  1. Something like a Gowlandflex would get you similar results (short women), and use more modern lenses, shutters, etc.
  2. There's a whole heap of Graflex manuals at the Butkus site.

    The Wink

    This is hilarious and beautifully timed.
  4. Abbott was a great photographer--unflinching. We need more like her today.
  5. Vivitar, Bower, Opteka, Rokinon, etc. are usually the same.
  6. Making film negatives from digital is not uncommon at all--you can do it with an inkjet printer or a film recorder.
  7. What about "analogue" prints made from digital negatives?
  8. Hello! Never thought I'd post something like this, but I took an online challenge asking the viewer to choose which images were film, and which were digital. I did well, getting 21/24 correct. When I then asked myself which images I preferred, I found that I tended to pick the film images a little more often than the digital. No idea why.
  9. I love that picture, and the beautiful restoration work. Camera Work had an issue of color prints made from Autochrome, but I have no idea whether that was a "first". EDIT: This photo was originally made by a three-exposure camera, not Autochrome (just to clarify).
  10. Yup. No IR channel for true b/w film. Results are ug-LEE!
  11. I am going to give away a Minolta Scan Elite F-2900 scanner in working condition, with both slide and film trays. Recipient pays actual shipping costs. We "downsized" and our storage space is at a premium.
  12. I'm not criticizing his involvement. He liked the first movie, and urged Jackson to follow up with more of the same, but the director was too full of himself with "CGI Figures" and all that crap, rather than giving viewers the themes of the books. Also, in a photographic note, the color grading on LOTR sucked.
  13. I have always loved Autochromes, but they were NOT the "first color photographs". That honor belongs to the Hillotype process. There were also cameras that exposed b/w film through RGB filters, making three negs that could be used to produce finished color prints. Technicolor worked that way later on. The Lumiere Authchrome was the fist widespread, commercially available color.
  14. Yeah, and Viggo also hated those awful Lord of the Rings movies. No, he really did.
  15. I love my 2n, but the 1n is the kind of camera you tan take into the Ookabolaponganese jungle, and it will just work. The little motor drives are cute, too.

    Marvelous image, the bicyclist just makes the shot.

    I want my Cat back. (This one looks like mine.)
  18. These are all severely underexposed. The last two especially, because not only have you (incorrectly) set your exposure two stops too low, but the bright skies caused your meter to further underexpose. Shoot a roll at the rated speed (ISO 400) for this film, and I think you'll find the results much better. With color negative film, many of us tend to OVER expose--I shoot Kodak Portra 400 at 200, for example. You may have misunderstood some instructions you read?
  19. Troll? I hate to say that, so maybe it's a language thing.

    Cute and sexy. I would get rid of the worms (disembodied fingers).

    As sexy lingerie shot go this is nice, but it does have a bit of the glittery digital eye.
