  1. First darkroom print - Exposure / test strip I have a question on setting the correct exposure for my darkroom prints I'm about to do in 2 days. Should I get the negative that looks to be evenly balanced and use that to make the test strip + determine the exposure for the rest of the prints? Thanks
  2. Thanks for the comments and information :) I'll stick to hc110 now due to restricted reasons. I'll either use xtol or hc110 in the future
  3. Im still thinking.. what developer should I choose? Im currently using hc110. Been using that since I started developing my own black and whites. Im currently thinking of xtol and d76. I want something that gives less grain, and probably less contrast. Any ideas? Thanks
  4. From my trip to Tokyo Leica iii // VC 21/4 // Delta 400 // HC110
  5. Oh, can I cover the plastic bottles with black duct tape?
  6. Kodak XTOL Storage I'm about to get my hands on some XTOL, never used it before. So I was wondering if I can store them in normal plastic 1L bottles with the bottle squeezed when the diluted solution is not all the way to the top? Thanks
  7. What size push-on cap would fit the 38/4.5 biogon? Or maybe other types because the push-on ones are quite expensive. Thanks
  8. Should I buy a new strap? All 3 of my cameras havea a cam-in strap, because they're cheap. Thinking of changing one just to make thigns fresh. I'm looking for a black one, not leather because I don't like the feeling of them. Sailor straps are a bit expensive. I have 2 exact same straps that's why, and they look like this. Thanks
  9. Why does my color photos turn out like this? I scan them myself using my 9000f mark 2, developed by the lab. This is a roll of portra 400, doesnt look like one to me. Lab scans look better to me
  10. Should I buy keep the filter or buy a useful one for my collapsible summicron? The filter currently on my cron came with a lens I bought a while ago. I don't like using uv filters, but I also want to keep the images as original as possible cuz adding colored filters would add more contrast. Thanks
  11. Should I buy a light meter for street? I want to buy a voigtlander vc meter, but not sure if I need one for street, as my phone or sunny 16 would work. any suggestions? Thanks
  12. Yellow / Orange filter for low contrast? I know lowering the contrast depends on the developing time which I will do, but I just wanna ask which filter would help with it. I'm thinking of a orange since it smoothens things. The filter is also to protedct my collapsible summicron which is known for having a weak front element. Thanks
  13. Should I sell my VC 21/4 LTM to get a VC 15/4.5 or get the M mount version? I read many reviews again and I still go back to the 21, but the price is really keeping me want to get one. Should sell my VC 21/4 LTM to get a VC 15/4.5 or get the M mount version? I'm planning on gettinga 35 for my M2 so I'm not sure, I also know that the VC 21 is probably the best lens Voigtlander has made
  14. M2 timer screw? Does anyone know where I can find these 2 things? DAG is selling a brand new timer screw for 41US, which is expensive to me. Still can't fine the top part for my summicron, do I really just have to buy a cheap lens then take it off? My M2's screw looks like that
  15. Voigtlander Color Skopar 35/2.5 ii VS Voigtlander Nokton 35/1.4 SC I shoot black and white, so I think the color skopar would be more suitable?
  16. Thanks guys :) To be honest, the Handevision Iberit 35mm f2.4 looks pretty good, gonna have a look at that
  17. Still deciding on the nokton 35/1.4 sc or color skopar 35/2.5 ii
  18. I agree, the 35/3.8 summaron is my other choice, just sold my 35/3.5 summaron ltm tho!
  19. 35mm M Mount Lens for Under 650US? I'm about to get a M2, so I was wondering what 35mm lens I should get for it. I want a Voigtlander Nokton 35/1.4, but my dad already has it, so I'm thinking of getting the Voigtlander Color Skopar 35/2.5. I might use my SM lenses on my M2
  20. I don't know, I'm up for vintage looks, but for some reason I just don't wanna sell my cron!
  21. Not here in Hong Kong! Everything is expensive, even on ebay
  22. Hmm is it really worth it? Should I just stick with what I have as usual?
