This is the Film General Thread, aka FGT.
This is the thread where you can post your film snapshits without flushing them down the Recent Photo Toilet.
>just posting in the FGT doesn't make you gay, unless you shoot in-date pro films that have been cold stored
It is ok to ask about film gear in this thread.

Do you mean it tries winding for awhile, stops, and then flashes E on the screen? Is this your first time using the camera or have you loaded film into it before no problem? Make sure it catches into the film advance prior to shutting the door.

What film is it? I dunno if it can do non-FF coded film in case that's what you're using.

how do you calculate dilution? like 1+1 or 1+4? Are there any app to do this? Im so bad at math.
>>
>>2936832
Don't pursue photography. There might be numbers involved.

>like 1+1

Not everyone had/enjoyed chemistry at school and it's simple to explain but with the examples you gave you are either trolling or a hopeless case.
>>
>>2936832

1+1 = 1 part undiluted developer(or whatever you are mixing) and 1 part water

so say you need 500ml to cover your roll of film in your tank, (should say how much ml you need for the tank), then you do 500ml / 2 and get 250ml undiluted developer and 250ml water.

with 1+4 it works the same, so if you need 500ml divide that by 5 parts (1+4) and you get 100ml, so 100ml developer and 400ml water.

most of the time it should say on the bottle how to prepare it.

First roll devloped.

Russian scale focusing plastic cheap piece of crap Camera.

Had a hard time getting the rewind to work so I opened it under two duvets with the lights off.

Is it a light leak in the camera ? Or do you guys think it's from the opening ?

Apart from that I was quite surprised at how sharp some of the pictures came out.

It was kodax iso 200 pharmacy crap.

Local shops sells 2 rolls of it with 35 exposures for €2.50.

what camera you using it for ?

you in ireland by any chance i saw one going for that on deals and was almost tempted to buy another so i dont have to change lens for my film camera.

what you people think of the fed 4 ?

i just got it shot a roll, fucked up the rewinding process, you have to turn the release collar i just found out.

it feels amazing and pretty enjoyable to use at the very least.

Hi former colony. Hope you're enjoying some sweet discrimination passed down from daddy with prices of film. Unless you're abo, in which case Australia belongs to the british.

>>2936942
Looks like a leak on the back, the pressure plate should hold it in place. If the top parts are out of focus too then it could be that. Kind of hard to tell with an Irish scan though.
>>2937010
>usually shoot in average conditions
>hate loading ISO 100 for casual shooting because of this
If you can spot meter, I would use that or learn where the meter usually covers. Chances are you'll be fine unless it's a very contrasty scene though. My xpan meter can usually guess it about right 9 times out of 10.

That's generally how lenses work m80, you stop em down a little and they're usually at their sharpest.

Lol

I doubt they would though because digshital always becomes outdated every year when a new digshital camera comes out, compared to film cameras where a camera from 1950 gets better results than a digital camera from 2016

Also using Fuji CA135 cause it was cheap. Are those $30 canisters actually a good replacement for a darkroom? Around here it's like $5 to get a single roll developed.
>>
>>2937749
Use it in manual and expose according to the guide number. I've used the A11 on my XA like that when shooting 800 speed film or when I want to use a different aperture.

The XA flash is something I feel Maitani dropped the ball with. It ruins the ergonomics and looks ugly.

Alright so I got a few rolls of Hungarian 35mm forte film (50 ISO), expired in 1992 that I shot with an auto exposure compact film. My question is: How do I develop this? I can't find any info on the times or anything online so I'm just gonna aim for Ilford 50 as a measurement. However, since the film expired almost 25 years ago, I am thinking that I will need longer developer times, is that correct?

Try cleaning the metal contacts in the battery bay. Give them a good scrub with a Q-tip or something.

Opinions on the Kiev 60? Got to try one when I was shooting the shit with a guy about MF gear and I mentioned I'm GASsing for a Pentacks 6x7. He brought out a Kiev 60 with an eye level WF and said that he had had the Pentax but it was a boring camera, and this Kiev with Zeiss Jenas had served him a lot better. It felt pretty good in the hand so now I'm curious.
>>
>>2938060
Yeah rule of thumb is it looses about half its iso sensitivity after a couple of years.

