Heyo!

I just got a Canon extension tube FD 25 coupled with my FD 50mm f/1.4 on my canon A-1 body. I've been playing around with it and have been having a really hard time trying to get sharp focus. I haven't developed any rolls yet so i'm unsure whether my focus has been accurate. most of my photos have been shot around f/5.6 - 11.

 

Does anyone have any tips for shooting macro on a film camera?

 

Cheers,

So i've had my olympus pen eed for a while now and i noticed some battery corrosion forming on the battery contact inside the battery compartment. I unscrewed the metal contact bit and cleaned it up but when i went to screw it back on the nut on the otherside has fallen away so there is nothing to screw it to. You can hear the nut moving around inside the body.

 

Does anyone know how i could reconnect the metal contact so it will connect the electrical system back up?

 

I've attached some photos to show the problem.

Hello, Just developed a 120 roll of Ilford SFX 200 and there seems to be 2 marks on the negative. I've attached the images below. Let me know what you think it is. always trying to improve my developing workflow!

sweet. cheers for the clarification. I've clearly been counting the steps between zones as stops.

Hello, just trying to get some clarification on the zone system.

I'm under the impression that there is 4 stops between zone III and VII. I've heard some people saying that there are 5 stops, which has now confused me....

 

If i meter the scene and the:

- darkest area is EV 8

- lightest area is EV 12

 

If i place the metering for the darkest area on zone III where will my highlights fall? Zone VI or VII?

<p>Yes it was developed in stock solution of D-76 @ 20 deg celcius. Could it have something to do with the developer solution being near the end of its shelf life? Could these scatches have also occurred during the scanning stage? Or was it definitely loading the film onto the reel.<br /><br />The photo was taken at Wedge Island, WA </p>

<p>Hello, <br>

Just wondering if anyone can explain the scratches and spots on my B&W film? its a roll of Ilford delta 400 that was developed in Kodak D-76. Also the image seem to be really grainy, is this just the film type or the developer?<br>
