Opinions on the Plustek vs Epson scanners for 35mm?

inb4 DSLR scanning, I've only got a Nikon D80 which doesn't have live view/can tether to my computer and isn't great quality.

The scans I get from my local lab are so shitty. Pic related.

You just can't see it when scanning with shitty flatbed or ghetto dslr kit.

Plustek generally give better quality than flatbeds. They're slower and can only do one frame at a time.

Flatbeds are a lot faster but the quality isn't as crisp.

The grain detracts from detail far less than the hands being slightly out of focus. With the way it's in the picture, all that's there to see in the fingers is grain rather than expected fine detail. Rest assured that it wouldn't look any better with a fine-grain film.

Also, embrace the grain. Don't be the guy who's dissatisfied about getting a nice shot on Delta 3200.

Enlarger lens.png
402KB, 503x486px
I'm looking for a new enlarger lens, as my current one (Rodenstock Roginar 2.8/50mm) has a weird blur in it. I first though it was just some dust/fingerprints but it seems to be either inside the lens house or it's some kind of degraded coating. Is the threading all the same on most enlarger lenses? I have a busted MF enlarger and it uses a much smaller threading than this one (which seems to be 38mm). Any tips on buying, perhaps? All help is welcome.
>>
This is probably a common question. Has anyone ever had bad experiences taking film through airport scanners. I'll be taking 400 ISO film on a short trip tomorrow.
>>
>>2931421
It will be fine.

I've even taken film through ex-Soviet scanners and it never affected it.
>>
>>2931421
Yes, it really differs. I was afraid I was going to be forced to scan my film (I had some Superia 800 with me for museum non-flash photography and higher ISOs are more vulnerable to radiation) so I called the Dutch customs agency ahead of my departure and they said it wasn't a problem to have them not scanned. When I was at the airport however, there wasn't a customs agent to be seen, as apparently scanning is now done by a third party firm and some bald degenerate mongoloid with tattoos told me they would just have to be scanned. However much I wanted to strangle this waste of oxygen, I didn't have a choice but to comply. Luckily the results don't seem to be affected. On the return trip, though, it wasn't a problem. Some friendly Italian customs officer made sure they weren't scanned, although he did test every film canister for drugs with a mass spectrometer, which took him like half an hour as I had a dozen with me.

tl;dr just ask to have them not scanned and if you're unlucky, everything <1600 shouldn't be affected unless you run it through multiple times. Keep in carry-on of course, as main luggage is scanned with much more powerful equipment.

Kiev 60, Ilford Delta 3200, Diafine.
>>
>>2931421
The answer here is that the hand baggage scanners are safe for all film types (even in tests putting them through over 30 times), but the more powerful x-ray machines used on checked luggage may damage the film. So just be sure not to check it.
>>
>>2931421
Someone posted some pics a few months ago with streaks all over them from some scanner.

I was surprised, because I've never had trouble myself having my film scanned - I've taken films up to ISO800 speed (always as carry-on of course)through through various airports in western Europe and Japan and never had an issue with the results of my slides or negatives.

I suppose if you go to some dilapidated african country where everything is state-of-the-art from 50 years ago you might come across some kind of RapeRöntgen 9000 monster? Otherwise idk, seems pretty safe to me.
>>
>>2931413
Yes, the thread is the same.
Practically any 50/2.8 will be excellent, however the easiest way to assure quality, as with everything photo related, is to buy first party japanese brands.
Nikon, Fuji, and also menelta made excellent multicoated, 6-element enlarger lenses.
>>
>>2931534
>menelta
>>
>>2931413
Oh, also, the standard thread is M39, not 38mm.
It is the same as LTM (Leica thread mount), so if you happen to have an old Summicron floating around you can use that too.

As far as other enlarger mounts go, I think Durst has a pretty fucked up system, that usually requires you to find various unobtainable items with gibberish 5-letter part numbers, if you want to change lenses.
>welp, into the trash they go

What's the best value in photo papers (incl. cost of developer, if you can) for a darkroom beginner? I'll be doing contact sheets, test strips, and perhaps even some prints to give away to people.

