Get a yellow or orange filter and process your scans better or something. Go to curves/levels and lower the black point. Your photos look more gray and gray than black and white. At box speed, Acros is not a very contrasty film but this is what it looks like when I scan it.
>>3036257
Depends how you process it. I pull Acros to 80 in Ilfosol 3 and it's pretty damn contrasty for me

read the sticky then end yourself faggot
How do I keep fucking up printing? I just started printing again because I took an 3-weeks-unclaimed box of print paper from the communal darkroom I use. Even when I carefully inspect my test strips, my shots are coming out over and underexposed.
Tonight, I made prints from some negatives that were probably a little overexposed. The prints were blown the fuck out (very white) and even when I doubled the exposure time, detail wasn't appearing. What baffled me is that there is clearly plenty of detail that wouldn't show up, no matter how long I exposed them. Is that the sign of a thoroughly overexposed negative?
I really need to relearn printing, since I haven't done it in almost 10 years. Should I just go back and read Ansel Adams books for that info?
Also, on a related note, how the fuck do I spotmeter? I did recently read Ansel Adams' book on the negative. I can't seem to nail this shit. As of right now I'm taking double shots, usually one or two stops apart, because I don't trust myself. I still fuck up most of them. It's very hard for me to "think" in black and white; differentiating brightness while ignoring colour. Anyone got advice for it?
Lastly, I'm finally gonna' make the jump to DSLR scans. I wanted to get a V800 but shit is too price for me. I have a shitty old Rebel, and the lens it came with. AF is broken on the lens, though. Is AF necessary? Is the default zoom lens capable, or do I get a prime? I already have some cheap Nikon extension tubes and adapter ring, without contacts for AF.
>>3036297
Sorry, very very tired. Long day. What I meant here
>detail wasn't appearing
is that there was information clearly visible on the negative that wasn't coming through on the print, regardless of greater exposure. I couldn't tease it out.
>>3036298
Are you checking your test strips and prints in white light? Shit that looks like it has no detail in red light may actually have detail in white light.

Are you leaving your test strips to dry? Prints appear darker when wet
>>3036302
Yes, I checked it in white light. Once I pick them up tomorrow I'll post the prints to show what's going on.
>>3036307
How long do they take to dry?
I'm starting to recognise a big part of the problem is that my exposures aren't proper. I do need to get a handle on spot metering.
When I was 14 and taking snapshits with the Nikon 35mm, I never had significant exposure problems like this. That SLR had TTL. Nor did I have an issue with the 30-degree sekonic dinosaur while shooting the Hasselblad.
When I have complete conscious control over metering and no hand-holding, my retardation comes to the fore. I feel defeated.
I just don't get how negatives can look fine, and then print like shit. That's why I want to get on scanning them with the DSLR.
>>3036297
Was there anything at all on the prints? Or just a blank sheet of paper? My advice would be to max out your contrast filters, overexpose and under develop. Increase your exposure using a bigger aperture rather than a longer time. I do the opposite for very thin negatives, once got a reasonable print out of an almost blank negative for a friend whose cat had died, and whose favourite pic of it was of course the worst negative I had.
>>3036297
>how the fuck do I spotmeter?
Important to remember that a spot reading is most useful in conjunction with an ambient reading, as the density of any one point on the negative is relative to the exposure you give the whole scene.
Also useful to remember, if you only have a reflected light meter, that green grass meters the same as middle grey.
Before you really know what you're doing, spot metering is mostly effective as a teaching tool; take careful notes of readings throughout a scene when you photograph it, and then comparing that with how you find the process of printing/scanning them.

If you can get it cheaply, then do so. It's not worth paying a premium for, but it's *alright*. I'd put it on the same level as Kodak Gold or Fujicolor 200
>>3036331
I guess I will pass then. Might get some Provia 400X for shits and giggles. But to be honest, I don't even know why would I need fast slide films. I got too much sunlight in where I live and I rarely shoot anything faster than 400.

