Since the other thread is dead, I'm going to repost.

Not sure about Velvia 100F. I think I'm going to like Velvia 50 better. Got two rolls of it I'm gonna shoot during the weekend.

What should I do. I've acquired 80 rolls of ten years old expired fujicolor 200

>>2924084
In my experience, Velvia 100F is just very...sterile. It is still a more saturated slide film, but it doesn't have that vibrancy that 50 has, but at the same time it doesn't have enough characteristic to really stand out like a lot of other films. It's just perfectly adequate.

>>2924091
>I've acquired 80 rolls of ten years old expired fujicolor 200

shoot the fuck out of it. shoot it at box speed. after first roll, see if it needs more exposure (rating it at iso 80 for example). im betting it wont need it, film is like that, super cool, immortal and shit.

>>2924092
I think it is more useable in scenes with lots of snow, but then again, I would rathee shoot Portra 160... as you said, it's an OK film. I think it lacks some sharpness, but that might be my focusing which is a bit off. Focused this without glasses on.

That depends on the price and how much film you process. If you process a lot of film, it will be cheaper in the long run. Right now I pay $10 per roll of 120 film I get developed. I'm looking into doing it myself.

>>2924099
what exactly does this do?

>>2924111

saw a jobo on sale on ebay for a very good price but without the filling/draining system on it.. even so it wont cost much to buy them.

>>2924114

an equipment for lazy photographers who likes to shoot film and dont want to spend time and money to process their films at a photolab.

>>2924091
Buy some C-41 chemicals, 5l kit lasts you 100 rolls, a digital thermometer, and a big old bucket.

>>2924121
no I wasn't asking about that (I develop c41 and B&W myself at home), but more about the Jobo lift thingy

Not enough decent shots to make a thread of it, but I wanted to share a few shots from the Agat 18K.
Really enjoyable to use, and the quality of the images were better than I expected.
A bitch to scan though.

You can talk about preferences in terms of look, but one thing Velvia 100F (and all current Fuji slide) most certainly is, is sharp. Focus with your glasses next time son.

>>2924253

>>2924099
sure

for B&W it is great if you are lazy like I am they are great. I don't have a Jobo but I do have a roller for my film tanks that lets me walk away it it agitates itself.

for Colour, really great. colour can be done by hand (I do it) but these are a godsend.

>>2924121
also photolabs are getting hard to come by, I started doing my own colour because sending film across the country is a pain in the ass and expensive in shipping. Colour kits are cheap and easy to get.

mamiya c330 or bronica sq-a?

>>2924474

bronica. but get a nice and humble tlr too, like a yashica mat.

So the school i work at gave me this to play around with indefinitely. Are there any quirks I should be aware of (like the risk of jamming a hasselblad if you do the order of things wrong)? I don't think it has been used since Provia 100 went out of production...

I'm sure that, if you're looking at it with crazy magnification, it's not quite as sharp as 50, but Velvia 100 is still about as fucking sharp as you can get. In fact, next to Velvia 50 or Ilford's Pan F+, I can't think of a sharper film (without getting into scientific films or crazy exotic films).

>shifted red into yellow
Nigga what are you doing? That's the wrong fucking direction. Most lush, foliage-heavy shots like this have way too much yellow. You need the reddish tones to really help out with the wood.

If you have too much red, you balance that with complimentary colors (such as cyan if it's true red or green if the red is more magenta). Also, when you're scanning film and you have color casts, you really need to be working with luminosity masks and individual color curves. It's a fuck ton more accurate than shifting around hue and luminosity. Whatever you do, you don't take a piss on the entire photo and turn everything yellow.

Here's a quick whack at this potato scan. It ain't perfect, but it's a damn sight better than turning it all yellow.

>>2924821
Holy shit your monitor must be awful if you think this is improvement

>>2924480
Like >>2924572 said, those are built like tanks. As long as you don't do anything complete retarded, you'll be fine. They were a work horse camera for 30 years for a reason. Apart from the weight, you'll be surprised at how easy they are to use. Especially for the RZ's (and especially the later models, like the Pro II bodies), it's actually hard to fuck up the mechanics.

