Super Grain and it blew some of the highlights Don I used Kodak HC-110, dilution E (1+47) for 10 minutes at 20C. Agitated for the first 30 seconds and then 1 inversion every 30 seconds. I did tweak the contrast of the scans a bit in PhotoShop. You have to be careful about stray light hitting the Summitar. It tends to give you a hot spot if you don't shield the lens. You can still see it a bit in the photo of the jeep on the front wheel . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
