Really nice, what stock/lens are you using?

I have a 300mm f2 lens I want to mount on an 8x10 but have no way of using a shutter. The lens has huge coverage and I know the images are going to be soft as fuck but I want to try it anyways. To get around not having a shutter I was thinking of just lens capping it on a slow stock and hoping I don't blow it out during development. I'm also going to try it with some direct positive paper. Any other ideas for what to do with the lens?

Hey gents what's a good bulk B&W film?

I'm split between ultrafine extreme, arista edu 200 speed, or picking up two bulk rolls 20+ year expired off of eBay (trix 400 and a internegative bw). Heavily leaning towards the Lomo tier ebay because I like a good challenge.

does pushed c200 look good? does it succ?

I want to get my girlfriend a new film camera as hers has light leaks. Currently she's shooting with a Pentax k1000 I think, would like to get her something nicer or just different but preferably spend under €100. Any ideas? Bare in mind I know very little about film.

>>2950041
Olympus OM1/2? They are more compact with smaller lenses, v comfy to handle, got some additional features, and are generally more pro level cameras. If she got lenses for the K1000 and wants to stay w Pentax I'd go with an MX

>>2950004
Not that guy, but 135 and 120 are around 500-900 yen per roll, not including prints. B&W and E6 are about the same. Turn-around for B&W and E6 is around 24-48 hours in Tokyo, but rush is available.

>>2949966
Have you ever taken an actual photograph or do you just sperg about chemicals and old film stock all the time?

>>2950083
Cool, thanks. I can do it cheaper myself then, but might get some devved there to save me the trouble.

Are the Konica Autoreflex bodies any good?
I was thinking of starting out with an Autoreflex A and a 50mm f1.7 konica lens.
Also should i get a film developing kit or can you jury rig a developing tank?

>>2949829
Here is mine... used a pentax 67.. 120mm.. not good at it, hope u guys dont bash me with bad feedback :P

>>2949993
In Europe, RPX400 at 30.5m a pop comes out to about two rolls per 5€. It's a good film, somewhat like HP5+ and Tri-X, pushes well enough to 1600 in HC-110 and 3200 in Microphen. Basically, that's what I'm shooting now that the dark season is upon us.

Owakudani, Japan.

Tried using some Ektar 100 on a holiday trip rather than the Fuji Superia 400 I normally use.

Went a little weird. The better the light, the bluer the picture, to the point where I'm wondering if the processor bolloxed it up. Maybe the exposure got fucked,

Still. Sometimes it's almost an improvement.

I would say they're all worthless snapshits?
Hot tip mate, your fucking public lawn and the normies who frequent it are not compelling photographic subjects.
I don't know if you're one of those happy-clapping community-spirit nufties who volunteers to run over-60's zumba classes and thinks that anything with "local people getting together" is great and wonderful.
But that's the entire vibe I get from all of your photographs. And holy shit nobody cares.
I think that you think that using big or strange cameras makes the whole deal a bit more interesting or something, but at the end of the day you're producing a visual product, and there is nothing compelling visually about what you've created. The light's bad, the composition is bad, the subjects are bad, the moments are bad, you're bad, kill yourself etc.

>>2950229
It's not his fault.
/p/ is full of anxious children who think taking a photo of a stranger is a feat of courage so he's probably received a lot of praise for snapshots like these in the past.
It's basically HoNY without the sappy captions. Which is somehow even worse.

>>2950230
Except it's not even hony.
Hony has value because they are real actual portraits, where the subject gives of themselves to the photographer and thus to the viewer. Yes the style is simple, repetitive and eventually boring, but it's also effective, which is more than can be said for these.
They're just a waste of time, energy and film.

Maybe I'm waisting my time. The machinery will always be better at my own attempts.

But, half the fun is using something 45 years old and letting it work like a watch, like it's supposed to, rather than sit on the shelf and gather dust.