>>2924825
Ah, yes. The "your monitor must be awful" meme. The last resort of somebody who can't actually describe what, exactly, they don't like about a photo.

It's too warm and you've basically destroyed any concept of blue to balance it

You're either very dedicated to the art of creep shots or you misunderstood street photography. I guess it's the Finnish way.

Pic is a snapshit from vacation, Portra 160, taken with an Olympus OM-1 and a Sigma 75-250mm shit tier telelens with a very annoying loose sun cover which I can't seem to remove

I'm not the op or any of the other people but I gave it a shot, on print calibrated monitor, using Alex's luminosity mask method.

Really this comes down mostly to personal taste once you remove the overall casts.

shit weighs like 8lbs of imbalanced weight.

I got the wet-printing bug something fierce. Alas, the only suitable space in my apartment is a combined bathroom and laundry room, which has two windows w/ blinds in the middle, both facing a lit street. My questions are two: can this be adequately lightproofed with e.g. enough layers of black-and-white plastic (like potheads use to line their grow cabinets, but black side facing in)? Secondly, is it feasible to lightproof the door -- and if so, how?

Thirdly, how much is this kind of a lark going to run me? Is it worth going for a diffuser-type enlarger up front, or should I stick with a junk-sale condenser type?

>>2925103
I do it in a shitty basement storage room with towels shoved under the door and dark cardboard in front of the ventilation shafts. If you can sit in the darkened room and not see shit after ten minutes, it's fine. If you want to be really sure, take a piece of photo paper, put a coin or something on it (immediately after removing from box) and let it rest for the time you think you normally have paper out of the box and add some for error margin. Develop the sheet as you would normally (fix properly, rinse extra properly and let dry also very well, preferably in the dark. Take it out into bright light after it's dry and look, if you can see the shape of your coin, the gray around it will be the amount your prints are darkened due to improper light sealing.

>>2925474
You can. Just buy a Bessa R3. Yeah, the shutter is louder. Yeah, you won't get the hipster cred. Yeah, you get a smaller camera like the CLE.

No-one will notice the shutter unless you're in a silent place taking a creepshot. Don't do that. Only you really notice the shutter going CLACK CLACK.

>>2925476
Just would like it if I could have a viewfinder with dedicated 28 and 40 frame lines. R3 has the 40, but all the other frame lines are superfluous to my needs or wants. Too bad there's no aftermarket customization for these sorts of things. Guess I'd better get used to hotshoe viewfinders...

Modern digital APS-C is fine with lenses designed for it.

But yeah, 35mm is baby format. Even baby 6x4.5 dwarfs it. Once you move onto 6x7, 8 and 9 it's like a point and shoot or mobile phone.

You're trying to argue that an instrument's voicing isn't important. You really, really need to step back and reevaluate your life, figure out why you feel the need to be pointlessly contrarian on an anonymous image board.

While we're at it, why are you being pointlessly contrarian too?

I'm not the one being contrarian m8. I didn't go out of my way to latch onto some minor illustrative example in a post, ignore the most important aspect of that illustration, then pretend that I showed it to be wrong.

Guys I just got a new job and I'm gonna buy myself a Bessa R2 to celebrate. I need to decide on a lens though still. Is the Voigtländer Color Skopar 35mm f2.5 the bestest?

Well, it's quite a special genre, it's not done a lot these days, at least not how it was done some decades ago. The idea is that you get candid yet interesting and quality scenes on camera. Composition is (as always) important and that's not easy, seeing that your subjects can't really know they're being photographed. Here lies the (only) similarity with creep shots. Thing is, you can't just make a photo of someone and call it street photography. The photo in >>2924883 is just horribly composed. The only redeeming factor is the gate that sort of nicely frames the picture, but the subject is too small, too centered and too uninteresting.

either the color skopar or 1.4 nokton

Silly question about fixer.

As time goes by my fixer gets worse and worse, I usually mix it at 1+14 because I'm cheap and process irregularly. I started fixing for 10 minutes and had some unfixed portions. I cut off some film and timed how long it took to clear, about 7 or 8 minutes. From what I've read I've to double that.