I mean, I could spend an hour browsing macodirect and doing the maths, but I've also got these people who've likely already figured all of this out, so... why not do both?
>>
>>2931561
The cheapest you can find, retard.
>>
>>2931562
As in, units of distance squared per unit of money? Is it actually that simple?
>>
>>2931413
The threading on most enlarger lenses is M39.
I would recomment El-Nikkor 50mm 2.8N. They sell on ebay for about 1/5 of Apo-Rodagons and the likes. I've used one for about a year now and to me the image they produce appears pretty much flawless.
>>
>>2931534
>>2931546
>>2931574

Thanks, I read into it some more and indeed it's M39, as apparently most enlarger lenses. I think I'm going for the EL Nikkor 50/2.8. It's 6 elements, right? I think I'm throwing away the Rode on cock, the thing is glued shut, I can't disassemble it for internal cleaning without absolutely demolishing it.
>>
>>2931564
Just buy a box of the smallest Fomaspeed you can find, fuck half of it up, decide if DR printing is for you, make some decent prints with the second half, be glad you only wasted like $20 and switch to Ilford. It has better filter sets anyway. It's pretty expensive though, so save your largest sheets for the absolute best photos

Does anybody have any experience with tri-X pushed to 1600? I'm kinda nervous that the grain would almost make it not usable. I'm also going to the like with Fuji 400h @ 200.

He literally opened every container, painstakingly swabbing the insides and outsides of the containers and the outsides of the actual film canisters with a q-tip, putting it in the machine, fucking up the receipt, fetching a roll of new receipt paper etc. etc. and that for I believe 12 films. I think it's because of Southern Europe, everything goes more slowly there. Well, at least they're more respectful of film photography, so I'm not complaining. Luckily I checked in well ahead of time.

Just shoot 400h at box speed. You get weird and unpredictable colors from overexposing.

Same goes for Ektar and Portra. Should always be shot at box speed.

nah, pushing it up a stop adds some nice contrast while keeping its signature gentle colors. Id probably agree with the others though. I dont like shooting outside of box speed.

Cheers. This is more or less what I ended up buying: some cheap papers to try things and fuck up, and some more expensive ones to try things and not fuck up quite as much.

What're the alternatives to darkroom printing for film photos, anyway? DSLR scanning and then hoping that a zomg-expensive inkjet printer has good enough blacks while not overly raping me over the price of ink? (ha ha, that last bit is ironic.)

Shit, halfway through a roll of 400H that I'm shooting at 200 because there's endless light where I live and my OM1 only shoots max 1/1000 and f/16 so I couldn't shoot it at box speed... guess we'll see how it goes.

Shutter speed is auto, and there's no zoom on the lens. And I just learned you can change the ISO even if the film is a certain speed. Therefore, "everything" is auto

Interesting, what do you think of the film?
>>
I have a bit of a problem with my Yashica-D

I accidentally broke off the screw that prevented the viewfinder from opening all the way. Currently using a makeshift fix of a broken off toothpick, but do you guys think I can find a replacement for that one specific part somewhere? Or maybe I could get it 3D printed somewhere?

Np. The alternative to DR printing (apart from the obvious digital camera option) is scanning and printing. I'm a bit ashamed to say that I made a print on inkjet photo paper with my consumer grade inkjet (Canon Pixma mx880) that looks quite alright, almost as good as many of my DR prints. It's b/w though, colour is a lot less likely to come out well. Also, life expectancy of a home printer print isn't great. Dark room printing *will* escalate into a very, well, 'large' hobby, with increasing amounts of equipment etc, as you'll be constantly looking for better prints and more options. Be sure you are ready for that.

If you don't make that much prints, you could consider saving your best negatives and have professional prints made of them by a photo lab. This will save money if you only do a few and you'll have the best results, depending on the skills/equipment of your photo lab of choice.