That, and people seem to enjoy film more. Maybe because each shot is more valuable.

have you ever heard of "The Glory of Water" by (bear with me here Im not a dickhead) Karl Lagerfeld? It was a two part exhibition I saw in Paris, daguerrotypes and some old movie, the whole thing centered around the fountains of Rome. Actually cool and you know Karl had nothing to do with those daguerrotypes. Anyway, this is cool and reminded me of that.

On another note, has anyone ever used Lomochrome Purple? Is it just as shitty as the internet makes it look or is there anyway to show true or nearly true color while just having UV spectrum go purple ala Richard Mosse? I want to shoot in NYC and highlight just how little vegetation there is in some parts of the city, especially those that have the highest rent and sale prices like Tribeca, but have zero fuckin foliage, and false color would work if the buildings and sky were true to life or nearly true to life color.

Fine, here's the one they have in running condition. I actually found an old photo of myself climbing on it (absolutely verboten, my parents were shitters) when I visited the museum as a kid and for whatever reason the number of kill marks around the gun has increased since.

>>any hot tips for m mount shooting?
and because I'm a faggot and forgot to answer this. For me the biggest thing to get used to is making sure the RF patch doesn't flare, and focusing on vertical lines when focusing but adjusting it carefully when the DOF is small, making sure to focus a tiny bit farther if required. I mainly just scale focus/stop down anyway.

>>2950381
No problem, take your time man.


I was told yesterday that the Fuji film they sell in Japan is different stock than the one they sell elsewhere, at least the Superia. That it was warmer/more yellow in Japan.
This sounds a bit implausible, but does anyone know if there is any truth to it?

>>2950520
They sell both. Nip-spec is called "Premium" and costs more. They're clearly marked. I've not used it.
>>2950452
Having not used the 1.8, I can't say I have grounds for a comparison, but the 1.4 is dank af. Very nice wide open rendering, very sharp stopped down.

>>2950543
Cool, thanks.

So I shoot with an n90s and a 105mm prime and a friend gave me a roll of ilford 3200 iso to play with. Anything I should try out/mess around with with this film?

>>2950615
I had a roll that had been in my fridge for like a year and a half. Pretty nice for indoors photography, and especially good for high shutter speed stuff. I used it mainly to bump my shutter speed and stop down.

Try shooting anything you've not had a chance to do yet if you've only been shooting film.
It's not really ISO 3200 but is instead pushed at the development stage so bear that in mind when trying to compensate times if you push. Otherwise have fun.

>any hot tips for m mount shooting?
Do more of it, especially if you don't have a lot of experience with manual focus/manual exposure cameras. It takes a while to get really comfortable with a rangefinder, but when you do it's worth it.

Also keep your rangefinder windows clean. Fingerprints or crud on the window can have a surprisingly big effect on the brightness of the focusing patch.

In portrait orientation, either look for horizontal linear features to focus on, or focus in landscape then rotate the camera for final composition. Remember that rangefinder framelines are just guides and are poor tools for precise composition. You should get to the point where your composition is 95% of what you want as soon as you bring the camera up to your eye, then you just make a final adjustment and trip the shutter.

Yeah, Ektar is a fucking cunt to handle, it requires its own snowflake color profile and looks completely wrong with anything else. Overexposing by even a little brings around a blue cast on everything. It feels like a meme film that's trying to bridge two worlds and isn't that great at either. Every time I've shot Ektar I've realized that using either Portra or Provia would have given me far better results. I can't think of any reason why you'd pick Ektar over these two, its sharpness is only slightly better than Portra while having all the issues with the color balance whereas Portra is idiot proof.

>Hexar RF
Hi, welcome to the modern M mount master race. Some Hexar quirks:

Switching the dial to AEL only locks the exposure if you have the shutter half pressed, which can sometimes be a balancing act, since the shutter actuation distance is already shallow as fuck. You can leave the leader out by popping the back when the motor stops the first time, let it ride to rewind fully. The frame line preview lever can be sticky, sometimes displaying more than one set of frames. Just twiddle it a bit to go back to the set frames.

