GIVE TO ME FOR INSTAMATIC

Anyone have experience with rollei 35? I have a canon ae1-meme camera but I want a smaller one and I want to try rangefinders.

>will never know because someone busted the screw on the bottom to open it up

I like the way it looks at least.

open it up you cuck. do it in the dark, might have a film inside.

>>2971181
cant, the screw on the bottom is fucked. Theres a screw-thing in there and according to a youtube video I watched it was supposed to be a D-ring that you unscrewed by hand but its not stationary so if you push on it at all it gets stuffed up into the body.

>>2971185

theres no i cant, theres only i dont want to reeee

open it, arent you curious?

these are the options:
>you never open it, you dont know what it has inside, you die
>you open it, it has cool content, you fuck the camera but you still have the chance to left it for display, you die
>you open it, has cool content, the camera is now usable, you fucking die

do it now!

>>2971185

Even if the manual screw is broken there very likely are small screws holding the whole plate.

Full size, you can see the center screw is inside. If I pick at it I can get it to 'fall' down into the middle but like I said, any pressure applied to it and it retracts quicker than my testicles on a <50° day.

Plus the tunnel viewfinder (its not a rangefinder) is missing its glass or plastic on both sides and the extinction meter is missing/busted.

The lever on the lens itself still operates the shutter and the shutter speed is still modulated by the dial. Not sure what the button on the top of the body does however. It doesn't seem to do anything that I can hear, though it does take a little force to push down.

Just an old point'n'shoot. I couldn't even justify the price of repair cause you can buy a working Argus A3 for like $70 or $80

Opinions on Fuji 160NS? Might pick up some 220 pro-packs this weekend

>>2971215

super soft and pastely. works cool on asian skin.

>>2971160
Yes

Does anyone have an Instax 90 Mini ? Just purchased one and it's coming in tomorrow.

On older cameras that don't automatically advance the film, how do you know how far to advance it manually?
I could see me getting less than 24/36 exposures just because I advanced too far.

>>2971280
One full cock and release of the lever (advance it all the way, return it back) advances exactly one frame. A lot of cameras have a ratchet on the film-advance that doesn't let it return back until the film has been advanced the proper amount.

Basically you don't need to worry about it for most models of camera.

It's high quality film. Sharp, saturated, excellent latitude for postprocessing. I find it relatively cool compared to other films.

>>2971280
Read the manual for such camera to be sure.

It seems like the readily available 35mm color films from Adorama & BH are basically

>Kodak Kodacolor
>Kodak Ektar
>Kodak Portra
>Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia
>Fujifilm Velvia
>Fujifilm Provia

What really sets these apart? I've heard Velvia is good for slides and that Ektar is good for bright sunny days. But I don't know about the rest. Whats your experience been?

>>2971452
Kodacolor and Superia are general purpose budget films. They are great and can do almost anything. Ektar has a lot of contrast and Portra is very muted with an interesting and distinctive look. Velvia is really great for objects and nature. Provia can do everything but does not look as good as Velvia with nature. Velvia and Provia as slide films have terrible latitudes. They work great when properly exposed and there isn't a lot of latitude in the photo. Just choose what part of the of the photo you really care about and expose for that.

>>2971452
protip: go to flickr and browse yourcamera/yourdreamcamera+emulsion (ie. mamiya c220 portra 160).

prepare to be floored.

>>2971143

OK, I have a question. I've developed two rolls of black and white film so far. They both came out okay, but near the middle of the roll there is a strange sort of visual distortion I cannot quite describe.

It looks like certain parts of the image got a lot more developer, or a lot less, in one or two frames; a sort of wave pattern, like an S on its side. I'm pretty confident I'm spooling this shit correctly, it all unwinds easily; I'm following the time and temperature recommended, but it's happened twice now, and I'm curious as to what may be causing it.

I have a scanner ordered, should be here in two days. Will upload examples when possible.

>>2971225
Gotcha.

>>2971286
Awesome, just what I wanted to hear. A bit cool eh? Wonder how itd look with a warming filter. Will do a few test shots with one for sure.