Yeah, I didn't really expect that darkroom printing would be any less of a spending spiral than photography in general. Spose it's a good idea to go straight for a Focomat V35 instead of some lesser enlarger, then, at least until the MF/LF bug(s) come along.

Aside from that (and fancy papers and fine-grain film developer and what-not, running costs) however, I don't see where the money would go. Framing? Matboard?

A bigger apartment to support a larger working area?
>>
>>2932584

Film was alright. 36 exposure which I enjoyed. I like the grain on a lot of the photos and some of the miscoloration on others. I have been fighting light leaks on my camera for a while but the ones that did turn out I liked.
>>
>>2932825
It doesn't have to be expensive. You can buy full darkroom sets from old people giving up the hobby or dying. The 'amateur' 35mm sets can be upgraded part by part according to your needs (new enlarger lens, MF/LF enlarger, colour printing), but you'll see that it adds up. Running paper/chemicals costs and the occasiinal splurge. Idk, I keep running into things that can be better or more, different kinds and sizes of paper, different kinds of developers, flasks, different sizes of bowls etc etc. Luckily I don't spend that much money on other things so it's not like I'm living in poverty because of it lol.

Although I am considering creating a dedicated datk room. My setup is now more mobile because I need the room for other things.

I'm thinking of making the pic related my new main now that my Memelta is dying. Got one in near mint condition together with a 3.5/50 Macro Hexanon and a 2.8/35 Hexanon, and I really like the way it handles, especially the heavy weight. I'm thinking of getting a 1.4/50 and a 3.5/135 to make a nice all round set. Is there anything I should know about the Konica AR system? Lenses to definitely get or avoid?

First roll using genuine Kodak Flexicolor LORR developer. Still waiting for the Kodak bleach and fix to arrive, so I used my year old unicolor blix. Took a bit of math to figure out how to mix, but it's looking to be cheap as fuck compared with unicolor.

You should know that the light meters on T3's always die, meaning they are no longer "Auto" reflexes.
But aside from that, they work fine without batteries.
The focusing screen isn't as good as other cameras.
The shutter feel/damping is much nicer than other cameras.
The 28mm isn't as good as an AiS Nikkor, but it's fine.
The 50/1.4 is very sharp at all apertures, but low contrast wide open.

EOS film body and a nifty fifty or something similar.

A prime 50 is a great start. Fast, standard focal length, manual controls. What else could you want? The EOS series offers automation like P/A/S modes that casuals use and also allow full control like a DSLR. A good first film body, so good I gave one to my bud for free.

absolute shit.

>>
>>2933634
I dunno about your specific situation, but I use a pleb life consumer EOS 300 with C/Y glass adapted to EOS/EF.
It meters fine as the meter draws from the information after the light enters the lens.
>>
>>2933599
Alright, thanks. Mine's meter is still fine but I don't think the camera has ever seen much action at all, it's good as new. I do miss the split prism on the focusing screen, but I can make do without. The shutter damping is one thing I noticed too, there's barely any vibration from the shutter and mirror slap at all. I guess that's also related to the heavy weight of the camera which I find preferable because it's easier to keep it steady at low speeds. Also, this thing has the most pleasing shutter sound I have heard from any camera so far.

I guess I'll grab the 1.4/50 as soon as I come across one, it's surprisingly affordable but I guess that's because of the 1.2 also being around for those willing to spend shekels for speed.
>>
>>2933669

Why would you even consider camera with microprism focus when you can get great bodies with split screen focus?

Spotmatic never again. Micro prism focusing is horrible.

If it allows release without lense you will be fine.

Because it appears the best alternative I have on hand among the pic related. The Minoltas are both ded (X-700's shutter is fucked, XG1 has a misplaced pressure plate), the Pentax has a faulty display (does not show selected shutter speed before actually firing it), the Praktica's slow speeds are inaccurate, the Fujica is all around beat up though functional so far, and the Zenit has a thousand and one problems. The rest are for meme use only.

