Hi james. No i dont think it is ..been taking pictures with kodak portra 160 also recently with a different camera and its still there. So i guess the scanner or the develop tank. As steven says it can be some calibration error but how do i calibrate my scanner .? I will try and scan without the film strip holder and indstead use two antinewton glas

Or scanner process

Nope. I hvae this when shoooting mulitble cameras. I think its something in my devloping process... The tank or something like that

<p>Often when im cross processing - this time fuji superia 100 from 2003 i get this anoying purple line often at to or three frames, the some frames without and then again some frames with. allways the same place. what am i doing wrong and what can i do? se attachment</p>

Ok thanks guys. Maybe ill have to do some with the fuji again beeing more patiened this time. But still the cyan green colors of the 669 is gone for ever. I think the fuji fp100c turns out very yellow...

I just dug into some of mine 15 years old polaroid transfers don with a land 180 and polaroid 669 and i discovered how much i like these colors. I used to roll them on different kinds of aquarell paper allways experimenting on the best papers. Anyway i miss this so much and i know that getting 669 films is now all over. Ive been trying with fuji fp-100c films but i dosent work. ( i guees not enough emilsion and have to bee done in darkness - so ive learned) anyway: does anyone know if is possible to ever get to do transfers again something like this - is it possible to do it with anykind of the impossible project films or other films ive never heard about? Ive uploaded a couple of mine transfers..

It sure is a lot cheaper and i dont think i will ever do portraits on the 2.8 anyway as i have a suspicion that 2.8 i quit soft even on the pentacon

Ok thanks. In time between ive been looking at a jupiter 11a - 135 mm/f4 which seems to be in good order and get quit good words around the internet. Is this anygood compared to the pentacon?

I saw this on ebay for around 90 dollars and im , like everone else, drawn towards that 15 blade bokeh . But i cant see / decide if it is any good in the glas and the whit spots kind of like fungus but the seller claims its ok. Does anyone have an oppinion about this? Also if anyone has a better idea for a nice 135 mm m42 lens. Thank sin advance. Ive uploadet two images ogf the pentacon lens im talking about.

Ok. Thnaks . Im calm to no that it is not my nice camera :-)

Ok. Thanks peter . That airfilter sounds interesting. Ill have a look into that...

...well not rubbing ..more hitting/ touching the steel edge and if you say that wet film is very vulnerable that can be it.

Ok. Thanks peter. Your right! I need to step up my development procedure and loose the hairdryer. I think the scratches can be caused by the film just slightly rubbing a steel table edge when hanging up the film. Sometimes one has do a lot of. Faults to realize that procedure has to be reorganized and i think ive gotten to that point :-) thanks for all your help guys.

<p>some of the kind yellow scratches could look like the negative base color i agree..</p>

<p>peter .. i will try your procedure and maybe even put op a drying line in my bath room. </p>

<p>i mean , as i wrote before i can move some with a finger nail i think indicating that some of it is dust and small fibers but do you also see it as scratches?</p>

<p>ok peter are you suggesting that it is scratches?</p>

<p>..and i just renewed the stabiliser. time to look at my developing process in stead of being focused to much on camera gear i guess </p>

<p>yeah its kind of embedded if i scratch hard enough i can remove them. come to think .. i experimented in hairdrying this roll and my room where i develop isn't that clean, laundry and so on. i hope this can be the solution</p>

<p>..fiber cloth</p>

<p>ok thanks larry. Actually the mirror of my new cosine fall out and i put it back with some super glue but because i touched the mirror i clean it inside the camera with a micro iber cloth on my finger. Is that the fibers from that? and if yes what to do. ps sorry for the double post</p>

<p>..maybe the lens coating? i suspect my self for being to sloppy in my processing but i not quit sure..and this one is reel bad</p>