My question is how long can I keep this up for? Will it eventually exhaust completely or can I keep pushing it until my own breaking point?
>>2925749
>>2925879
Skopar > Nokton. The nokton is nice, but like the 50 1.5 it's soft as shit. At MFD you'll be caught in a swirl of bokeh you may find unappealing.

If you're only looking for multi exposure there are lots of other EOS bodies that do the same for less money. If you're shooting casually, you probably don't need all those autofocus points.
Even a cheap-ish body like the EOS 300 will do most of the things you want it to do.
>>2926776
No, If you scanned it yourself it may be better but if it's underexposed on the negative there's not much you'll be able to do.

idk guys why you hate grainy so much, if so - why don't you shoot digital?

Hi /fgt/,
is there any way to tell if the film has been exposed to light or I just fucked up making the developer?

I put the film in the tank in someplace I thought was dark, but after my eyes adapted to darkness I noticed it wasn't as dark as I thought... still decided to give this roll a shot and developed it and the result is that it's just black.

I put negs over a frosted glass lamp and take photos on my phone to preview. Works fine, but it's not gonna beat a good scan. Needlessly expensive but a solid concept if you're realistic about how it'll turn out.

I'm sat patiently scanning some HP5 at 1600, babby's first two stop push. ID-11. It's gonna take forever cos I'm using pointlessly high scan settings, I lied about being patient. The grain looks pronounced through a loupe (backwards 50mm enlarger lens...) but I'm legitimately amazed by the contrast. Anyone here pushing two stops (or more) regularly? Some seem like they're just pure black and pure white!

holy shit, how do you guys raise the temperature of your chemicals? It's so fucking annoying putting the chemical bottle in the hottest water the tap puts out, it's fucking slow as shit. does everyone put up with this?

>>2927521
You talking about colour chem? I eyeball all the temps for my black and white.

>>2927524
yeah, c-41

Getting the chems up to the temperature is the most boring, time-consuming part of the whole thing

>>2927524
This. Getting between 19 and 21 C is easy as tuning the faucet a bit with a thermometer in the stream.

>>2927535
>>2927521
I've bought a Tetenal C41 set, as B/W developing was going very well. I did a few 'dry runs' to see if I could effectively maintain the temperature of a filled sink within a 0,1 C deviation for an extended period of time, before I start possibly wasting photos, film and chemicals. It wasn't easy, I'm thinking of doing my next colour roll myself, but the margin of error is really narrow.

>>2927543
after you get the chemicals to the target temperature, it doesn't drop fast enough i think to make a difference. but I live in warm climate, maybe that's helping me.

another thing that annoys the hell outta me is the Blix leaking out during inversions with this shitty paterson tank cover. probably leaks with developer too but it's hard to tell

I use hot or warm water in a bigger jug that my smaller jugs sit inside. Just general hot water to no specific temperature so I keep a close eye on. Stir with the thermometer and measure from close to the middle of the liquid. This is for b/w though, I guess if you're using glass bottles it's different.

Over the past few months, I've home developed 12 color negative rolls, all Superia 400 and 800. My biggest disappointment has been that I haven't improved in my ability to develop film.

I don't actually know if this is a developing issue, but I seem to get this strange discoloration on all overexposed skies (see picture). A lot of white/yellow specks and tiny white blobs all over the film. I also get a lot of water dry marks on my film. I thought that's what the stabilizer was for. Should I just get photo-flo and skip the stabilizer that comes with the dev kit?

If it doesn't get better I think I'll cut my losses and just send my film to get developed by labs.

I'll probably get jumped on for this, but I use the microwave to warm my chems. Been doing so for the past 3 years. Haven't noticed any degradation of the chems, damage to the microwave, or deteriorating health. Latest 2L c41 kit was mixed in June 2015, has about 50 rolls through it, and is still working. Chems are stored in 2L soda bottles.

Call me redneck if you wish, I'll accept the compliment.

>>2927648
> Make sure your developer/blix are at exactly 102ºF–I usually set the thermometer in my bottles for over an hour until they are a steady 102.
>Put your developing tank in the water bath with your chems to keep it at a more stable temperature.
>Make sure you're doing a pre-wash and you're filling/emptying at least 7 times (or until you see absolutely no color change) between developer/blix/stabilizer.
>Stabilizer just preserves the dyes over time, add some photo flo to your final wash and squeegee from there. I squeegee twice down, turn the film over and do it twice more, and one more for good measure going the opposite direction.
If you still have problems after this it's most likely your chemicals or if you're really terrible your agitation technique.

