Well I believe most FD Canons meter off the focusing screen, and I've never had a problem even with slides wide open.
I suspect issues that might come into play, depending on the lense and camera, is that a very strong vignette wide open, compounded by less than great transmission or flare properties on these super-speed lenses, combined with a metering pattern that might weight some segments of the frame more heavily than others, can result in strange metering.
But >>2888692 was intentionally underexposed, because I didn't want to go slower than 1/15 and I knew the film could handle it.

Because you're using a 20 year old CCD scanner and grainy film. Upgrading one or both of those things will probably help you.

god dammit, I am on my work computer so I don't have any full sized scans to post. Having to grab them from instagram.

The roll inside was from the previous night so I had been shooting it at iso 1600. Forgot the whole day that I had the meter on 1600 so all my shots were overexposed by 2 stops. Managed to save them a bit in post. Just goes to show how resilient Tri-X can be to overexposure.

Also, is the Canon 50mm f1.4 LTM a high or low contrast lens?

>>2888836
When you shoot tri-x at 1600, you are underexposing, mongo.
Also, high and low are relative terms.
Relative to an 80's 35-70, it's a high contrast lense.
Relative to the 18/2.8 in the GR, it's a low contrast lense.

I typed the wrong thing not once, but twice, that's my bad. I knew it was underexposing, I blame this god forsaken night shift.

Here is another from the same walk but with a different camera on correct meter settings. I posted this one in the other FGT but its the only other scan I have on this comp.

>>2888796

Nothing wrong with the scanner. It's better than ANY flatbed scanner of today. And it's from 2003 faggot.

>>2888793

APX-400 is grainy stuff. All iso 400 black and white films are grainy in 35mm. And your scanner is very sharp.

>>2888793
it's not because they're highlights, it's because the sky is smooth and detail-less which accentuates grain. in film, shadows have more grain and highlights less grain in general

literally could not be more wrong. highlights hold more grain in b&w negatives. if your shadows are really grainy its noise from your scanner accentuating a tiny tiny amount of grain that might or might not be there

thank you!

Choice of two labs near where I live. Which one would you use?

First one uses Fuji Frontier SP-3000 and scans at 1800x1200px which is the maximum size they can do apparently.

Second one uses Noritsu QS 32 and scans at 1500x1000px which is their normal resolution. You can pay more for high resolution scans which are 3000x2000px but it costs twice as much.

Both labs charge £7 for developing + scanning to a CD.

There's another lab which also uses the Frontier and they only charge £4, but it's quite far from where I live.

Max Spielmann uses the Frontier and an independent place called Advanced Photo uses the Noritsu.

There's an Asda which is about a 20 minute drive from where I live which also uses the Frontier and only charges £4.

All three places do it same day or within the hour if it's not busy.

But you shouldn't buy the film for it's colours. You fix that in post anyway.

Buy a film because of the grain/dynamic range/film speed.

I've always feared slide to due it's more finicky nature but I think shooting c41 for so long has made me become a bit lazy with trying to nail exposures. Plus, I've been seeing some fantastic stuff with Provia lately. Nail in the coffin was finding out reciprocity failure doesn't kick in until 4 minutes during long exposures.

I actually haven't even tried the 150 yet, hopefully next weekend. I've only owned the camera for a few weeks so far but I picked up a full kit of lenses since KEH was practically giving them away. Also, by chance do you have any experience with the prisms? I'm thinking of picking up a speed grip plus just the cheapest unmetered 90 degree prism, I think it would help me focus more accurately with portraits and stuff where the DoF isn't very deep.

Anyways I've been meaning to post a few photos now that I've been getting settled in with using this camera. I bought a whole bunch of different films to try them out, here's Delta 100 which seemed nice enough but I'm not sure why I would keep it on hand when I'm already used to Acros 100 and I don't really need two ISO 100 T-grain films.

I had a prism but the moment I got a WLF I never put it on again. Do you have a split focus screen in the camera? I find that more than adequate to hit critical focus when using the WLF. Is this your first experience shooting with a WLF? After awhile you'll get the hang of it and will become surprisingly quick to focus (assuming you have a split focus screen).

>>2889345
This is a nice shot by the way,and I completely agree with your sentiment. For 100 speed black and white there's no substituent for Acros.

I do have a split prism screen, maybe I'll just give it a shot and see how it goes. I'm just a bit worried because the DoF is always surprisingly thin. The WLF is great to use just for composing and I appreciate the size and weight savings of not having a prism, but it's kind of a pain when you have to actually use it for critical focusing with the magnifier.

Seconding this request. I've got 2 rolls of Provia. I'm going to load one in my F100, which I don't think will have any issue metering, but I'm not so sure about my FM2. I know to watch out for bright light sources, or compensating for shade but...

Is the contax g2 really such a huge step up from the g1?

I recently snapped up a completely mint functional g1 body for 30 bucks and plan on snapping up that beautiful 45/2 planar and probably the 90mm sonnar and then eventually the 21mm biogon

Is it really worth it to grab a g2 body instead of another beautiful g lens?

>>2889438
Glass before body always my friend.