Unless it was refrigerated it might be a goner and the Hungarians were a soviet bloc country In the 80's so I say the film is about the same quality as Soviet film. Witch wasn't great

Sorry I don't know too much about your problem be worth a shot anyway
>>
>>2938162

finder is bright. more prone to failure than other cameras (the slavic factor)
>>
>>2938141
You messed up with film and video threads.
>>
>>2938162
Kievs are the Trabant of medium format. That's to say: you'd best learn to repair them yourself, which is nontrivial to say the least. Things like brass gears becoming stripped and needing replacement.

Also, Kievs smell. Like a lot. And there's light leaks out the arse, which is par for the course for any old MF camera, but still super aggravating.

If at all possible, go for a Bronica S series with the steel gears. Those will both last, and likely be in a working order when you lay your mitts on 'em.

I'm hopefully going to shoot some paid portraits soon with my rz67. What price would be a good jumping off point? I'm thinking of $10 for a print and $5 for a scan. Is there any poses I should look into for people wearing full suits of plate armor?

what the fuck. film portraits should be more expensive than rabal tier portraits. and rabal ones are way expensive than what you plan to charge.

That doesn't sound too bad actually. I already have experience with FSU cameras so I know they can be temperamental, and that quality varies by how much vodka had been consumed when the camera was made.

A Bronica SQA would be cool but knowing how I shoot it'd probably be collecting dust in a month.

I dont know how the camera takes into account the power of the flash. If im using the flash set to 400 but the meter set at 1600 im not sure how that would affect the exposure.

I suppose i'd have to know whether the flash setting overrides the meter. Probably not, and again i think its going to be a case of trial and error.

Leeches, lots of leeches. 4 broke the skin, buy I probably pulled 30-40 off me in total. Never seen shit like that before...

Shot that roll of Lucky SHD100 on the Stylus tho. Moody and foggy Japanese forests on bw should look neato.
>>
>>2938506
Also, help with figuring out dev times for Lucky SHD100 and Tri-X in Fuji Microfine? Cant find dev times anywhere. Is this possible to look up dev times for a more common developer thats chemically similar to Microfine and make a decent guesstimation about ratios and dev times?
>>
>>2938506
>Lucky SHD100

is that a good film? comparable to what? worse or better than foma or shanghai?

>>2938321
I've also got plenty of experience with FSU gear, but nothing, _nothing_ could prepare me for the SMELL. It's like they made the glue that holds the leatherette in place out of cabbage, and so every Kiev owner is now haunted by ghosts of pureed cabbage concentrate of the nineteen-seventies.

Consider that this is gear that you put your face up to, to use the waist-level finder, for proper focusing. The smell will linger up your nose for days after you've put the camera away. It's not moth balls, it's not grease, it's not oil, it's something infinitely more sinister.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Nice. What developer did you use? I wanted to try Rodinal 1 + 100 stand development because I'm a faggot hipster and love making things hard on myself.

I have like three rolls of the stuff but the local labs don't develop black and white film.

Need halp, my staple lab is going to discontinue E-6 and I want to expend my stockpile before that happens. I'm going to head out for some golden hour goodness this week, what I have is Velvia and Provia 16 years past the expiration date. Stored in room temperature at a photo studio. I have no experience in expired slide film, how should I go about it? Overexpose by several stops like with negatives or just roll with the box speed and pray to the frog god?
>>
>>2938923
I'd be wary of overexposing by more than a stop, since slide film doesn't have the same highlight latitude as negative film. Best to try a test roll first
>>
>>2938923

ive shot provia from 2001 and it was tip fucking top, they take age well. shoot it at box speed.
>>
>>2938991
>>2938993
Thanks. I just shot the first one with one step overexposure, I'll do the next at box speed for comparison.
>>
>>2939007
>one step overexposure

too much. develop for asa 200-150 then.