Macro lenses trounce fast 50's anyway, just git gud.
But that Fuji would also be one I'd use. They're the nicest M42 cameras you can get, aside from maybe a new Bessaflex.
>>
>>2933683
It was the other alternative I had in mind, but it's in a pretty shitty shape and I don't know how long it will actually last. The frame counter glass is broken and has fallen inside, and the take-up spool is almost entirely broken, it can still grab the film, but only barely. Also I'm tired of the M42 and unscrewing the lenses when trying to focus.

Kodak Fixing Bath F-6
Odorless Bath for Films, Plates, and Papers
Water, about 50 Celsius (125° F.) 600 ml
Sodium Thiosulfate (Hypo) 240 g
Sodium Sulfite, desiccated 15 g
* Acetic Acid, 28% 48 ml
Kodalk 15 g
Potassium Alum 15 g
Cold water to make 1 liter

* To make approximately 28% acetic acid from glacial acetic acid, dilute three parts of glacial acetic acid with eight parts of water.
Dissolve chemicals in order given. To prevent sulfurization, mix the potassium alum separately in a small amount of hot water then add this last with rapid stirring.
This bath should be used in conjunction with a stop bath such as Kodak Stop Bath SB-1 or Kodak Stop Bath SB-1a, or an acid hardening bath such as Kodak Hardening Bath SB-3 to obtain the full useful hardening life. The hardening life (capacity) is equal to that of Kodak Fixing Bath F-5 provided an acid stop bath is used. With a water rinse the life is about one-half that of Kodak Fixing Bath F-5.
The hardener may also be mixed separately as a stock solution as detailed in Kodak Hardener F-6a.

Okay I found out that salt water cam be used as a really slow fix (4+ hours).

I would have tried to make hypo or an alternative with thiosulfate if I could get it. I'm onboard a ship so supplies are limited to say the least.

Oh yeah I should mention it.
Mix table salt into hot water as much as possible. Let cool and try to decant the solid salt out.

And the rest arent worth posting/was careless and I know what I did wrong with them too.

Tell me about mirror up. is it only needed for 1/60 and slower? That's what I hear from actual users and not shitposters about the mirror.

thats too thin of dof for that shot. also you misfocused, she could have moved, but the focus seems to be on her hand aka. ur fault.
>>
>>2934530
I see that it's on her hand but if she leaned back even slightly it would have taken her out of the focus I put her in.

You are correct on the shallow dof. Again, this was a test roll so now I at least know how crazy shallow it can get.

Question for you though, since lenses are are full aperture when you are focusing them, does that not show the DOF of the image wide open?

What do you rec for portraits? f4? Is there anything usable at full aperture for medium format?

These shots were all 105mm 2.4 btw. They were all shot below f4 most likely :[

>>2934528
>Tell me about mirror up. is it only needed for 1/60 and slower?

i wouldnt mirror up tripodless, doesnt make any sense. 1/60 is the slowest id go with that camera handheld. start lifting.
>>
>>2934534
Nigga I lift more than u. The reason I'm asking is because of the meme about the Pentax's mirror shake fucking up photos. It makes sense to mirror up without a tripod IF you are that concerned about mirror slap even at higher speeds like 1/125.

The mirror slap doesnt seem that much worse than a hasselblad truth be told, but I'd like second opinions before wasting more film.
>>
>>2934532

i made that mistake in a recent shooting too. underestimated the pants on the head retarded amount of bokeh of the 2.4.

apparently the viewfinder bokeh is not the "final one", the one you get in the negative is stronger.

full or near full aperture is cool for full body shots from far away of the subject. for typical close portraits id say f8 and up.

>>2934539
what are you going to do, compose, tell your subject to be still, hit mirror up, and then shoot into the dark? its a slow move, youll end up fucking your original composition or losing the models pose at its peak.

as said, i havent had problems with mirror slap, just dont go below 1/60. also lift more :^)

>what are you going to do, compose, tell your subject to be still, hit mirror up, and then shoot into the dark? its a slow move, youll end up fucking your original composition or losing the models pose at its peak.
I know what you're saying. I just did it IN CASE mirror slap was a thing that mattered. Having shot this roll, it doesn't seem like it anymore.