>>3036324
Is the film grain in focus? If it's not, then you a scanner issue, if it is in focus then you have a camera issue.
The tree looks more in focus than the people are, so are you sure your shitty eyes didn't miss focus when you took the photo? Especially if it's a manual focus camera, make sure you don't have a wrong diopter set on the viewfinder or something.
>>3036345
well it's my scanner and probably me as well because I am having trouble differentiate blue and green. You should not use my photo as a reference.
>>3036257
I find Acros to be one of the most contrasty films I've used apart from Rolleis retro films.
At the photo shop we usually dev most B/W in XTOL 1+1, but we do Acros and retros in 1+2 specifically to reduce contrast in the negs.
>>3036297
What paper and contrast grade are you printing on? Have you tried with paper you know to be decent, that you didn't just swipe from the communal?

It's alright, not worth importing unless we're talking <$2/roll for 36exp rolls. It's simply Fujicolor 100 branded for business use. 400X on the other hand, I'll be able to post 35mm examples early next week from my first roll. Pushed it to 800. I have 5 pro-packs or it in 120 waiting to be used.
Went ahead and bought a ga645 (picture from the auction). Should have it by early next week. Beyond hyped.
>>3036366
the gs645s would have been better choice
awright lads, been a while since we've done this one.
It's time for scanner wars.
Labscan cucks (noritsu and frontier users) vs shatbedders vs DSLR cuck.
Which one's better and why do you use it, which one takes up the least space/knowledge, which one's quicker, which one's the most idiotproof.
Go on and war to yer hearts content.
>>3036390
fuck off
>>3036392
Nah, you fuck off. I bet you use a lab to scan your film.
Posted in the last thread but got no constructive advice. Looking for quality 35mm film, will be shooting with a Nikon F.
Mostly shooting candids of people, architecture and overall street.
>>3036390
Get the fuck out.
>>3036378
'cept I don't want a 75mm lens, nor any sort of manual focusing/exposure. Gs645 would've been a terrible choice.
>>3036308
>When I have complete conscious control over metering and no hand-holding, my retardation comes to the fore. I feel defeated.
You and me and everybody else, buddy. Just gotta learn how to work yourself: I know I'm tempted to underexpose every time, so I bracket +2, +1, 0. The last one almost never comes out thick enough.
>>3036401
You need to use period correct films for the best results. Even TriX won't work because they changed the formulation. Better start trawling ebay for some kodachrome.
>>3036401
There's so many choices
-Velvia 50 for unreal colors as a slide film
-Ektar for slightly red tinged (it looks great) vivid colors in a negative film (more dynamic range).
-Fuji Natura 1600 for very high speed color negative with very natural colours
-shoot movie film in the appropriate light (daylight for daylight, tungsten for tungsten) for very natural colors as well.
>>3036314
>contrast filters
During printing or during shooting the original negative?
The paper isn't quite blank. There are bits and pieces of the detail I see on the negative.
>>3036354
I'm not sure what paper I'm using other than that it's RC paper. It was just leftovers that someone never claimed in a box that was not its original home. Left a note with my email, asking if it was free to take. All told it was probably a bit over a month.