I've learned a lot by reading and chatting in /fgt/ so thank you guys and gals.

In case anyone owns/has owned half-frame film cameras, which do you think would be a versatile and affordable choice as a side-carry? What film do you usually shoot through them?

Assuming you mean a patterson tank? You still need to load the film on the reel in total darkness. Whether you get that from sealing off a room or buying a changing bag is your guess. If you bought all the equipment and chemicals new, that would be ~80$, not to mention getting a scanning solution together if you don't already have one. You can weigh the cost.

Kodachrome - you can sometimes find rolls for sale on eBay, and nothing beats those colours.

For me, I always use HP5 pushed up to 1600 in low light or stick with tripod and FP4/PanF for medium format.

I either go really slow or fast and not in between, but when I have used HP5@400 I always got good results.

For slow bw, Acros is the best imo.

For color negative give Ektar, Portra, and 400H a try.

For slide try Provia 100F.

For fun go on eBay and buy a lot of random film. Lots of great films out there that are no longer produced but fantastic to shoot (e100vs, Portra VC, Portra NC, neopan 400, Astia 100F, etc.)

I definitely want to try porta 160. I love the 35mm portra so I'm looking forward to 120. I might give provia 100f a shot too. I'm shooting my first roll of provia right now in 35mm to see how I like it.

>which do you think would be a versatile and affordable choice as a side-carry?

the canon ee17. has Tv and full manual. 1.7 lens. godly. worth every shekel.

dont bother with the cheaper demis they have selenium meters most probably dilapidated and even dead at this point, and no full manual.

>>2939555
This is true. I don't, really. I've never tried the zone system before this, and if you're talking about the scanning, post-processing is something I don't even know the basics of. I'd like to learn.
>>
>>2939745
You need to learn basic post processing as scanned black and white negs are always lifeless as the scanner software tries to not clip any blacks or whites. You need to sort the contrast out after

Sounds like an excellent choice but I am not sure it'd be easy to find one in good condition in Europe. I will look for one though now, it looks sexy af plus that lens. I do know about the selenium meters that's why I wanted to hear opinions on which would be the best choice or choices.

Buying single rolls is really not that financially great once you factor in shipping and potential savings from buying pro-packs. In addition to ebay, some good sites that sell fresh film include:
Bhphotovideo.com
Freestylephoto.biz

Amazon.com

Remember the thread about Acros 100 being discontinued in 35mm format? I went to my usual shop today to buy some film and they told me they are out of stock of Acros 100. Some online shops still have it - for literally twice the usual price.

Hey guys, just found this little dude in a charity shop going for £20. This is my first film camera and was wondering if there is anything I should do before I go out and take some snaps. The only thing I can see wrong with it is a slight crack in the top of the flash housing.
>>
>>2940678
i wouldnt of bothered to get it anon

its baerly worth 20 quid.

plastic af slr from the early 2000's i bet.

clean the mirror with a mircofibre cloth and compressed air if you have it.

apart from that i bet it would work grand.
>>
>>2940669
120 and sheet film seems to be still available everywhere, although the question is how much longer they're gonna keep it that way if it really turns out that they have stopped the production of 135.
>>
>>2940679
Thanks for the quick reply, yeah the mirror looks spotless from what I can tell but I'll double check it. Yeah but as a student I got too much money laying about, currently saving for a dslr, thought I would try film in the meantime.

Just got some fresh batteries, but the stores around here are out of 35mm film so gonna hopefully grab some at uni tomorrow. Just gotta get used to these buttons and whatever the hell they are doing. Anyone got a crib sheet or maybe an instruction manual for this camera? Also as it is an A mount lens are there any other interesting lenses to put on this?
>>
>>2940366
what lens has yuck pentagonal bokeh
>>
>>2940833
Most Hasselblad lenses, for one.
>>
>>2940786
Here's the instructions for the first roll:
Open rear door, drop in roll of film, stretch film leader to red dot, close door, turn power on, press "P" button, aim, compose, and press shutter button. Get roll developed. If the roll comes out ok, download the manual to learn about other advanced/manual controls.