>>2971452
>Kodak Kodacolor
Often real cheap, rather grainy but vivid colors. Good for recreating those old timey comfy holiday snapshits when shot with an old everyman's camera like a Hi-Matic AF.
>Kodak Ektar
Koda's attempt at creating a replacement for slide film with a negative film. Sharp grain, can deliver excellent colors, but highly undependable and requires a lot of correction in post. Tends to produce a blue cast which makes scenes look bleak. Not recommended because Portra and slide films will give you better results more reliably.
>Kodak Portra
Idiot proof film, fast, sharp grain, great colors, and dependable. The kind of film to take when you're unsure of what you'll face because it fits nearly any situation.
>BONUS: Kodak Gold/Ultramax
Less saturated than Kodacolor with sharper grain. Great all-round film but usually more expensive and less widely available than Fuji's equivalents (depending on your location).
>Fujicolor/Superia
I've found C200 to be the best cheap color film around in overall performance. Superias tend to shift towards magenta but this is easy to fix. Less grainy than Kodacolor, loses to Kodak Gold in colors but is usually cheaper and better available.
>Fujifilm Velvia
The maxed saturation slider before Photoshop was a thing. Sharp as a razor, extremely vivid colors, powerful contrast. Expensive and as a slide film, tricky to expose especially in high contrast situations. When you nail it though, the results are worth it.
>Fujifilm Provia
An all-round slide film, not as crazy saturated as Velvia.
>BONUS: Fuji Pro 400H
Fuji's answer to Portra. Soft pastel colors when you need that kind of look.

>>2971280
On cameras with a winding knob and an interlocked shutter (i.e. FEDs, Zorkis, Leica iis, etc.), the knob will turn and then stop. The user is expected to wind until that point. Releasing the shutter allows the knob to go forward one frame's worth again.

The lever-wound cameras will also stop winding after one frame. Some require a short stroke, others a long stroke (soviet cameras in particular go like 180 degrees from where it catches), some leicas require two strokes. Many allow the user to do either.

tl;dr -- the camera is set up so that film doesn't wind too far. In some it'll also not wind too little even with user error, i.e. the camera won't expose a partial frame.

>>2971313
The best place for manuals on old film cameras is Orphan Cameras - the site is: http://www.butkus.org/chinon/
Unlike all the other sites that have manuals this one has great scans and Dick does not charge for them. Of course he asks for a donation but none needed.

is it true that film can get fucked at airports or is it just a dank /p/ maymay

>>2971970
It won't affect you if you're shooting film that's natively less than ISO800. If you're doing commercial work or you're worried, get it handchecked. It'll take no time at all assuming you're not brown.

>>2971970
Film does get majorly fucked by the main luggage scanners. So keep film in your carry-on bag, and don't go through with a loaded camera in case they want to open it up. Generally the whole-body scanner and the carry-on scanner don't fog film noticeably (i.e. under a film scanner) until seven or eight passes down, or pushed real hard (6400 and beyond).

Didnae think so.

of course we have tae accept the fact that the bugger askin' the question's a wee gobshite who didnae say how much film he's takin' wi' 'im or what type a film he shoots so as far as I'm concerned he's still a wee gobshite who's baiting pricks like you to post sources fae kodak.
>>2972015
I'm pretty sure Tungsten balanced film is enjoying a nice revival at the moment with people paying through the nose to shoot cinestill instead of Vision. Why you'd pay £9 a roll to do it when you could buy a filter for your lens is beyond me. Tho I guess the lomo crowd will eat anything up that doesn't have a practical use.

I need a new compact. My Nikon L35AF is being unreliable and I feel it's a clunky piece of shit anyway.

What other options do I have? The Mju ii is the obvious choice. I can get a Yashica T3 for a similar price or a T4/T5 if I spend a bit more. I like the idea of the super scope but is it just a gimmick or is it good for street shooting?

Just ordered a Plustek 8100. Got a pretty good Black Friday deal. Should I get Vuescan? I've heard the software that comes with it is a pile of shit.

>>2972279
I've been using the Silverfast software that comes with it for two years and never had any problems with it. I tried Vuescan recently and I don't see what all the fuss is about, it's horribly clunky to use and can't even display histograms or anything. All you have is a bunch of sliders with no information displayed.

I don't think many others are that good, but I like this one.

This is a cane my dad made for my grandfather out of a root of a tree. He spent weeks sanding and staining it, getting it perfect, and my grandfather had a stroke and became unresponsive before he could give it to him.