>>2889442
Well sheit that does it. I'm really lucky this g1 I got is a green label then. The only lens I cant use is the 35-70

It's just weird seeing g2's go for like 600 dollars and g1's go for ~80

Howdy /fgt/, shot, dev'd, and scanned another roll today. Print making is on the schedule tomorrow. This series is coming along slowly but nicely. By winter I should have a good collection of images for a show or small book. I've continued to promise a thread but I'm lazy, and high most of the time, so who knows when that will be.

I got a Konica Auto S2 rangefinder about 3 months ago and I was only able to develop the photos that I took using it last week. It turned out that a lot of the photos that came out are not in focus.

If I can remember correctly, I was able to focus them properly. But I cannot say that I am an expert since I am used to focusing with the split focusing screen of the slr and not with the rangefinder focusing.

For the record, the photos that were out of focused was focused on infinity. Is there a possibility that it is a problem of the camera itself? Also, I was shooting with expired film (exp. date 2012). Does that matter?

I see this style of colouring in film photography all the time. Slightly washed out, but still nice warm tones and detail.

How do I achieve this look? Is it basically just overexposing slightly or is it something in the edit/film used?

All of my photographs look quite contrasty and I never feel like they have that 'magical' analogue warmth and depth.

100% editing. Film scans require post production just like digital files do. Stopping where your scanner leaves you is the same as leaving digital images as-is straight out of the camera.

Here's some more examples of what I mean but in a different styles. Really warm tones but nice and soft at the same time.

I think this guy just shoots with Superia and different compacts so it's not like any magical film/camera combination that's doing it. It's all in the edit.

It's just overexposed colour negative film. Overexpose by 1 stop or so and you'll get the same results.

It looks the best with Portra 400 imo, but you can use pretty much any colour neg film. Load a roll of film, but instead of setting your ISO to the box set it to one stop slower (so 400 film you do at 200, 200 film you do at 100 etc). Have it developed at box speed. Voila! Easy peasy

The results will be slightly washed out, lots of shadow detail and very smooth tones.

>>2889483
Not totally correct. You need to overexpose the film in the first place to get the shadow detail

But how do I get the warmth? It's almost like the shadows aren't ever 100% black but are like a really warm grey instead.

My shadows tend to look like a dark deep blue or just complete black. Is it just a case of lightening all the shadows and adding a warning filter?

Here's one of my photographs if anyway wants to have a play. This wasn't edited much apart from a crop/perspective correction. Vibrancy was lifted slightly.

An easel is a tool you use to hold the paper flat and create a sharp bordered frame. I use something like pic related. It's a nice convenience and really helps with ensuring the paper is in the same place every time.

These prints are nice for a beginner. If you like it, keep at it, it can be extremely rewarding, especially if you step up to medium format. If you don't know what that is, just start googling.

>This wasn't edited much apart from a crop/perspective correction.

Stop tossing the film into the scanner and crossing your fingers that the scanner gives you a file you like. Manually adjust the curves before scanning to give you a relatively flat image with no clipping of the shadows and highlights. Then take that image into post and play with curves, bumping the reds a bit to give more warmth and pulling the black point to avoid the black shadows.

You could also use the white balance dropper in the curves dialogue and click around on areas of the image that you feel are close to neutral grey. Sidewalks are usually a good candidate for this (and that's what I did in the attached photo + bumped the red channel a bit afterwards).

I have that camera. I got it for cheap because it's broken. Had it repaired and it works great.

I don't do my own scanning, so I'm kind of stuck there. I might start scanning the ones I like with my DSLR. I just ordered a sheet of opal acrylic.

The only problem is I've only got a Nikon D80 which doesn't have live view and is only 10MP. Is this still okay to make scans from?

I guess it's better than what I get from the lab which is 1800x1200 scans.

>>2889528
You'll be able to make it work, but it'll be annoying.

>>2889532
Which part, the lack of live view?

>>2889503
I heard that the Norwegian police had ordered a bunch of FM2s that were modified to where they exposed half frame.

Can you imagine giving one of those to your understudy with film preloaded and confusing them when they look through the viewfinder and see half of it blacked out with their photos halfway exposed? That'd be amusing.

>>2889533
Yeah and the lack of histogram. It'll be achievable but annoying. Once you get your focus and exposure nailed you'll be able to run through them much quicker

Can someone hook a brother up with a ColorPerfect serial / crack?

>>2889533
Dunno why the lack of live view would matter. Once you get the exposure and focus set you don't even really need to look at the camera other than to push the shutter.

The SP 3000 is a great scanner. The only problem is most labs don't have a clue how to use it and just scan your negatives on a preset with harsh contrast + sharpening which ruins your images.

http://jacandheath.com/self-scanning-fuji-frontier-sp-3000/

>>2889679
Does it have the ability to output at greater than 300DPI? Because 1840x1232 is pitiful resolution and makes editing so much harder. They call that 'Hi-Res' which is laughable.

>>2889692
it is hi res, whatchu talkin' bout fool?

>>2889693
maybe 30 years ago

>>2889693
I don't understand, you can get cheap home scanners which do 4800 DPI but this lab can't get anything more than thumbnail-quality images from a pro-grade machine?