As someone else already said, you can very easily focus in landscape then turn the camera, I usually do this for portrait shots. Your VF and RF windows are multi-coated, so flare is less of an issue but it still happens. Since you are using a 40mm lens with 35mm frame lines, those frame lines are probabaly pretty close to your actual FOV since frame lines are usually like, 90-95% actual coverage.

Definitely use zone focusing to your advantage.

>>2950700
better but still snapshot level, boring af

Pictures basically have no subject, nothing's crisp in focus, no emotional response, nothing unique or interesting or memorable (a huge part of a good photo imo), no forethought.

Having a better scanner wont make these pictures better, they're all bad. Also, I have a older version of that scanner, and I get much better scans out of it. You should learn how to actually use it sometime. Blame yourself, not your tools.

>bad composition
we're still at your pics are bad because they're bad level
why and/or how is it bad?
the only straight lines you can see the end of are the ones that compose the door and the bag, the others are either covered by the dark table in the foreground or by the bag or they're greatly out of focus
this ideally brings the attention to the door and the bag, because those are the most "complete" and uncovered things you can look at in the picture, while making the rest look like it's missing something
would you say that has nothing to do with composition or that it doesn't work?
please if you answer yes justify your answer
>boring af
now I'm really starting to understand what I'm doing wrong and how to fix this
>Also, I have a older version of that scanner, and I get much better scans out of it. You should learn how to actually use it sometime.
may it be that the higher model number doesn't imply better quality scans?
I mean I've read the instructions, I honestly don't have a clue what I could be doing wrong to make my scans come out like these

Fuji 160PRO NS and Kodak Portra 160 - are these the best emulsions ever made? Just made some poverty scans with my phone, the DR is amazing. Everything looks amazing. I gotta get them properly scanned.

>>2950216
Holy shit m8. Just stop using a lab. I'm serious, I'm 10000000000000% against the DSLR scanning fag but seriously give it a go.
There is absolutely no reason for a lab to be giving you back stuff like this other than sheer laziness.

>>2950675
It's honestly not that bad if you know how to use photoshop. Ye, it's not quite as resilient as other C-41 emulsions but it's certainly not bad. I've got a massive soft spot for shooting it in 120. 135 even shooting in an xpan/bronica I just feel like I should probably be shooting Portra instead for the extra speed. I'm not a huge fan of tripods or things that don't move. Tho I should probably put a roll of it through a camera with some faster glass maybe.
>>2950679
It seems like you could probably do with learning what your scanner's true DPI is. I'd probably start here. http://www.filmscanner.info/en/CanonCanoScan9000F.html
Flatbeds aren't honestly as bad as people give them flak for, as long as you don't overstep the boundaries. It's not like you're using these scans to print from.
>>2950719
I have a huge soft spot for Portra. I wonder what Kodak and Fujifilm would have come up with if digicams etc hadn't taken over. The last Canikon pro bodies are also something else.

>>2950733
Well the newest Portra was introduced in 2011 IIRC. It seems to be the best all-round emulsion. I like the greens in the fujifilm better though. I wonder what Ektar is like. Gotta find out I guess.

>>2950675
I honestly tried it because someone said it was good for landscaping and the like. Should have stuck with Fuji - I always liked what Fuji did.

Blue on overexposure might explain it. The Hi-Matic does tend to overexpose a little in daylight, but not in a controlled sort of way.

>>2950733
Not going back there again. Other prints came out scratched and dirty. The place I used to use - which was just an ordinary chemist, used to give out beautiful clean, crisp prints. This dedicated photography shop blew it first chance it got.

There's a place that came recommended, but desu I'd be embarrassed to go to a proper photography place. I amn't even at that sort of level.

On saying that I picked up a Spotmatic while I was over there that's halfway through a roll of film. Using an app on the phone to meter to see if this 50 year old thing even works .

Well, in theory Ektar is great for landscapes, but you need to have as much as control over the post process to get it right. If you're using Silverfast for scanning, the neutral gray pipette works wonders as long as you have something gray in the photo. Saves a lot of curve twisting in photoshop later. Lab scans are probably going to fuck you twice over. In Japan I'd just roll Superia Premium for general purpose and then have an odd roll of Provia around for landscapes, preferably loaded in separate cameras.