He didn't die immediately, he lived on an IV for a while just to see if he'd snap out of it, but he didn't. He kept going for maybe a week after they took out the IV expecting him to starve to death.

I've never seen anyone that thin in my life and I hate that it had to be him.

Poorly composed, and the story doesn't make the picture any better. Millennial stereotype/10

>>2972496
Yeah the photo doesn't convey anything about the story, I just liked the contrast and shapes. Story's unrelated to the photo on its own.

I just vent about it anonymously sometimes because it still bothers me.

>9 quid a roll
>Portra 400
GEORGE! STOP! Start buying in bulk, even the propacks are cheaper from the most expensive places. I shoot P400 every now and then but usually buy about 15-20 rolls at a time with about another 50-60 rolls of misc film. I don't think I've ever paid more than £6 a roll for P400/160. Portra 800 is a right old cunt though.

It's really worth it if you shoot a lot in high contrast scenes though, Portra really loves to push the limit when it comes to retaining highlights.

As for C&C, while taking pictures of homeless people isn't my style the other shots are well framed, well exposed and focused properly.
>>2972566 is probably the best, maybe not intentional but the separation from the left and right of the frame along with the subject passing in front of the shadow works really well for it. I'd say I'm impressed with the shutter speed but I guesstimate It was 1/60 or 1/125 since she's running.

Keep it up. I like seeing good photos in the /fgt/.

>>2972572
>>2972580
>>2972582

>>2972583
Where do you get yours from? Cheapest I've seen it is like £40 for a pack of 5. I've got boat loads of Agfa Vista 200 to run through which I've hoarded from Poundland. Portra will probably be my go-to 400 from now on though. Superia 400 never looks great to me which is what I've used in past.

Was shot at 1/125 I think, and thanks!

>>2972591
I usually get film from ebay/amazon/fotoimpex. There's a few other sites out there but I do buy in bulk. Been a while since I bought P160/400 desu, still have about 40~ rolls in my fridge at the moment. last time I bought P400 was in January for around 4.71 eurobux per roll. Last time I bought 135, was £30 for a 5 pack.

it's best to check every site when you're stocking up, buying in higher quantity usually pushes the price down pretty far. Kodak films tend to rise and fall in price at times due to available stock.

>tfw the other day i needed to test a lens and i opened my spotmatics back and it had film loaded

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

but, i have a big piece of masking tape on the back of my rolleiflex with explicit instructions on how to load the film, i always forget how to do it and shit wont advance the counter if you do it wrong.

>>2972599
Better than mine, I started using stickers to record film/ISO but they left behind a sticky residue so I stopped. I open film doors so often that it's stopped being funny a long time ago. If the camera has a tab I TRY to put some cardboard in with film etc in it but I'm not the best at it or it gets lost. My film windows are taped to prevent fogging for IR film.
I shit you not, I opened a 6x4.5 back tonight to find some fomapan 400 inside. It's no big loss but I need help

What are you using on your backs and what kinda residue does it leave behind? I wouldn't mind trying some neato methods.

>>2972601
It's just plain 3M masking tape. The plain adhesive on paper tapes doesn't leave a jelly residue like plastic tapes. This is the first time I've labeled them with tape, but i have experience with this tape and it doesn't leave any stain. If it does you can clean it with rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. If you want to go a little further, use blue painters tape, it's designed to peel off clean.

>>2972729
Was the rumour true that Acros was being put down? Coupla months ago.

>>2972815
It costs the exact same per frame for 36exp as it does for 24exp. Went with 24exp so I can get the film deved more frequently (it takes me a good few weeks to burn through 36 exposures usually).

>>2972818
It doesn't cost the exact same per frame when you pay 50% more for dev.
Congratulations, you played yourself.

what the fuck. so if you shoot hassy pano with logn ass frames you get charged pennies for a whole roll?

what if you do a one shot roll with a pinhole camera, will that count as a single frame too?

stop, you're embarassing yourself

Is there a way to convert a fixed focus camera into a zone focus one, say to have 3 presets infinite macro and 1.5mt?

>>2973100
Just have to move the lens forward or backward slightly. If you're lucky the lens will be on a screw mount and you can just turn it a bit.

>>2973104

yeah i was thinking about that, got to see some pics of the camera open up and the lens is some kind of tube with 3 elements inside, moving it forward about 2 mm forward should give me macro.