>also lift more :^)
o-ok...

Saved both just for reference. Here is another example of its nice colors.

If it was just a cunts hair sharper and less grainy it would be a film on par with ektar and portra. its without a doubt the best film for shooting stuff with friends, gf, and family.

Yeah, sorry if I wasn't clear - that was my point, Ultramax is a more well-rounded film that Ektar. Ektar has really punchy blues and reds, but the greens are a little more muted.

The sharp blues make for great skiing shots, though

(More XA, Ektar 100. XA has some weird lens flare, but that's the price of a fuckin' teeny F2.8 lens)

Yeah, let's be honest: he's a tool. But I don't take many portraits-style photos, and this is one of my better ones.

Here's an example of what I mean about muted greens with Ektar. Still love this photo, especially the sunlight catching the raindrops.
>>
>>2934596
Thats really cool you got the raindrops in the shot. I also see another quality of Ektar I dislike, which is "glowing" peak highlights. The sunlight side of those dudes and the trees just to the right of them have that glow to them I think is unattractive. Just makes them look out of focus and makes the photo feel "cheap"

The greens look muddled too. Its still a nice shot with good composition. And spongebob.

I haven't shot enough Portra to have a real informed opinion. I recall the color rendition being very even and natural, but fairly low on contrast overall - so very sensitive to lighting conditions; not film that was friendly for just casually wandering around with. I mostly stick to Ektar and Ultramax for color, and Tri-X for B&W.

(LA at night with the XA and some Tri-X)

Yeah, Ektar has good contrast, but it *will* blow out the highlights. I'm ok with it, I was just trying to capture good memories on a trip - I'm no pro. And yes, while I love this photo, it's a textbook example of Ektar's shortcomings with green.

It's a great emulsion. It's like slide-lite, lots of colour and vibrance but it won't fuck your shit up. Dynamic range is a little smaller than some other colour negative films, so you'll need to be more accurate with your metering and exposing.

I've had some really good luck with Tri-X; if you don't like the grain there's other B&W to shoot with. They key is to take advantage of its high contrast.

Got two of them. Get the Signal Nettar if possible, especially if you're absent minded. They're an affordable way to try your hand at MF, fun to use if you're tired of automation holding your hand, and surprisingly pocketable when folded. It also sends old people into nostalgia autism. My main gripe is the very limited selection of shutter speeds with the Vario shutter (1/25, 1/75, 1/200).

Where are people buying film cameras these days?


I bought a M2 from keh like 4 years ago, and stopped looking for cameras ever since.
Some of my friends are looking for cameras now though and the KEH selection is kind of garbage now compared to 4 years ago.
I never liked buying from ebay, so i try to avoid it.
Did people move on to different websites now?

How much do those cameras cost, non ripoff price? The limited ss range sounds like a pain in the dick tho for the results

Hey guys, got two expired films from 2011. I'm an amateur, I'm using a Canon AE-1 which my father gave me(it was his main during he was at uni)

Can I shoot stuff with it, I can't find anything about expired films on my native language.

Im going back to shoot film again because i prefer to shoot on film now plus im planning to develop my own film and hopefully when im ready would move to medium or large format and develop everything on my own.. But as of now im just gonna process it at a lab and get use to shooting film again but the lab scans are ridiculously overpriced.. so im planning to get a scanner if it gets out of hand in term of budget.

are there any significant difference between Nikon CoolScan 9000 ED and 8000 ? the 8000 is much affordable on ebay.. or should i probably just get one of those plustek or pacific image scanners because its cheaper?

another cheaper alternative for me is the Epson V600 which is a flat bed scanner..

anyone can advice me?
>>
>>2935329
What sort of things are you going to be using it for?

If you're just want web scans and good quality small prints the Plusteks will be good. I own one and am very happy with the quality for the price.