The lower end maxxum bodies didn't stand the test of time very well if stored poorly. If you like the Maxxum cameras, save up for a Maxxum/Dynax 7. It is godly.

And yes, Maxxums take a-mount lenses. All a-mount lenses will fit, but only the screw drive lenses will be able to focus. The exception being the Maxxum 5, 7, and some 9's, can drive the newer style lenses.
>>
>>2940664
Probably not. Sometimes stocks run low in areas. You'll notice the price of Portra/Tri-X rises steeply in Europe sometimes only for the price to fall back down to normal after a couple of months when stocks have been replenished.

Seemingly the camera is always on whilst the batteries are in. After opening and closing the door it auto reels the film, which makes sense as the only time you'd open it up would be to change film.

Thank you for the information about the lenses. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to use the autofocus on any other lenses but the one it came with, which I am fine with as I plan on doing portraits and the sort and get down with manual controls.

Most earlier canon EF glass too, I think. I like the 50/1.8, 24/2.8, 28/2.8, 35/2. Often the choice will hinge on how much mechanical effort the engineers want to devote to stopping down the lense, more than anything else.

Do you mean bulk roll film ?
>>
>>2940861
The upper lcd stays on always. The info in the viewfinder should only be on with the power switched on. It will load the film with the power off.
>>
>>2940941
Let's see, my Maxxum has a window in the back to see the roll, and the frame counter doesnt change when firing shutter. All of my manual 35mm's the rewind knob spins when winding film, plus you can feel a difference in winding resistance. RB67 will wind without stopping without film loaded, plus winding resistance feel. 4x5, I've double exposed, but never forgot to load the holders. Sorry anon, never experienced this.
>>
>>2940948
I just mean a regular roll of film.
>>
>>2940941
Yes.

Shot a roll of 120 tri-x to find out there was no film and it was only backing paper. Contacted Kodak and they fucking ignored me completely.
>>
>>2940957
In all honesty, I should've known because the rewind knob on mine spins too. But for some reason I was afraid of opening it and there being film in there. I feel so duuuumbbb
>>
>>2940962
Learn to spin rewind knob clockwise when in doubt. If it gets tight=film loaded. If it spins free=film not loaded. Also, get a minolta....they have a red flag that shows when the film is properly loaded.

Total parts divided by volume of tank. So if it's 1:4 that's five total parts, divided by 300ml is 60ml, so each part is worth 60ml. So your ratio 1:4 is 60:240.

If you're struggling massive dev chart will do the maths for you, but it's worth learning to do on your own. http://www.digitaltruth.com/devchart.php?doc=volmix

I have an A1, it's my go to camera for testing new films/developers because being electronic it's very consistent, and the 50mm f1.8 is surprisingly sharp. If you already have a 550D though look into some of the modern mount film EOS cameras so you can use the same lenses/accessories (unless you're specifically wanting something older).

I'm putting in another upvote for Ultramax. Damn I'm loving this film. Cheap as film gets, dries perfectly flat, sharp, I'm happy with the colors, easy to invert. Yes it has grain, but equal if not less grain than fuji200. What's not to like??

9usd for how many rolls? If you're talking about a 3-pack, that's a killer price. 3 packs are $20usd from Yodobashi in Japan.

Anyone have any experience with the Hanimex 35 MicroFlash? Just picked one up for $4. Lens was gross so tore it apart and cleaned it. Shutter fires fine, aperture works fine, flash works fine.

Missing the rewind knob but no biggie since you can just pry it up. Light seals are absolutely fucked but that's easily fixable. The major issue is that the rewind switch doesn't seem to work so you can't rewind the film. I'd love some insight on this very weird camera if anyone has any

Ok guys. I have 400$. What's the best scanner in this range, is it pic related?
>>
>>2942786
In thinking of getting one of the Plustek 8000 range. They're meant to be the best if you're only doing 35mm.

