invisibleflash

I was in the dark standing round at 2 am at a Bikers' Mardi Gras celebration. A couple came to stand near me. I could not see them well. The gal squatted down which looked kinda odd. Could not see much, thought she was peeing. I had my infrared camera with IR flash...so I took a photo to see what they were doing. No pee, just squat. IR flash let me see in the dark where my eyes could not see.

I thought all sheet film camera lenses had shutters. Was it for lenses that didn't have a shutter? Or something else?

Now, here is a instant collection I just bought on eBay. The seller has the same thing with old trains. But they are 10 times this price. Also, many 16mm cine films on trains I'd love to buy...but too $$ for me. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/lL0AAOSwHMVhs5OA/s-l1600.jpg Photo link from eBay. 750+ slides from Mexico pyramids and ruins. for $70 + $15 shipping. Nice quality too. So, in answer to your inquiry. If you are lucky, the pickers will disperse your photos on eBay. The Gold MAM-A DVD's were touted as an archival option for optical media. Well, they are marginally better than AZO silver DVD's, but not by much. In sun tests the AZO Silver DVD's died on average at 25 days of sun. The Gold MAM-A DVD's lasted 27 days in the sun. The old Kodak 100 years Gold DVD's lasted 33 days. The Kodak DVD's were the best I've tested other than M-Disc. But Kodak discontinued them long ago. Any current Kodak Gold production is said not to be the same as the original production. (But I have not tested them.) The Kodak Gold disc I tested was one of the last of the 2007 production. M-Disc on the other hand lasted a year in the sun with no issues whatsoever. Today I went to restock my inkjet printable 4.7gb M-Disc DVD's and they look to be discontinued. Even the branded non-printable M-Disc DVD are gone. All they have is Blu-ray M-Disc and the higher capacity multi- layer M-Disc. What a mess. I looked all over hell and nothing. Some people are selling a box or a handful here or there at inflated prices. I am a big user of the 4.7gb M-Disc with my archival work. Don't know if it is something temporary or not. But have gone back to the crummy Gold MAM-A discs and am saving my 73 remaining 4.7GB M-Disc for important projects. Gold discs don't suffer from disc bronzing as far as I can tell. Once your silver discs start bronzing, the writing is on the proverbial wall. Internet Archive Search: disc bronzing teoli M-Disc does not seem to suffer from disc delamination either. Internet Archive Search: DVD delamination teoli Gold discs are a better option that silver AZO discs, but in my opinion, they are overpriced for what they offer. And as far BD-R for archiving. Here are some tests I did. All BD-R media is not the same. Blu-ray Discs …they are not all the same. – Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection – II (home.blog)

People don't care, especially for memes. Low res, watermark or not. If I was you, I'd be more worried about your photos dying with you than people reusing. Maybe if you are in it for the $$, then worry some.

Thats right, plus password protection. Put your stuff on M-Disc or hi grade BD-R.

Leica perfected the rangefinder. But the cost is stupendous. I was always hoping Fuji would have made a Leica knockoff for half the price of a Leica. And they could have improved on the Leica sensor that is usually outdated by the time it comes out. For the money they charge, Leica sensors should be top shelf. Maybe Leica has changed, I have not kept up with them. But that was how it was. This company produced a nice looking camera. But not for me. If they shrunk it down like an old half frame 35mm, then maybe. But it has to be Leica like, all manual.

OP... covid mess up my street work in NYC. I'm old and 30 years in the darkroom wrecked my lungs, so not taking any chances riding the subway. Then in April of '21 I injured my plantar fascia and could not walk much. If you can't walk, street work is kinda tough. 9 months later and foot is still bad. I can walk a few blocks on a good day then it hurts the rest of the day. I do lots of archival work, scans and working with cine' film. VHS archive, audio archive. No shortage of work for me. Plus, I have 9 years of my own photos that need looking through. A few years ago, on a rainy Sunday I went into B&H. shot infrared flash for about 20 minutes out of boredom. Not caught once. Maybe I can get to in in 2022. If not, they are all backed up on SD cards, HDD, Blu-ray disc and M-disc. Here is a film I just found on a 'pig in a poke' reel. I scanned it a few days ago. The Segregated Swimming Hole. It was faded Anscochrome, so turned it B&W. The Segregated Swimming Hole D. D. Teoli Jr. A. C. : D. D. Teoli Jr. A.

Optical sound can be recovered with it, but it is very laborious to do it. I write to art philanthropists...but never get a reply. Later tonight I hope to put up Christmas Eve's. An 'art students' film. ...Happy Holidays to all!

Yes, agree, but hopefully you won't get caught.

Consent? That is for street portraits where you can't get the shot candid or can't perfect the shot candid. Otherwise...I shoot for candid work.

Nice. Get some graff DVD's to watch. It may not help, but will give you insight into their lifestyle.

M43?? M43 is a great camera...except they are hard to adjust manually when shooting on the fly. I used them extensively for year or so but had to give them up. I could only shoot on the dummy setting. I couldn't figure out how to adjust them. If they made one like the old Olympus Pen 1/2 frame 35mm cams they would be a fantastic street cam. It would be stupendous. But it must be Leica like. Too bad they never came out with one. I wrote to Olympus numerous times to suggest, but never a reply. All shot with a mini Olympus M43...

Loads of videos attesting yo the $950 shopping sprees. It is real and not only in Frisco. In Jersey City they lock up toothpaste and lots more for that very reason. OP, if worried, travel with cheaper camera gear. That is what I do if in a dangerous local. I have 3 levels of gear. Disposable, medium and high end.

OP, don't worry about it. It is easy for things to get away from us unless you keep strict records. It is like money in the bank.

Sometime change is good, sometimes it is not. I don't have many photo forums I'm on. Where else do you frequent for photo discussion?

The cart is not for moving heavy things, it is for buying square inches for temp work. Just ordered another #50 cart. Love it! I can buy a few extra square inches of work space. A guy I met that had taken a trip to Tokyo told me in Japan they don't go by square feet with apartments...they go by square inches! I guess he was joking, but I can understand. I'm grateful for a few more square inches.

I wondered why they didn't have one here. I like them. Will this forum go poof one day? I mean sometime soon from not having an owner?

Don't like him. The big cheese curator John Szarkowski made him. Most of his stuff is boring crap. But you know the saying...opinions are like assholes...everyone's got one!

It is a nice forum. Too bad not more participation, but I've seen worse. Who pays the bills? It can't go on for free as far as internet costs.

Thanks, I have a ton of WordPress sites already. I've been all over the internet over the last 15 years. And much of it has been deleted.

Now, if you plan to try to contribute your collection/s to special collection libraries; one thing to consider is to not tell them you have it all on the internet. It is OK to have a sampling, but I've been rejected a number of times from donating material because the small minded curator said it is available on the internet. Stupid policy...but that is how some small minded curators think. Searching a huge archive on the internet is not the same as having it at your finger tips on the computer. What is on the internet, probably is not of the resolution as could be available with the acquisition. And lastly, the internet is not archival. A lot of what I've put on the internet has been deleted by the people running the websites. And even if you don't offend anyone, once you stop paining the bill your website goes poof! Same with the cloud...30 days in arrears and it gets deleted. Here is something interesting, a VHS tape of music boxes and automata. I had over 1100 hundred tapes in the collection, but a flood in '01 wiped them out. Having rebuilt the collection over the years it is about 700+ tapes now.