>>2934600
this was scanned with the plustek

If you're planning on graduating to larger film formats then a flatbed is a better idea. For 35mm the flatbed will be marginally worse quality than the Plustek, but you'll be able to scan pretty much any film format under the sun.

If you want crazy high quality scans and want to print big from 35mm only then the Canoscans and Nikon CoolScans are pretty good. Expensive but you get what you pay for.

If you develop yourself or value speed as well as good quality, the Kodak Pakon F135+ are great. They can scan a whole uncut roll in about 5 minutes and the quality is still really great.

Happy to answer more questions if you've got them
>>
>>2935334

which model from plustek btw?
>>
>>2935337
I have the 8100, which is the same image quality as the 8200ai and 8200se just without the infrared dust removal.

the Plustek 7xxx scanners are all just as good, they just don't include the newer software. This is not a big deal, because you won't even use the software bundled with the scanner. Vuescan is the best scanner software bar none
>>
>>2935341

How about scanning Xpan images on these scanners?
>>
>>2935349
Xpan won't work on the Plustek since the scanner head covers the traditional 24x36mm area.

For X-Pan I'd imagine your only option would be a flatbed or a really high end scanner. The X-Pan is one of the few cameras that ever shot in that format so no scanners are set up for it
>>
>>2935352

aw snap. Im trying not to go for flatbeds.. theyre too big and dust can easily fall on the glass panel and i need to dust it off all the time.I know Coolscan 8000 can do 120 pano just need the mask for the 135 pano.. I heard the plustek 135 can do pano but its not highly rated for their scans.
>>
>>2934610
Rodinal is veey grainy (zero solvent action) and usually you lose some speed. Also, it builds up contrast fast.

That's its nature when used normally, and not in special circumstances like stand (and yes stand is not normal dev, inb4 hate incoming).

Try TriX in XTol, or even D76 and you'play be surprised.

Has anyone shot Cinestill 800 before?
I'm going to Hong Kong and was going to buy some as where I live doesn't have much to see at night, assuming this film would be good for HK's LED nightlife.
How is it shot at ISO 1600?
Or would you recommend something else shot at ISO 1000+?

I have two packs of it, but haven't used much of it. Haven't been able to make my kitchen into a darkroom to load and process it all summer since the nights have been too bright, and now the light is getting low for the ISO 6 or 3 I will be shooting it at. But I'll try to shot more of it the following months.
Couldn't find any real scans of negs or contact prints, only had a partial scan on this computer, that I've posted before.

I've shot a few rolls, but haven't tried pushing it yet.
Unless you plan to push I'd shoot it at 640 or even 400 unless you really really like grain.
Pic related is shot at 640.

Superia 1600 is nice if shot at about 1200, but it's also super grainy.

Xpan/135 pano can be a bit of a pain to scan in traditional dedicated scanners.

You can kinda do it in scanners that do 120 but you're usually still cropping.
The reason for it is that the Xpan negative is 65x24mm while 120 cameras are usually 56mm wide/tall. If you can get a dedicated scanner that does 6x7 then you're good to go, but you will have to cut every negative.
As for 135 dedicated scanners, you can do it by stitching and scanning two areas. Keep your settings consistent and buy a 2nd frame to cut the dividers on.

If you can DSLR scan, then this is by far the simplest/highest quality method. Either shoot in one frame or stitch across two.

Most people, even myself just use a shatbed for convenience.

Source: Pano cuck with 135 backs and an Xpan

>>2935360
Be very careful about the mask for 135 pano if you are going xpan. It NEEDS to be 65x24mm. Other pano backs for medium format at the time shot 56x24mm.

The Fuji GW690 doesn't have a respool option, I believe. I also do not have a darkroom, so I cant respool that way either haha.

Cool, Antonio told me it would be finished on Saturday, but if you develop it tomorrow that would be cool.

I'm btw going to be investing in an 8x10 again, and some velvia 50. You will be able to see the slides in person as you're more than likely to develop them. I'm excited as fuck.