>>2972919
>Same goes for 120/220
Yeah, most places do that, but a 220 roll is fully double the size, so the justification is obvious.
Does anyone really calculate their replenishment/costs depending on whether they put 24's, 27's or 36's through their minilab though?

>>2973125

when i take my 220 rolls to the lab i dont tell them they are 220, so they charge me a 120 roll, hahaha can you believe it? im such a FREAK

>getting charged for different frame counts or film lengths
I didn't you people in /fgt/ were such doormats. There's 0 justification for this if you're paying for processing only.

You doormats are paying for processing only right? You're not one of those shitters who has to have the lab scan their shit right?

I always get lo-res scans from my local lab which I basically use as a contact sheet to select my best shots. I've got a Plustek 8100 so it'd be a bit of a pain to do the whole roll.

No...you get charged for whatever a roll of 24 / 36 exposures costs...regardless of how many frames are actually on a roll.

>>2973125
I guess they do? My last lab was something like:
>$2.99 for 12 exp rolls
>3.49 for 24 exp rolls
>$3.99 for 36 exp rolls

Obviously at that place you might as well shoot 36exp rolls because you get 12 extra frames for another 50 cents.

>>2973145
Of course I get dev only. I don't see the problem tbhfamalam.

>>2973159
You don't live in a place with light or have the ability to hold up a roll of film?

In a black friday fugue, I seem to have gearfagged me a 1970s Tamron 300mm f/5.6, adaptall version, for 30€. Did I do good? This'll go on a OM-4 w/ ganged flash (combined GN 37-ish m) cos there's fuck-all light around this time of year.

Maybe there'll be something interesting between 2.5 and 9.25 meters, yeah? Dead plants and shit.

Sorry if this should go in the gear thread, but should I get a pen-EE2 or a konika MG for my first film camera? Are they different enough that I wouldn't regret buying both?

>>2973280
>pen-EE2 or a konika MG for my first film camera?

both will give you different stuff. pen is half frame point n shoot. the other one is standard party/beach cam with built in flash. half frame means huge grain, not so sharp pics, but hella fun. not very suitable for lanscapes where you want detail, more for daidoing on the streets and everyday snaps.

beware of pen selenium meter, get a working one.
konica is a big camera for you. have that in mind. there are way smaller full frame p&s.

>>2973284
Could I live with a broken meter if I'm smart with it?
I'll probably get both, only way to make sure I won't regret getting the other.

I don't like it, it isn't really anything to me but an old radio and wine.

It frankly looks like you accidently took a photo while in a wine store. Subject matter is boring. Composition isnt existant. Lighting sucks. I wouldn't have even bothered scanning that frame desu.

I have about 1500 for a LF or MF kit for exhibition sized work (50"x60" or less). I currently use a Rolleiflex 2.8D and have trouble going beyond 24"x24" sometimes.

I plan to use the Rolleiflex still but would like something for when I have more time to setup. I do a mixture of documentary portrait and landscape. My main reason is being able to tilt for landscape as I generally shoot low and can't get close to infinity focus on the rolleiflex without losing detail across the image.

I've considered the GX680 but I'm not sure about the max print size from 6x8, even if I'm able to avoid diffraction from tilt. However this plays into my other concern. I'm usually swimming in 120 film so having to invest in sheet film will be a part of the cost. Im set on Portra for my work so I know I won't be squeezing out as much resolution as some lenses are capable of. That being said is the difference between 6x8 and 4x5 as noticeable with color negative vs BW?

M8, I develop and scan every frame of film I shoot myself. When you DSLR scan, it takes literally a second to produce a better quality scan than can even be achieved by 90's methods. There are even ipon apps that invert your negs in real time to function as a preview, if you're so broke and dumb that you can't scan *all* of the film you shoot.

You're responding to the wrong post or at the very least you've misread it entirely. In case you're wondering why you've responded to the wrong post, it's because everything after the first sentence aligns with my views. I'm not against scanning/dslr scanning in any way, in fact I'm PRO-DSLR SCANNING for the simple fact you're fucking doing it yourself, which is in essence the very fucking scientific opposite of being so lazy that you need to have a lab process and scan your shit.