I bought some fresh paper from some folks at the dark room and have been using that stuff with no issue. Haven't bothered to buy a whole box for printing, because I'd want to be very good at it before committing in cost.
>contrast grade
?
Another element involved is that I'm shooting x-ray film, which is orthochromatic. Makes for a hell of a learning curve in blowing the fuck out of every photo. I mitigate this by using a wratten 44a filter on my light meter, but the transmission and sensitivity graphs of my film and filter don't quite line up. Cutoffs are almost exactly the same, while transmission at specific wavelengths are not exactly the same.
Still much better than taking readings without. Was much harder to meter before, because it's impossible for me to mentally adjust a reading without magic vision telling me how much red and yellow are in the ambient light at any given moment.
I'm saving up for an incident meter now, actually. It's next on the list.
>green grass meters the same as middle grey
What do you mean by this? I thought that the whole point of a spot meter is that you're choosing /what/ is going to be middle grey.
Can anyone answer my questions about DSLR scanning in >>3036297 ?
>>3036411
I don't know what I'm consciously doing wrong here. I try my best to choose what I think is a middle tone of lighting, and always end up wrong. All the more frustrating because I actually handle lighting okay on some shots. Very fucking confusing.
>>3036234
have you guys ever seen a leica m3 go for sale in a thrift?
>>3036459
>I don't know what I'm consciously doing wrong here. I try my best to choose what I think is a middle tone of lighting, and always end up wrong.
That's because you meter C41 negative film for shadows and E6 slides for midtones/highlights (context-sensitive). If you want shadow detail meter for shadows, the simplest concept in film.
>>3036520
This is useful, Kurwa. Thanks. I was trying to do some Ansel Adams shit and choose what exactly I thought I wanted to be the middle grey, and I think I was making some bad choices.
In particular your information explains why my E-6 shots are looking great so far.
I'm going to go print a few more shots I took yesterday. Will come home with the prints and scan in the office scanner. Hopefully the shit from yesterday was properly exposed. Negatives looked okay.
>>3036528
i don't know much of the zone system, but i think that for being done correctely isn't only about metering the shot, but to correct all the tonal range at development/copy taking as a base the zone for which you exposed. also i think it was made thinking more about black and white photography than color.
>>3036471
I saw a Leica IIIf at a antique shop the other day, but the camera was poorly maintained and probably need a deep CLA and a curtain change. And the owner was asking for $320. Good luck selling that piece of junk.
>>3036535
Yeah from my learning about the zone system is for prints not for taking the photo. Taking the photo you want the best tonal range and that's all that matters you can edit it later in the darkroom.
>>3036535
I guess I should have been more clear before. I'm primarily shooting x-ray, which is orthochromatic black and white film. I don't know why people are assuming I'm shooting colour here, especially if I'm making the prints myself.
>>3036459
M8, you just sound like a fucking retard who's outsmarting himself at every turn.
Load some fucking Superia 400 in a 90's point and shoot and fuck off already.