This, or just use a dark bathroom or something if it's possible. Just remember to do it before winding past frame 8, as the backing paper and transparency are not taped together on the end of the roll, only at the beginning.
And no way am I touching any 8x10 slides for a long time, I'm not even feeling confident doing 4x5 for clients yet, it's much more finicky than 35mm and 120.
I'll try and get a look of them after dev tho.

It's cool that you shoot a GW690 too, it's probably my favorite camera that I own. Haven't shot much chrome in it, but I want to do it more.

Dude, get a tap measure and work it out.
The lense is fixed, that means that the calibration of its focus scale is also fixed.
Set it to 3 metres, measure out a fencepost 3 metres away, look through the viewfinder.
If the images line up, your RF is fine.
If they don't line up, just lrn to scale focus/git gud.

So....new camera arrived in the mail tonight. Rushed out to shoot a test roll. The last 2 weeks were clear skies. On new camera night, of course, it was complete overcast and spitting rain. No matter, shot a test roll anyway. I have now joined the square format club and the Ricoh club. 1958 Diacord L. Meter works well. Lens is sharp. No light leaks. Shutter seems fine. On all 12 snapshits, I nailed focus. I'm quite pleased with my purchase.

Indeed. I've had an rb67 for a couple of years, and I won't lie....it's weight caused me to leave it in the camera bag far too often. I think I'll be carrying this little Ricoh around far more often. I mean, damn...it's just this little camera hanging at the waist, with a few rolls of 120 in the pocket and nothing else. I should have bagged a tlr a long time ago.

Also, just noticed that the pic I posted gained alot of contrast between Capture One and 4chan...will have to sort that out.

ASA was (emphasis on was) an industrial standard that stopped being used as generic film speed in the early 80s. ASA's uses (infrequent as they may be) now are different from ISO and to use them interchangeably is just to show your ignorance.

How would one shoot ISO 400 film at night without a tripod?
My lens goes up to f1.8 which isn't all that bright, and it's an olympus OM1 so there's a certain amount of slapback when the shot is taken.
>>
>>2936094
with a flash
>>
>>2936096
well I'm going for these kinds of shots, so a flash isn't relevant
I suppose just find a lot of incandescent light
>>
>>2936098
if I was you I'd meter for the midpoint

dont want to meter for the bright lights and crush everything or meter for the background and blow everything out
>>
>>2936098

just by eye, that shit, with 400 iso needs f3.5 and at least 2 seconds exposure. that way you get an over exposed photo that you can bring down to look real good with actual information on the shadows.

man up and tripod the shot, faggot.

If you find something to brace the camera against (table, desk, lamp post, fence, wall) you can do longer exposures without camera shake.
Pic related was one second on ISO 200 film.

it will be mainly shot in the street
same guy you spoke to yesterday, I'm getting some cinestill 800 but going to shoot it at 400 to reduce grain a little.
>>
>>2936107
If you're in Japan just buy some Natura 1600. Otherwise you're gunna need a tripod.
>>
>>2936111
Read that shot at even ISO 1000 it's grainy as fuck.
I need something that works well with hong kongs night city vibes.

>>2936107

any. set the shot and fill it with light, thats my advice. post results.
>>
>>2936118
Did you even think before you replied?
Of course tripod choice has a huge effect on how easy it will be to shoot in portrait.
I have a MeFoto Backpacker tripod, and even though it has a ball head mount and I'm super happy with it in most other aspects, it's not ideal for shooting portrait, as it only has a level mounted in the landscape orientation.
>>
>>2930186

>>
>>2936128
recommend anything for portrait then?
my fuji ga645 shoots natively in portrait so it's fine, however the olympus om1 does not.

If you're using a leaf shutter you can also expect to shoot at much slower speeds before you need a tripod.

Did you develop that Velvia 50 today? If so I'll come by tomorrow and pick it up :)
>>
I haven't shot much colour film, just a few rolls. I want to get some more since i'm gonna get some C41 processing chemicals. Any recommendations for colour film? I was thinking of picking up some portra 400 and ektar 100 but i'm not sure if its worth shelling out more for film if cheap film like kodak colorplus is a third of the price.