Flatbeds add more versatile as you can also do 120/large format but quality isn't as good for 35mm.
>>
>>2942786
>>2942796

I sold off my 8100 for an XA and haven't looked back. They're both acceptable scanners but the latter offers slightly better resolution and can save you heaps of time. Filmscanner.info pretty much sums up my experience under their filmscanner tests page. (Look for "Reflecta RPS 10M" for results on the XA)

>>2942972
Dunno yet, haven't had a chance to look at the negs yet since they are still wet. It looks nice from a distance, especially considering I took an educated guess on its developing time in Fuji Microfine.

3 rolls of Acros and that roll of Lucky drying now.

how much money do you guys save from developing and scanning your own film? Also will it save even more money with bulk loading films?

I bought enough developer to develop 16 rolls of film. It was cheaper than getting 1 roll developed at a lab. To break down my costs since I just bought dev gear:

>$60 for a tank and 2 reels
>$10 for bucket, measuring cup, thermometer
>$10 for bottle of fixer that should last 30+ rolls
>$8 for powder developer that can developer 16 rolls

If I stick with this dev/fixer combo it will cost me $30 to develop ~30 rolls of black and white film.

Scanning yourself may be even more cost effective, since the majority of labs seem to charge $10+/roll for pretty shittastic scans.
>>
>>2942981
Scanning is 7€ up here. So if a scanner costs about 250€, it takes about 36 rolls to pay for itself. For me that happened earlier this year. Also, output is hirez TIFFs or w/e on your RAID array, instead of generically post-processed JPEGs on a CD.

Development is another 7€/roll regardless of format and chemistry, and for large format it's 3€/sheet. For black and white with HC-110 dil. B (~10ml/roll) you get 100 rolls out of a one-liter bottle which costs about 30€ from maco, so it's 0.30€/roll to dev. Fixer is a bit more expensive per roll esp. given that 1+4 rapid fixer spoils in 3-4 months, but we can still count about a 6€ savings. For C-41 it's exactly 0.54€ per roll (compard digibase kit, 5l = 100 rolls for 53-ish yurobucks). Also, you can play funny development games like push/pull development, semi-stand, and what-not; and it's quicker and a fun part of the hobby. This pays for itself slower, in terms of euro per roll, than scanning.

Bulk rolling is the easiest question. Generally cheap film costs under 3€/roll of 36, and expensive film costs around 4€/roll of 36, in bulk, bought 30m (~18 rolls) at a time. This makes for a savings of 2-3€/roll, so with a daylight loader costing up to 120€ (or next to nothing if bought used), this is the slowest thing to pay for itself.

Each of these steps gives you more control, and more stuff to do. So for /fgt/, except mf and lf people, each step is almost a necessity even if it weren't also a cost savings.

Over simplified, arrogant (it's 2016!) and blatantly wrong on some parts but he is correct that processing and exposing film for scanning and traditional printing are two different animals.
As for zone system, he's simply much more interested in hard contrast, and you could modify how you consider the zones. With film it's always better to overexpose a little if anything.
>>
>>2943012
B&W or C41? Either way, just go for it. When I started out with film developing (C41), I only messed up 1 out of 8 rolls and that was as a total beginner. With B&W it's even harder to fuck up unless you somehow open the tank before the film finished developing or somethin

loadsa money.
I'd rather process my own B/W even with Rodinal than give it to a lab. Every B/W roll I ever had processed by someone else always came back worse than I could do myself. Though I still get 35mm C-41 processed at ASDA when I can be bothered to get it in colour.

While the scanners where a high entry cost, It pays off in the long run to be able to scan my own stuff. There's no issues with weird crops or auto settings when you do it yourself. I also don't have to pay ridiculous rates to get xpan/pano/120 scans.

I mostly shoot Delta 400, so bulk loading works for me, I can get 30.5M for less than I can get roll packs. It also gives me the flexibility to load less frames.

Did you develop it yourself or ship it out?

I had it developped for me. Maybe they were exposed terribly because my lightmeter didnt work and the guy tried his best to save those photos, well I dont know.

I am shooting 2nd roll of Kodak with working lightmeter, maybe there will be a difference.
I shot a roll of fomapan 200 as well but they didnt develop b&w.