LF is a substantial IQ improvement.
But honestly the biggest reason to disregard the GX is the camera itself.
>meme batteries
>meme accessories
>must shot whole roll
>enormous

>all this for no LF
Compared to most 4x5 systems, which are dirt cheap, and endlessly versatile, and give superior IQ from cheaper, more common lenses, it should be an obvious choice.
I mean, those EBC Fujinons, sure. But the larger film is always going to deliver a bigger improvement than the sharper lense.

To me it seems like C200 that's a stop slower for no benefit at all and is more expensive because "lol professional industry film". Or at least that's how it was marketed here for the brief period it was available, before they replaced it with C200 because it probably wasn't selling.

I'm more on board with the translation "business" than "professional" because it isn't really like professional films since it isn't quite low contrast and low saturation like other professional films and on the box it says "この商品は業務用にセットされたもので、単体では販売しておりません" which states the film is packaged in bulk for business use.

I also don't think it's marked up at all, Industrial 100 is probably Fujicolor 100, and FujiColor Superia 100 goes for $2.49 (+ $4.53 shipping) for 12 measly exposures, but a 36 exposure roll of Industrial 100 goes for $3.90. According to Amazon and RangeFinderForum. http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=154715 https://www.amazon.com/FujiColor-Superia-Speed-Exposure-Color/dp/B000TXY50Y

I can see why you'd think that though, and it might even be true, since C200 is just Superia without the new cyan layer.

I reckon it's the Sam's Club to Superia's Walmart though.

For $250 or less you can get a Graflex 45 of some sort, usually with lens. Get the lens CLA'd if its a craigslist buy, and get some holders and a tripod, and you're still way under $750. I would buy nice holders, fidelity or lisco plastic holders, not wood since they tend to leak more and you can't shoot Infrared with them.

The graflex tilts enough to do scheimpflug outdoors and would just generally be easy to use. I don't really have any opinion on resolving power of the actual film, I have some 5x8 foot prints from 4x5s that look nice. If it's an inkjet image, the image may not hold up due to the software used to enlarge it. I use a rip software called ImagePrint, massive images and updated ICCs.

Shooting 10 sheets of Portra would be ~$60 after processing so you're looking at $6 an image. And scanning can be done on a flat bed with very acceptable results because the negative is literally massive.

Just don't do the GX those things aren't meant to be used for anything outside of a studio, motherfuckers weigh more than my deardorff.

Pic unrelated unless you wanna shoot handheld 8x10.

They were selling it here labeled as professional film for product images and such for 7e a pop, which is around as much as Portra 160. Meanwhile C200 costs 3e a roll. I shoot C200 a lot and I can safely say it outperforms Industrial 100 in everything, so I wouldn't buy it even if they were in the same price class.

>handheld 8x10
Good lord. Digifag here just lurking, but this peaked my interest. Isn't LF, especially 8x10, a slow and tedious process of shooting? Like having to meter, load film, focus etc would be so fucked. I'm guessing this is just a modern experiment built for ""fun"", or did they actually shoot handheld back in the day aswell? Do you have an sample images with it? Sorry for all the questions

>>2973781
just got it in the mail today. It's massive and weird as fuck. basically its a box to put a holder in the back with the film and helicoid focussing ring with a lens. It's easiest to use hyper focal distances. This is relatively new ~10 years, although the hobo 810 and some handholdable aerial cameras have existed for a while.

Traditionally speaking, this would've been impossible, but with higher film speeds and better shutters, it is an option. I still plan to use it mainly on tripod but just the fact that it doesn't fold up allows for a vast increase in speed and usability.

lol this thing looks goofy as fuck, in a pleasing and good way though. From your pic I thought it'd be just a flat box.

Honestly I thought it would turn out more pleasing, I really should have stuck my hand in their van and ordered it a little.

I didn't call it a snapshit for nothing, mostly I just like the color.

Thinking back on it and deciding why I took the photos so I can refine my decision making.

Definitely the colors, and the things. This van is someone's livelihood. A photo of the whole thing would convey the latter better since you can see all the tools they use and depend on crammed into one little van. I think it's neat, compressing such a large section of someone's life into a single box.

I gotta get more conceptual huh. One day.

But how big is the helicoid? Does it give you focusing from Infinity right down to 47 metres?

Definitely not a Chrysler slant 6. The fuel pump mounting boss in the center of the left side of the engine makes this a Ford 144/170/200/250 c.i.d.