>>2927535
Just get some water on the stove to ~120ºF and about an hour before you plan on developing soak your chemicals until they baseline, then it's usually just a matter of adding hot or cold water to bump it up a few degrees

>>2927577
I've read this is rebranded Fuji Superia. Some of their disposables have 27 exposures. Still a really cool label

remember when lots of us bought 10X TriX 35mm film rolls for $7?

did anyone get them yet? ;__;

Bought a Konstrutor for shits and giggles. What kind of film would be a good start if I can only shoot at 1/80sec and f/10? I'll have my dslr around to meter with, but would like recommendations

>>2927648
Stabilizer is used to halt the dyes from fading, and to put some biocidal stuff into the gelatin to keep micro-organisms from eating it. While it also typically has some photo-flo type stuff in it, the real reason to not wash after stabilizing is so that the latter function isn't compromised. It does nothing for the image, for better or worse -- so your fault is somewhere else. (I'd go with some kind of agitation defect in this case; are you inverting the tank, or just using the agitation rod?)

For black and white film, we use just the photoflo because silver in itself is biocidal.

Why do different dilutions of the same chemical have an effect on the final image?

I'm looking at ID-11 and it says stock (1:0) has "best overall image quality at meter setting", whereas 1:3 has "maximum sharpness". I understand why different developers look different, but why the same developer at different strengths when you compensate for extra time at weaker dilutions? It seems like it holds true for other chemicals too.

>>2927783
Jelly, I want a Konstructor. Probably use something fast, maybe set your DSLR to auto ISO with 1/80 f10 and see what ISO the meter spits out. Throw a 400 speed film in and push it accordingly in development.

>>2927559
Yeah I have a weir brandless tank and it leaks like a mare in heat. I recently acquired a full darkroom set from someone who quit printing and it included a tank with a screw cover, but it looks very old and dirty. It might be worthwhile to clean it and see if it fares better.

Anyone have a Zuiko 35mm f2.8?
Have a 50mm 1.8 for my OM1 but it's a bit tight, though from reading reviews the 35mm 2.8 is pretty garbage.. the 50 seems fine to me so comparatively how bad is it?

All zuiko lenses, even the zooms, are fantastic; especially for the price. But do remember that they've got coatings from the seventies and eighties, and that wide-angle lenses are prone to flaring without a hood.

I've got both the 35/2.8 and 28/2.8, and they're about as nice as OM-system Zuiko stuff gets. So, not modern-day Nikkors, but not as far behind as the price difference would indicate.

>All zuiko lenses, even the zooms, are fantastic; especially for the price.

Are the Zuiko lenses better than the old Nikkor AI lenses? Especially when adapting them to m43?

>>2927794
50mm 1.8 was the standard lens sold with the OM-1. It's a fine lens, as are all Zuikos. Some of the Sigma OM lenses are crap, I have a 75-250mm telelens and it's good I got it for free, because it's crap. Some of the Vivitar OM lenses are surprisingly good, despite their shitty reputation, I use the 35-70mm all the time. The primes are however, vastly superior. The 50mm is very good, but the 135mm is my favourite lens of them all. It's excellent for portraits and other situations where you aren't moving too much and don't want to be breathing down your subject.

>>2927802
Shit, forgot to add that adapting for m43 does create a telezoom effect because of the crop factor. This will limit the use of OM film lenses. Which is a shame, because I wanted to use all my lenses for moving partly to digital.

Following the instructions of the kits, I agitate with the rod the first 10 seconds, then I do 4 inversions every 30 seconds afterwards. I do this for developer and blix steps.

>>2927748
>and you're filling/emptying at least 7 times (or until you see absolutely no color change) between developer/blix/stabilizer

Yeah, I don't do any wash between dev and blix (though I do rinse it right before the stabilizer). The main problem I see here is that the filling/emptying water won't be 102 degrees and it will undoubtedly change the film's temperature, possibly creating a temperature gradient across the film from the filling and emptying. On the instructions, blix actually has a 95-105 degree range, so hopefully that wash won't affect it negatively.

