Film Camera Week for May 17


Recommended Posts

Greetings, all, and welcome to our new thread.  Post all the images you like from any film camera.  I'll start with a couple of short rolls of Fomapan 200 that I processed and scanned this week.  I used HC110 dilution H, but  I may have slightly underdeveloped it.

Hey Folks...
No slouching here.  I am still plugging away at the Kodak Tourist II. Not sure what's wrong. Exposures seem under - exposed or otherwise too dark.. no yellow filter here.
And... now new to me! first shots with the the 35mm Biogon 35mm. I've desired this lens for an eternity, but never could afford it. I could've maybe got the pre-war version, but I do have the nice Jupiter 12, and it's coated. In July last year  I bought a Black-Dial IIa, with the 1.5 50mmm Sonnar. Included was a 35mm finder. Now "cart before horse" I needed to find the lens for the finder 🙂
I found a sleeper(auction) in US, but I myself slept through it. Grrrr. So my self loathing gander was up! I saw one, here in BRD, opening for 250,00€. I was the only bidder. The seller accidentally sent me the Opton F2 Sonnar by mistake...and it was immaculate.  I sent it back...and now I have the compact heavy, short FL Opton Biogon. with case and cap
I shot two rolls. The first one listed is with the yellow filter. 
As a huge departure from my usual process.. I used Acurol-N @1:7 for 10min @20° .  I will need to adhere better to the "less agitation" . Maybe that is the problem with the 620 roll?!?

Many sources claim this "Anaston" is a triplet, others  state this was a Tessar..at least for this camera

Too Dark! Note the leaks along the edge.. likely related to loose  rolling to 620?

This is almost acceptable. The sky is bright..but here it looks overcast!

Replete with double exposure ..2 for 8?!?   The ghost is me!!

Hi Chuck @chuck_foreman1 , you have certainly been busy plugging away. And the photos from the Biogon 35/2.8 look lovely. I have only used its poor cousin Jupiter-9 and was not totally impressed. But your Biogon was well worth your wait.

Thank you Bruce.. I do feel vindicated for the long wait...  I have the Jupiter 12 and it delivers a nice punch too.. Try another..they are basically good!!  I do feel lucky in the bang for the buck... This lens is in excellent condition. And I didn't have to pay 400,00€

I've lost my picture-taking mojo the last couple of months and am trying to revive it.  I recently restored a Kodak Junior Six-20 (Series II) folder with the ubiquitous anastigmat 100mm f6.3 triplet and took it out for a spin.

The Junior Six-20 is a simple camera with an excellent lens.  It also has a relatively bright viewfinder and can be easily modified to accept a trimmed 120 spool on the supply side.

Here's my best shot from the roll.  Arista.EDU 100 developed in HC-110 and cropped to 1:1.