>>2889695
They could, they just wont because it takes more time to get high res images. You get what you pay for. Pro Labs will give you amazing scans but you'll pay for it

>>2889695
Maybe, but that takes time to scan, more space, more memory. Then you gotta write those files to disc, more data is more time.

Chances are the photolab computers/scanners aren't ideal for that.

>>2889692
Yes it does but the labels just scan it through on a preset and that's the highest they can do. If you read the comments in that link I sent across people are scanning them at like 20MP.

You can use custom paper sizes instead of the presets for really high resolution scans. It also doesn't apply the shitty contrast/sharpening that it usually does and gives you a nice flat hi-res file.

The only issue is most high-street labs don't have a fucking clue and just run it through a normal preset. I even tried explaining it to one of the staff at my local lab and they looked at me like I was speaking a different language.

>>2889696
>>2889697
>>2889698
>:(

So if I got something like an Epson V370 and scanned at 4800 with a flat profile I'd see a big difference? Or I could go into the store and try to get them to scan at high-res without presets?

>>2889700
Flatbeds are garbage for 35mm. Either DSLR scan or get a dedicated scanner (Kodak Pakon F135, any of the old dedicated Nikon Coolscans or Canon Canoscans, or the Plustek OpticFilms are good)

>>2889701
Are there any which wouldn't break the bank? I don't really have the money to blow hundreds and hundreds on a scanner.

>>2889705
If you have a DSLR just use that. If you get it right you'll beat most scanners under $1000

Otherwise look at some of the older Plustek models. 7200, 7400, 7600, 8100, 8200 and 8200ai

Can be had for $150 upwards depending on model.

The cheapo things you get when you search "film scanner" on eBay aren't worth purchasing. Worse than the scans you're currently getting.

You could always go to a better lab to get your film done? There are a number of great mail in professional labs in the US. I know of a few in Australia too if that's where you're located

>>2889707
>Plustek
These look like what I'm looking for, though a lot of people are complaining about software and suggesting buying Vuescan which is almost as expensive as the scanner.

>You could always go to a better lab to get your film done? There are a number of great mail in professional labs in the US. I know of a few in Australia too if that's where you're located
I'm in the UK and unfortunately there aren't any photo shops in a 20-mile radius apart from Max Spielmann.

>>2889714
>buying

just torrent it my pal, the torrents are everywhere

>>2889715
Good point. Okay, well looks like I'll get myself a Plustek.

>>2889716
Let us know how that goes for you. I recently got one cheaply on a local buy/sell fb page and I'm pretty happy with it. Scans take a little while but I just leave em in the background while I watch netflix or browse 4chan. Just gotta manually move the negative carrier once every few minutes. I'll be posting in a week or so once I've got everything dialed in, overall I'm pretty happy with it.

>>2889716

Canon FS4000US and Minolta Scan Dual IV are also excellent scanners. Better than Plusteks as they have focus. But you cannot get drivers beyond XP for those.

if you want warmth just put up the warmth slightly, use colour balance, to take the colours out of blue and into the yellows and reds. also a simple s curve helps with the shadows and highlights, gives a better contrast

i took some pics on a nikon n6006 shot with fujifilm superia x-tra 400 at an anime convention. i used matrix metering on most of these pictures. how do i get good exposure for portraits? i heard i should use spot metering if my subjects are behind a light source. what else? also should i spring for a prime lens, i only have a nikon af mid tele 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5

Trip to oxford shot on provia and x-processed. using a cosina csm and a sunagor 28mm, i think i paid twice as much for the film as i did for the gear.

Luckily I work in a camera shop so I can dev my stuff for free. Unluckily the processor/scanner are so poorly maintained and nobody really knows how to operate them properly. Im going to have to bite the bullet and send the negs away to a pro lab or buy my own scanner ;_;

you don't need to buy a spot meter if you don't have one, just get used to how your meter works and compensate when shooting scenes with bright light by exposing 2 or 3 stops above what it recommends

>>2889874
Crop out the bottom 2/5 and you have a really cool photo. Nobody wants to look at some woman's fat ass when there's more interesting stuff going on elsewhere in the frame, but because the figures are the most defined shapes they're very distracting.

>>2889846
thanks man.

>>2889905
I only used the camera's metering system though something tells me.I should have used spot metering instead. Also what you side so I should use the exposure compensation.

Some lab scans with Agfa Vista 200.

First time I've ever used a polariser, I might use it all the time now. I like the way my sky actually has definition and isn't just blown out. I think it might even make the tones nicer as well.

Any C&C?

1/8

>>2889946
if you own a spot meter, then sure, use it
I'm just saying its not necessary to buy one because the metering mistake of backlit subjects is easily correctable if you pay attention


>Also what you side so I should use the exposure compensation
no, I didn't say that. I'm saying pay attention to the lighting and make the correction yourself, its not hard

How crazy is using a mirror lens on a film slr?

>>2890032
You typically need an ISO higher than 400, so it's a pain in the ass compared to digital. Also in body shake reduction, and ability to fire multiple carefree frames ftw.
