trooper Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 I've recently been experimenting with some tanning developers and tofinish a roll of 220 HP5+ in one of my P67 bodies, I mounted a 200 andset off with the rig mounted on a monopod. The shots were of my son'shigh school soccer team playing a match. I was surprised at howdecently the Pentax handled the project. I don't recall seeing muchwritten on applying the P67's to this sort of duty. I loaded up somemore for a game a few days later and had a decent amount of things todevelop. The pictures printed beautifully and I was able to controlthe harsh highlights with the compensating effects of the Exactol Luxdeveloper I was experimenting with, too. The whole exercise was sort of a lark and a nice surprise to have turnout so well. Being able to print 8X10 and 11X14 action shots thatshow the threads in the players' uniforms was extremely gratifying! Perhaps I've got a skewed perception of the P67 doing mainly MLUtripod mounted duty, but it was quite capable for this fast movingaction and I'll continue to use it this way.

mark_newton1 Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 I've taken similar shots with excellent results. The only real difficulty I found was getting and keeping the subject in focus otherwise no drama. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