>>
>>2936152
Well, it depends on what you're shooting and why you're shooting it and what you want to achieve.

Films like Portra 400 and Ektar 100 are night and day.
>>
>>2936157
I'm not shooting anything specific at the moment, still seeing what looks good and what doesn't.
So was thinking I could get some 400 speed film which i can push higher when its darker and then have some 100 speed film for when it's sunny.

Although might take some pictures in a forest close to me and some darker shots when streetlights are on if i push the 400 speed film to 1600.

But yeah I haven't tried too many films so was thinking of just testing a bunch.
>>
>>2936163
Portra 400 can be shot between 50-3200 EI, probably even further either direction. It's the best for all situations imo

Cool, will definitely pick some up.

Do you know how portra 160 compares to 400 when shooting at lower speeds? Reason i ask is because I can get 160 cheaper so if i'm shooting at faster speeds anyway then i can pickup some portra 160 too.

It's godly. You should try it.
>>
>>2936256
Do some searching on APUG and find the folks the actually PROPER comparison testing of stand vs. normal. Test after comparison test done with proper densitometers shows that there is very little benefit to stand developing and very real possibilities of fucking up your film (bromide drag and such). Anyone that throws up a pic and tells you it was stand developed and its godly, does not have a side by side with an identical negative developed by standard procedure. If you want to experiment with a roll of snapshits, by all means give it a try. But if you think you have keepers on the roll, do yourself a favor and develop by manufacturers recommendation.

I've no idea about tripods, sorry.

>>2936151
That's true, but since he's shooting 35mm I doubt he has a leaf shutter.
It was already developed when I came into work today. Didn't sneak a look at it, but I asked about it and apparently you fucked 6 out of 8 shots, but the 2 shot that came out were supposedly well exposed. Sorry.

>>2936357
If you weren't so mad you'd see I didn't give a suggestion for a tripod, I only stated that it would matter which tripod he did get.
Like I said, I'm super happy with mine, but it's not very good for shooting in portrait orientation, so if I did that a lot I'd want to make sure whatever tripod I got was well suited for it.
Maybe you should get out more, you don't sound very happy.
Nice picture tho.

There's several. First, lazymodo; no need to watch over a dev tank for six to fifteen minutes and give it exactly four turns over ten seconds every minute on the dot. Second, in theory stand dev permits variable ISO over a single roll while yielding about equal density. Third, extended semi-stand development (like, two hours or more) makes it possible to expose tri-x at 1600 or 3200 while getting usable negs, which exibit really nice texture in things like denim, leather, or lace. Fourth, they say that stand development makes for a great big adjacency ("edge") effect, which builds haloes around dark subjects (because the developer migrates off where it's not being consumed). Fifth, 1+100 Rodinal semi-stand for one hour tends to develop any and all black and white films regardless of what their recommended dev times are, which is pretty neat and almost like a cheat code that newbies can use and mostly not fuck up badly. (but don't try this with Fomapan 400; that stuff really needs two hours in this soup.)

As for risks, bromide drag can be mitigated by using a semi-stand method instead, for example by giving the tank two gentle turns at every 30-minute mark. This is recommended for longer developments as well.

It's no meme, is what. But it's also not "real" development in HC-110 or D76 or Microphen. Each of these has their own properties, but for a while I was a halo effect junkie. Go figure, try things out, see what you like.
>>
>>2937097
Can you show examples of that effect?
>>
>>2937097
why do I only ever hear doing stand-dev with Rodinal? what's special about it? I've used it for standard dev and all I can tell is that its sharp and super fucking grainy
>>
>>2937825
It's good for lazy people.
Or y'know you could read the post or try it yourself.

The real reason Rodinal is so popular is that it's more likely to outlive you.
>>
>>2937828
Do you store it in the fridge or just some cool dark place ?