If you're already using a camera that requires handlong and developing xray sheets and yet don't know the basics of metering something has gone extremely wrong somewhere.

This one is at infinity, wide open (f/3.5 on this came), and underexposed, owing to the large amount of sky in the frame, so this is about as bad as the lense will ever look.

I shot a roll of (Lomogrphy) B&W on my Holga and this is what came back. All the shots came out like the right, except for the one on the left. Though it does show "14" running down towards the left side of the frame, but doesn't have (or as pronounced,) the mottled look or spots.
In some ways it's kind of cool, but what the hell happened? Holga lo-fi hipster crappy shit aside, I expect the light leak and fuzzy focus, but not this to overrun the entire roll. Plus this was my first B&W roll and cost more to develop, so I'm kind of bummed.
Only thing I can think of is there was bleed through on the backing paper's print, or it was mistakenly printed on the film side, and that reflected light back to the film.
>>3036654
It's alright, you can always make new friends.
>>3036655
Is this a SuperRes or a stitch? There are shitty artifacts everywhere.
>>3036645
>>3036649
And in these two the lense looks broken there's so much field curvature. I guess it's fit for purpose as a garbage zoom P&S, but I wouldn't bother using it. Also, light your negs better, the falloff at the edges is very distracting.
>>3036659
how long have you had the roll for? really weird bet yea almost looks like the backing was on inside out and reflected the guide markings onto the film?? Idk but it's to be expected I guess shooting random ass lomo film in a holga, I doubt next roll will do the same thing.
>>3036660
It's a stitch, I'm assuming the artifacts are from not resizing but compression from a 130mb file, idk fuck all about digitalizing film and it shows. Might just stick to prints.
I bet the curvature is from my dlsr scan not from the mjuiii itself, I've made prints from the camera and there hasn't been any. I'll definitely have to step my scanning game up a notch.
>>3036663
I just bought the Lomography film the other month, so it's brand new. First thought was light coming through the back window since I use black painters tape to cover it and has that kind of mottled look. But I've never had that problem before, and if it was the case should only have appeared in the center.
I could read the guide marks as normal while using it, so at least that part of the backing was fine. There's also the mottled effect which suggests some kind of irregular reflection.
>>3036659
>bleed through on the backing paper's print
Got it in one, buddy.
But from light, not from the actual ink bleeding.
Your holga is essentially a piece of shit and not suitable for photography, it leaks unwanted light like a sieve, and then doesn't let in enough light when you go to take a photo.
You probably also did some stupid shit like carrying it around in daylight, that's a big nono with garbage cams; keep them in a bag.
It basically means that the light leaking through the back window of the cam contributed an excessive amount of exposure to the film, relative to that which came through the lense.
My guess is that the whole roll is woefully underexposed, but that the shot you took literally of a fucking lightbulb was the only one with enough density on the negative to mask the base fogging coming through the backing paper. If you had properly exposed the film, you might not have seen the numbers at all, but because the processor had to jack the contrast so high in post to get any image at all off your mostly blank film, it's quite prominent.
>tl;dr: tape you holga's window, keep it shielded from the sun as much as possible, use higher quality film with stauncher backing paper and a higher exposure sensitivity (tmax400), shoot in adequate light for your f/8, 1/60 toycam
>>3036668
Very weird, Maybe the backing stuck to the emulsion?
Going to be testing out this Holga GTLR with the Holga Instax Back on this tiny house. Any tips when using this type of camera?
>>3036667
>It's a stitch, I'm assuming the artifacts are from not resizing but compression from a 130mb file
No, the artifacts are from your shitty stitch.
>>3036667
>I bet the curvature is from my dlsr scan
Maybe, but it also appears to be on the film, esp in the first one.
You've got a few issues going on; 35mm is really an inappropriate focal length for copy work, and you aren't stopping down enough.
Getting further away, with a 50 or 100mm, will improve your alignment of the sensor and film parallel to one another, the longer focal length will decrease your depth of field, and thus improve the quality of your backlighting, and the working distance will make you a much happier camper. Also, those lenses will be sharper. The 50's have less distortion and no CA, the 100's have no distortion, better field flatness and higher resolution.

They're really good for action/press shots. Try some rooftopping, get some macros of oncoming trains, document the crystal meth trade in your local area.

Ahhh I see, I popped it into photoshops auto merge. So your saying is a 50mm + extension tubes should be better than a 35mm macro lens? But yeah probably don't need to stitch 4 pictures together for a 35mm frame haha, I print all my b&w anyways, but I'm starting to shoot a lot more colour so I realized I'll have to find a scanning solution as I'm not gonna start R4a printing anytime soon.
>>3036678
A 50mm Macro. The Pentacks-M 50/4 is dirt cheap, try that. No CA, no distortion.

Even though it's not true advice, it's still pretty funny
And old shot on expired Superia.
It was the last shot on the roll. I remember that because I remember taking it out of the camera standing where that shot was taken, and then dropping the roll in the grass.
Spent a half hour looking for it. The dog did not help.
It's one of the rare photos I have where I think less grain would have actually improved it. I usually feel that grain and sharpness don't make a real difference in the snapshits I produce.
>>3036689
Do you think I would have clarified the point if I though that?

Do you have any insights on extension tubes, master scanner?

