Film Camera Week for July 7

[Mike Gammill]

Greetings, all, and welcome to our new thread.  Post all the images you like from any film camera.  I'll start with some shots from a roll of HP5+ that I processed and scanned earlier in the week.  Camera was Minolta SRT, lens noted in caption.

I was testing a somewhat used Rolleiflex 3.5F on behalf of a friend last week. It was a bit rough and well used, but things checked out fine.

I got some 120 Kodak Gold 200 for the project, and most shots were boring focus confirmations etc. Below are a few of the less boring results:

Some different procedure and work flow from me. First I took an inexpensive DX 18-55mm lens and attached it to my Nikon N80. I processed the Delta 100 in Rodinal 1/75 for 15 minutes and photographed the film with a Nikon D200 on a homemade copy stand with the film placed on a small light box. Finally I used the old iPad with a photoshop program designed for it to prep the images. I was shocked I could use the lens from about 22mm up to 55mm with no significant vignetting. 25-55 with filter attached.

@mjferron Very nice!  Your D200 makes a fine film scanner.  What lens did you use to make the copy?  I've made ad hoc scans with my DSLR before with good results but never took the time to build a dedicated copy stand.

I used a 60 micro. Here a 2 photos of the stand I made. Cost me a about $30 US.  A much faster way to process film for online use than a scanner.

Great shot of King's Cross Station Luis.  The perspective has a short tele look to it.

[kmac]

Fine shots Luis .. where did you get the Paterson Acutol ? I'd love to get some.

[rick_drawbridge]

I doubt that you'll find Acutol out there kmac, unless some new/old stock is on offer somewhere. The fine images Luis posted are from the 1970's

Here are a few images from a series I rather ironically titled "The Lucky Country" depicting the gradual decay of our small towns. The camera was a Mamiya 645 1000s and the principal lens used was the Mamiya 55-110mm f/4.5 zoom, with the exception of the third image for which I used the Mamiya-Sekor C 55mm f/2.8 . The film was Kentmere 400 developed in Adox FX-39 II.

Thanks for pointing that out Rick. I tried Rodinal semi stand development the other night for the first time, weird results though, two indoor flash shots were excellent, but the rest on the film, outdoor sunlit but overcast, were crap. The camera was an unusual camera for me to be playing around with ... a bakelite first model Rheinmetall Perfecta, fixed focus single speed and "B", doublet, two elements cemented. Classy thing lol, self cocking as the film is being wound. The flash shots were shot on "B", with the flash fired manually using the red test button. I'll post some pics from my second film when I get it done.