>shoot several rolls of film
>scan only a strip or two of 5 frames
>probably only 1 or 2 shots I like total

Man, film is brutal. Mostly because scanning is so time consuming. Now every time I'm about to take a picture, I'm going to have to ask myself: "Is this shit interesting enough that I'm going to bother scanning it later?"

>>2928293

>>2928293
good?
that will make you a better photographer, being more selective and not snapshitting like anyone with a dslr.

>>2928293
thats good anon. youll gt more selective.

i probably fire the shutter less tham 10% of the time i look through the viewfinder and compose a shot. i typically get ~4 keepers out of 12 on a roll of 120.

>>2928338
>taking fewer photos makes you better photographer
Inherent cognitive dissonance

>>2928345
learning to distinguish what is and isn't worth taking a photograph of is all a part of learning and training your eye.. you shoot film like digital and you'll be upset, as he was, that barely any of those 36 images are worth keeping, and so you become more selective, and then learn, and see that over time more and more of the shots you've taken on a roll are good photographs.
Snapshitting 1,000 photos isn't going to teach you anything and is in fact counter productive to your growth as a photographer as you don't train your eye to see things well, you train yourself to be lazy and take 100 photos of the same thing and then find the 1 you like and edit it until you get something half decent.

>>2928345
fewer at the beginning to start making better pics and then a lot of good pics

when I studied photography one teacher told us to get an old 64mb memory card and tape our zoom lenses at 50mm (many people didn't have fixed lenses) and shoot like that for a few months

>my friend tries this with film

>still takes him weeks to shoot a roll of film
He'll never improve even by being selective, because it's like he has no self filter.
>>2928352
He also tried this with an SD card and ended up using burst mode.

>>2928360
well then he's an idiot

>>2928352
> at 50mm
Yeah sure cause most ppl start shooting with FFs right ? I actually do that except I don't tape my lens and set it to 32mm

>>2927929
Just find a mark on your faucet where you can get within 10ºF of your water temp and memorize that for future use. I've never had any issues with my film changing temperature after washes. Only on the first wash do I try to get it within (+-)2º do I don't shock my film when I add the developer.
C-41 is honestly super simple with only the developer needing to be as a concrete temp. I'd advise you just wash more between steps, Ive still poured out different colored water after the 7 fills so just do it until it looks mostly clear. And I just fill it roughly full and then slosh it around for a few seconds and dump.
I follow these same instructions for E-6 which is undoubtedly less forgiving and more finicky so if you slow down and adjust your methods a bit more I think you'll find C-41 is really pretty simple.

>>2928177
How do you like 400X compared to 100F? It's the only emulsion I haven't tried from Fuji

>>2927742
That's an interesting idea, I'm more impressed you got 50 rolls out of a 2L kit, do you just mark down how many rolls you've put through it and adjust your times? I'd imagine your developing time must be super long if you haven't refreshed it any

cont. it has the same tones found in those sweet ass tarkovski polaroids. would buy a book of this, swear.

Bought a cherry Nikon FE and 35 2.8 AI-s on the road for 140 bucks, with two Hoya UVs and a Tiffen CPL, and a 2x Soligor tele that ain't too shabby and has a removable element that turns it into a macro extender.

How bad did I fuck up /p/?

Saw one of these color enlargers and a b&w enlarger at goodwill, but they were already sold.
I don't have space for a darkroom anyway...

At least I found 6 rolls of film for 3 bucks though.

>>2928433
I don't really keep track. 50 was a guess. I'm sure my process wouldn't stand up to a control strip run through a densitometer. But I've run enough rolls now that when i detect (by eye) that the density has dropped slightly, I add another 15 seconds. It works for me, might not for others.

>>2928792
I need one of those things too, working with loose colour filters in the b/w enlargers I already have is also a possibility, but I can't find any loose filters anywhere. Also, everyone advises against doing colour at home because supposedly it's next to impossible to get close to even drug store tier prints. B/W printing is so fun though, I really want to do colour too.