Also I recommend getting as many rolls developed in Japan, I've tried several labs in Tokyo and Hiroshima and all delivered excellent, clean and scratch-free negatives for half of the cost of developing in my home country.

This desu. Lab scanners generally will correct emulsions on their own but Ektar requires a bit more input. The software they use allows them to correct casts at least a little bit (enough to correct cross processed E6 to a decent-ish enough level).

I'd really recommend learning how to colour correct in photoshop or how to scan. Alex Burke has a decent-ish tutorial for easily colour correcting which he mentions Ektar IIRC.

Their 135 lenses were okay, especially for the price you can pick them up for today but they're still not the best. Their 80's stuff has some of the dodgiest build quality I've ever seen on lenses.

This one seems to be from the 70's but no way to be sure. It came with an ST701 which I was planning on making my new main system, but this roll made me change my mind.

>>2950758
Thanks.

Was fiddling with GIMP's level controls. Ended up letting it do it automatically. Usually when given a decent grey-point and with the bottom of the red channel chopped of, it could get rid of the worse.

It is a frustrating endeavour sometimes. Thanks for the suggestion.

It's good to know that they're recovereable, at least. It'll just take some perseverance on the scans.

As it is, I'll stick to Fuji for the time being. It's decent film, and cheap enough. Maybe try some monochrome over the winter if I get the cash for a development kit and scanner,

Trying not to just extpost - and rather than repost the same thing, over and over again.

I wrote >>2950229 and >>2950234 and you will need to get over yourself and digest these kinds of criticisms rather than dismissing them if you want to improve as a photographer rather than a park creeper. Nobody doubts that you didn't put plenty of effort into taking the photos, developing and printing them, but at the end of the day nobody cares about what you do in your own time; they care about the pictures. And these pictures suck (fuccboi sk8er slightly excluded, it's the best by a country mile).

I just shot that pushed 2 stops under, on an f90x(same as yours). If you plan on going in dark areas, I'd recommend spot metering, not matrix. Matrix will only expose to what light it picks up, which is often not what you want.

Develop it a little longer than what ilford says.

It's a Hi-Matic E I bought in Washington DC for $10. Stuck a Li battery in it and it works well enough. There's something fascinating about old machinery that just works. And it's better to try and use it, rather than leave it gather dust on a shelf, or get skipped out by Trump goons after they evicted the shopowner from the old Post Office.

I'm long back from Japan anyway. Didn't have the time to get stuff processed - I was rushing around a bit. Came home with a Pentax Spotmatic with the original Super-Takumar lens though....

I have been much happier with Ektar, and color neg in general, since I started hand inverting. I bet I wasted a couple years trying to find a magic bullet auto-magic software solution to process color neg. Each of these solutions would occasionally get it right, and I'd think I was on the right path. But alot more often, it really fucked up the colors. I only wish I could get back the time wasted on auto-software, and apply it toward practising hand-inversion. I'd be much further along.

So I got a bunch of slide film I'm shooting on my f100. Should I stick to just c41 for my F? The light meter works. Pic was on om-1 w/ Fujipro 400

Was recently given about 15 rolls of black and white film, in varying flavors - HP5, legacypro 400 (supposedly neopan 400?), Delta 3200, and a couple of one-off 125 speed rolls, all expired but sitting in a freezer. Now, I'm normally a c41 shooter (superia), but I cant let all this film go to waste. This film will be scanned when I finish developing it.

Whats a good all-around developer to use for general purposes? I've read good things about Ilfotec DD-X, Ilfotec HC, Rodinal, X-Tol, and T-Max, but I can't decide.

I plan on doing stand developing with the HP5 because of the results I've seen online, and a more regular recipe with the other films.

I like T-max for most non-special purpose films, it develops fast and keeps very well without fucking around with special bottles, etc.
Avoid rodinal for most of what you've listed; the grain will be very intrusive, and the tonal range very flat.
D76 is also good, sharp, contrasty developer for normal films, but it's a powder :/

>>2951022
>>2951098
I think he's asking if the meter on a Nikon F100 meters good enough for slide film.

