These are from the Nikkormat FT3 and AI 50mm F2 lens. Film was Arista Pan 100 developed in Rodinal 1-25 for 6 minutes. The camera's meter was malfunctioning so this is not a good outing to judge the film.

I was so fed up with boring overcast dull  weather that I loaded up and went out to shoot some boring overcast dull photos. Contax RTSII with Tamron Adaptall 35-80/2.8-3.8 (O1A) on HP5+ in HC110 1+47 @ 20C for 12 minutes. Agit 1/min.

Last weekend I tried a new color negative film, Lomography CN400 in 120, since it was on sale before the holidays. The camera was a French TLR Semflex Oto B, with a Som Berthiot Flor 75/3.5 lens. The Flor is a Tessar design with very pleasing rendering, although its flare resistance (coating?) is worse than its German and Japanese competitors. Home developed in fresh Bellini C41 chemistry.

It's currently our annual 4-day Cruise event, bringing together the owners of mainly American vehicles from all around the country. I've shot mainly digital due to the sheer volume of interesting entrants, but I managed to capture a few images using the Yashica 230-AF with either the 35-105mm or 28-85mm Yashica (Kyocera) f/3.5-4.5 lenses. The film was Arista EDU Ultra 100 developed in Spur Acurol-N .

Some boring test shots from the first roll through my Agfa Jsolette with 85mm, f4.5 Apotar lens featured in the "What camera ..." thread.  Nothing artsy here.  I managed to take advantage of a lull in the rain to get these shots.  My goal was to test basic exposure and focus as well as ensuring the bellows were light-tight.  All shots hand held.  Since the lens is scale focused, I used a laser distance measure to determine the focus setting.

Film was Kentmere Pan 400 developed in HC-110.

Close focus test - 3ft - 1/100 @ f5.6

Mid-distance test - 15ft - 1/100 @ f5.6

Overall, I was very pleased with these initial results.  Focus is accurate, exposures were good (for a dull day), and the Apotar lens has good center sharpness.  Out-of-focus rendering (bokeh) is also pleasing.

IF you'Ve got  good gear, the overcast..can be overcome I think! Well Done!

Very impressed ..again ...with your home processing C41. This film (lens) seems to render nicely.  Some lens do seem to flare a lot easier than others. I have/had a theory. My Yashica Mat 80mm Yashinon suffers from this. also a TLR.  I believe it was contributor JohnS  who mentioned internal reflections may be causing this and he had doctored a TLR with more internal masking to cut down on possible reflections. IDR if he added  masking paper or painted a flat (er) black to overcome this?!?