Credit where it's due; it was Ayya's idea.
More HP5. I think this was in the OM10.
>>3036700
Macro lenses have a flat field of focus which is critical for getting good sharp scans of a flat piece of film. Putting extension tubes on a regular lens means you're using that lens in a way that it wasn't intended to be used, it's not going to have a flat field and super high resolution because that's not what the lens was designed for. You'll get results and maybe they'll be good enough, extension tubes are dirt cheap and nobody is stopping you from just trying it yourself if you don't believe the advice you asked for.
PS I'm not the guy you're responding to and I think DSLR scanning is a retarded waste of time. You can pick up a used Plustek 35mm scanner for pretty cheap and all you have to do is slap your negatives in the holder and push a button to get good consistent results without having to nigger rig a whole contraption.
>>3036705
My Plustek always missed focus on slides
>>3036678
Get the Canon FD 50mm macro. That's what I scan with. Dirt cheap, flat field of view, get the fd25 extension tube made for it and you get 1:1 magnification.

sorry bru new to this.
I just got my first film camera the other day, Memolta XG-M. Before Ive only just used my phone or my digital camera to take pics.

I like Pro 400H too. It has nice colors for skin tones and some other stuff. It has a decent exposure latitude but you still need "good" light to make things look good. It can be inconsistent and a challenge to use but when it works it works. It's also grainy so it's best used on bigger than 35mm.

The XG-M is one of the best starter cameras around, good choice. Minoltas have excellent exposure logic, so as long as you pay attention to what your intended subject is you'll be fine with metering. In high contrast situations swing the camera around at different objects to see what readings the meter gives you and figure out what the proper one should be for your subject.
You can't go wrong with Minolta glass, just stay clear of 3rd party stuff like cheap Vivitars.

It's best practice for sure, but unnecessary for most B&W.
The purpose is not to wash out the antihalo layer, like slavshit said, but to stabilise the temp of your film, tank and reels to the temp of your dev; to soften the emulsion so that it will readily take on the dev, and to pre-wet the film, so that the first contact with the dev isn't so harsh, and doesn't leave visible splotching on larger pieces of film.
But if you're only developing smaller formats, and your developer is going to take more than 5 minutes, and your ambient temp isn't wildly different to your dev temp, then you can very confidently skip it.

That looks exactly like the backing paper of Shanghai Gp3 actually. Never had that happen though (shot several rolls of it in a Holga, too), but I've seen it happen to others. Googling that will help you out.

You're right about this, but I still usually rinse off the dyes and shit until the water runs clear. Developing wastes a bunch of water anyway, it won't hurt to do a good thorough pre-rinse and skipping it won't save much time or effort or water.
>>3036849

See? Was that so hard? I have a question and if you have an actual answer you respond.
I mean I know photographers as a whole are unreasonably elitist and theres some unwritten rule where you're just not allowed to be new or have newbie questions but just answering the question from the start would've been easier than attempting to dish out whatever was served to you when you first started.

Unless you have the chemicals and knowledge needed to do a K-14 process or manage to find a lab that still does the process (don't think there are any left in the world), you're out of luck
>>3037558
Rodinal 1:50 for 15 minutes should be fine.
Fix as per normal.
>>3037561
hey faggot how about you don't post when you don't know shit and spread counterproductive misinformation, huh?
Every 35mm film regardless of process records the latent image by exposing silver halide salts suspended in gelatin and (optionally, for colour processes) bound with various dye couplers and sensitizers. Every development process, bw or colour, begins by developing that latent silver halide image. Every single film emulsion can be developed as a black&white negative, it's just that all the extra layers of shit in colour/slide emulsions make it hard to print/scan the (usually thin) bw image. Sure you can develop kodachrome as a shitty slow bw film, but that's smearing a medieval parchment with a dog turd to get a dick doodle - wasting the base material. Don't post until you know the basics of the stuff you intend to talk about, shitstain.

Then rethink your life choices of paying greedy austrians to rebrand budget emulsions and sell them to you in new boxes under new names.
>>3037574
I've shot a lot of their iso 100 color negative film. It's decent enough.
Film is the only thing you should buy from them really. The cameras are insanely overpriced but if you have an old 110 camera and you want to try it out lomography.com is a good enough place to go for the film.