So, was Superia discontinued? I bought the last of the stock at the Walgreens by my house, and now they're selling Kodak Gold.

the helicoid on the 120 focuses to 2.5 meters, approximately 8 feet, with hyperfocal I can pull 6 feet to 20 at f/22. ISO 100 and f/16 would give me 1/125 of a second, I think I can hand hold that, or get down to 1/8th with a monopod. The helicoid sits on top of a cone, so the lens is already at infinity.

I just bought my girlfriend a film camera for her birthday

I don't know too much about photography, but what is the recommended 120 film that is not too expensive?

>>2974036
fuji pro 160NS, fuji Provia 100f or Kodak Tri-X 400

>>2974036
Cheapest 120 film your going to find will be Ilford.

>>2973697
It's definitely got some contrast, but the dynamic range is also great so you have a lot to work with.

Like the other anon said, your shop is just dumb and mistranslating. Crazy they mark it up to 7e. Labeling it as professional and charging 7e/roll makes them sound like a shady business. In Japan a 36exp roll is 360¥... it's the cheapest color c41 film I can buy.

Is there a best practise when scanning images? I just bought a Plustek scanner over Black Friday and have been using the Silverfast software that comes with it.

The top image is the lab scan which was made on a Fuji Frontier. The bottom image is just the default negative scanning settings on Silverfast.

I'm intended to just edit my tiffs straight in Photoshop. Is it best to just scan a flat/neutral image and then soup up the contrast etc. in photoshop or should I be applying all that in the scanner settings?

I've heard people mention Vuescan but what does that do any different than Silvefast?

>>2974254

I like vuecan because you can find profiles for the film or use community made ones. also you should scan to bring out the shadows if you plan to work in post

>>2974262
So I should slightly overexposure my scan? Isn't there that plugin for Photoshop that matches film profiles that's much better though? Colourperfect?

>>2974273

i use silverfast, hated vuescan.

what i do is put some nice and flat preset like the 400nc one then pull back all contrast and pull up all highlights. dont touch exposure or brigth boost or whatever sliders, dont touch temperature either. get a flat scan then work on it.

film presets from scanning software are all crap.

hey nigger how about you drop the slav low self esteem meme and just post the goddamn flickr link. Your scant uploads indicate a level of discipline in composition (or solid editing, at least) that makes me curious for seeing it excercised in the environment you moan about so much. Since we share it I wanna see how you view it via your works. Or some shit. Just post link and stop being an insecure faget.

reee

I'm thinking of buying one of those light-pad things so that I can use a DSLR to scan my negatives.

I don't have a film holder from a scanner or anything though. Can I just put the film on the light pad under a piece of glass or something to keep it flat? Or will this do Bad Things?

Yeah the one that was on some 3rd party auction site? The dude also had a bunch of Nazi memorabilia, helmets, banners, flags, posters. He had a few WWII photo books that were going for weirdly high prices especially the ones of Adolf. I looked into him after that and apparently he got t-boned by a car while on his bike.

>>2974846
Some plastic shit, probably. Don't buy that though, just buy a stainless tank and a Hewes reel. It's pretty expensive for what it is but it'll last you forever and save you a whole lot of fumbling around in the dark.

>>2974854

Plastic
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/886586-REG/Paterson_Universal_Tank_with_Two.html

Plastic is easier if you have no idea what you're doing. Stainless is easy once you've practiced a couple of times and less likely to break or jam. Wash off chemical residue when you're done developing and make sure everything is totally dry the next time you use it or you're going to suffer.

Developer concentrates (rodinal and hc-110 mainly) are fine at room temperature, i.e. 20-24 degrees C. Same for working-strength fixer, stop, and four-bath C41. Powders can be stored at any temperature so there's no point to freezing them, same for C41 concentrates and starter.

>>2973435
This is a real nice photo but yeah, you've got a lot of magenta there.

Im having a small light flare(?) in my Pentax 6x7, in the same corner in every photo. I accidentally pushed the curtain cloth the other day, managed to get it running normally afterwards, but this is happening now. Looks like a ligh leak but it isnt happening in a corner but towards the center of the frame, could the cloth thing be involved? It seems to be looking fairly ok, cant see any difference at what it looked before.