From personal experience, it does very well.

Kurwa doesn't have to worry about fucking up dev because he's never taken an actual photograph in his life. He's a classic case of every roll being a test roll.

>>2951214
I'm not advocating for rodinal, just against subjective shits' harmful opinions. The actual negative's look, considering the final digital version posted online, is almost always irrelevant. You can recover and pp almost anything in terms of the final image look. Unless you make enlargements choice of developer is down to, again, your personal convenience. Actively advocating against a specific one because of the way you used and didnt like it seems childish at best. hc-110 is an excellent syrupy convenient dev, I'd take it over rodinal every day, personally. It's just annoying to see personal vendettas posted under the guise of actual information.

>>2951233

Fug.

>>2951239
It's perfectly adequate. Beginners will appreciate how it's not all that sensitive to variations in temperature, so if your room temperature is 22°C year round then just leave some water out for a couple of hours and develop according to the 20°C recipe, it'll be fine.

Many develop all their films in Rodinal. It's completely adequate for that purpose. However, I went for HC-110 because I like to push my film without increasing grain all that much, and Microphen is way more expensive than HC-110 (ca. 80 eurocents per roll) despite being also a hydroquinone/phenidone developer.

Came back to thread in the morning after asking a developer question, and a disagreement among developers has popped up. Most of this is due to the normal 4chan "let's overreact and troll and stuff" but I see some legitimate quips of knowledge buried here.

I read some stuff online about solvent developers vs non-solvent developers vs compensating developers. Should I worry about that at this point?

I like the colors and the texture of the image.

What's the subject of the image, to you?

If it's the lower box with writing, you could get closer to that subject - an image with the three boxes would have cool composition (splitting the image into thirds) and show the writing in a more defined way. You can also try playing with light a bit more, and take the photo when the sun gives a shadow inside the boxes. Not sure if your camera can focus that close, though.

When something strikes you about an image, ask yourself what that is, and why? Doesn't have to be a huge artistic movement, just "I like the graffiti carved into this along with the wood grain". Step 1 in composition is to get closer to your subject so you can isolate and define it further.

Secondly, bisecting the frame down the center (like many people do with landscapes and other images) is generally a bad idea for multiple reasons that I won't get into because I've got to go somewhere.

Your homework is to shoot three rolls of film solely focusing on rule of thirds and texture, and avoiding bisecting the frame down the center. Every image on those three rolls will be you either looking at the texture of something and making it the prime subject, or strictly adhering to rule of thirds. You'll thank me.

>>2951326

Perhaps I wasn't clear. I am NOT against Rodinal, and I use it often diluted 1+50 using normal agitations. I AM against stand development. It truly is the meme of all memes. And recommending it to beginners is total fucking cancer. I mentioned hc-110 not because I think it's superior, but because it wasn't mentioned, is very easy to work with, is cheap, gives decent results, and lasts forever in concentrated form.

>>2951397
the film is actually pretty nice (its kodak t-balanced motion picture film), but when you process in c41 the grain and sharpness go down the shitter.

also incredibly over-marketed to the point of straight up false advertising (when processed in c41 this film can NOT handle underexposure at a speed faster than ~640 iso, despite Cinestill's repeated claims that it can be used at up to 1600)

>>2951412
this guy is right, cross-processing ecn-II film in c41 makes the film grainier, gives it a weird, hard to correct color balance and yields lower speed. also not a fan of the light blooms resulting from the removal of the anti-halation layer. just get actual kodak vison film on ebay and process it in ecn-II yourself, way cheaper and much better results.

Expensive, not really worth the price as it's also grainy as fuck. You can shoot Fuji Natura 1600 and get less grain than CT at 1000. Pic related shot at ISO 1000, developed in C-41. If I'd known that it's actually supposed to be developed in an entirely different process to prevent horrible grain, I never would have coughed up the money. Tungsten balanced can be a handy feature, but nowadays you can just shoot daylight balanced and correct the difference with nearly no effort in post.
