Mike Gammill Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>As it is Friday, Feb. 5 in some time zones let's begin our weekend thread. Lately I've been using my Pentax MX a lot so I've got some images from it. The film was Eastman 5222 processed in Kodak HC110 dilution B.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>Sometimes we (myself included) might mount a classic lens on a camera that might be more at home in the modern film camera forum. For example, using a late 70's Canon FD lens on a mid 80's Canon T70. I've done the reverse for the next two photos: I decided to try my new Pentax 50mm f2.8 macro (which lives on my ZX-5 and K50) on the MX. After all, the lens does have an aperture ring and a fairly wide focusing ring. While the feel isn't quite like what I get with my Pentax M and A lenses, it wasn't bad.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>Last one. Although it doesn't have the same feel as my Pentax M lenses, the f 2.8 aperture does make focusing relatively easy.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Bowes Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>Hello everyone. Everyone can, and should, love a calico cat, and a 50's Ford, ahh, pure lust!<br /> Over here in Hawaii I ventured around the next town over from Waimanalo, Kailua, after a doctors appointment with the Vito and captured these three scenes. The Morning Brew is a shop well frequented by me, both am & pm, since they stay open til about 3 am with live entertainment Monday thru Saturday. Excellent sandwiches, folk & jazz and occasionally open mike comedy.<br /> If you ever come thru Kailua you might notice hordes of people (mostly tourists) cruzing about on fat tire bicycles, complete with front baskets and ringe-dinge's on the handlebars. These are rented by 5 or 6 shops like that in #2.<br /> #3. Just thought the signs were a bit Pythonesqe ! Aloha, Bill</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Bowes Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>Retail office space is weird. . . liquor store downstairs, multi doctors offices upstairs. All shots with Vito II & G filter, UFX400 @ 400asa and Obsidian Aqua developer. V-600 scans.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 <p>Those are plenty sharp, <strong>Bill</strong>... Here are three from a test film through a very nice little Konica SII Rangefinder with the wonderful Hexanon 48mm f/2 lens. I've just finished tidying it up, but more of that soon. Film was Ilford FP4 processed in PMK Pyro, scans from the Epson V700.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWScott Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 <p>I ran a roll of store-brand C41 colour through the Pentax K2 to test out the new-to-me SMC Pentax-M 50mm f/1.4.<br> Unfortunately, the local drugstore lab seems to be having some QC issues. If given lemons, make lemonade. So these got converted to black and white.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWScott Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 <p>I think I'm happy with the lens. Need to have another go with better film and my usual lab.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donald_miller5 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 <p>A bit wordy here. Someone gave me their kit of a Minolta Maxum 300i that I wasted my time with. I can not believe that Minolta put their name on it. So again I go to the archives.<br> My father insisted on having a Kodak Royal 16 mm film camera but never bought a projector so our excitenet was for the family to crowd around film splicer/editor (I still have it). I found several rolls and scanned a few frames. This is me playing at 4 playing in the dirt.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
