Bill Bowes Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Hello everyone. Pink, and all you other "square format" users, Why compose for a "rectangle"??? Square prints, when presented in square frames, sell good for me... also get a lot of compliments ! Aloha, Bill 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinklather Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Erko, I enjoy the macro of mechanical stuff. What are you using to focus close? Macro lens? Ext. tubes? Bellows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks great. I just do not have a camera in that format which is why I do not shoot square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossb Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Headed to Yosemite tomorrow. I was there on the 8th to hike Half Dome and did not take photos as I did not carry a camera. . I had planned to go back the next day and shoot but due to some blisters on my feet from the 19 mile hike I just went home. However tomorrow my wife and I are going back to Yosemite and on Tuesday maybe Hetch Hetchy or Tuolumne meadows will be the plan. . Hope to have some nice landscapes to share in next weeks thread. I also hope my wife will let me take a couple photos of her. I do not post family photos on photo net but they are my real interest in photography.

Don Harpold Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Well here are a few from the Rolleiflex I just got back from Harry Fleenor with a new Maxwell bright screen, big difference. These are from a walk down a creek trail in Almaden Valley in San Jose, CA I use Delta 100 HC110 Dil. B. I had a double exposure on the first frame, I released the shutter and it did not crank so I hope it was just a fluke, as no further problems, except with the shooter himself. It was kinda like I was a total newbie I forgot to focus on one and I forgot to take the lens cap off on the last 3 shots on the Minolta Himatic 7s that I was shooting with the Delta 400 that will get developed later this week. Again some good some eh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Bowes Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hello again. I have square format cameras (Yashica Mat's, Isolettes) & I have "rectangular" cameras. . . I just go with the flow. I do not think the people at Hasselblad even gave "rectangular" a though ! Aloha, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinklather Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Don, you're gonna love that Maxwell screen. *UBER* fragile. If a blower brush won't get a bit off - proceed w/ extreme caution. The local factory 'blad service said I could expect 2 more stops of light from my pre-acutematte screen. It seems to deliver. The Rollei screen was a bit more reasonable. 'Blad w/ split/grid/microprism was just south of $400. It would appear your Rollei likes it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one for my Hasselblad 500cm many years ago I think I only paid around 200.00 for it, Here is a photo from many years ago from the Reagan Library.