Any of you shoot HP5 at 3200? This image was HP5 @ 3200 in D-76 1:1 for 25 minutes. Looking to shoot an actual roll soon and develop with some HC-110.

Mine barely looks that good at 400.
I think I just suck at scanning.
>>3037643
Honestly I don't really like HP5 at 400, I think the negatives are quite flat and lifeless. I'm not really using an expensive scanner here either, canoscan 9000f m2.
Maybe try ging it a go at 1600 / 800 and scan then, also make sure you're adding sharpening in lightroom, without that they look pretty dull.
>>3037649
Here's some HP5 at 1600 from a few years ago. It didn't make me want to try 3200.
I used to shoot HP5 a lot, I think it prints really well for a film this speed, but after I exchanged the darkroom for a digital scanner I have come to dislike the film more and more. I'm switching to Delta 400 for my "fast" film of choice now. It's a quite different beast but I like it. You should give it a try.
>>3037656
Here's some Delta 400 at box speed. Haven't tried pushing it yet now I think about it.
I should.
>>3037359
It is Kodak Gold.
>>3037657
Not a fan of either picture but your Delta 400 looks pretty damn good at box speed, I might pick up some on my next film order and give it a go.
The tones on your hp5 look pretty good, what scanner are you using and processing both after scanning and dev?
>>3037662
The scanner is a Plustek 7200.
The jpg is years old so I really don't remember what I did with it. Probably very little.
I think I was scanning with Silverfast at the time.
I scan with an Epson V550 using Epson software now, which I like.
I know the pics are shit, it was mostly about showing what the films look like.

Anyone ever heard of this film? Is it any good?http://www.ebay.com/itm/152437989541?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT#

Ausfags, do you get hit with import fees from ordering overseas? If not, I can totally sell film to ya'll from Japan. Your film prices are just ridiculous. Take whatever price you see on Amazon Japan and add ¥1500 to cover shipping and give me an extra couple bucks. Lemme know if you're interested.

Totally serious. Let me know what you want and I'll look into it. Can only accept paypal. Check the website this guy posted though, maybe it's better? >>3037825
Ah I'll look into their prices and see.
In other news, GA645 arrived. Loaded up a roll of Tri-X only to discover the numbers jump around like crazy when using the select wheel to adjust settings like iso, aperture, data info. Going to shoot the roll tomorrow and send the camera back for a refund. Otherwise, it looks in great shape. :(
>>3037843
Like the colours and how the whole image looks like it's warped.
Can anyone recommend me some 50mm LTM or M mount lenses for around $400? Looking to upgrade my Elmar 50/2.8
Was going to wait for a new FGT, but fuck it.
Ferrania shop opens tomorrow at 6PM, Berlin time. I will not be writing a shitpost for the opening tomorrow.
I plan to write a review of the film, testing it in D76 and likely XTOL or whatever I can find.
Here's the previous two "dispatches" summed up for you folks.
>THE SIGNATURE
>So you folks found some vintage printing masks.
>It fits nicely into your vintage perforator, allowing you to "sign" your shit
>Thinking something that obstructs my full-strip exposures is beautiful.
>SCALING UP
>So you essentially didn't think that the fuckloads of kickstarters = lots of buyers?
>With the new realization that you might actually HAVE buyers you now need to find methods to make for film?
>And now you guys have to do more work to make more film?
Judging by how film prices are going, I can estimate that the price for a roll of film should be around 6-8 euro no more than 10, which should be close to the dollar price in current exchange rates. I was not a kickstarter, so I do not know how their discounting system works for supporters, nor do I care.
>>3037910
what in the fucking fuck are you talking about.
>>3037853
didnt someone tell you in a past thread that those cameras had unreliable electronics?
>>3037910
From what I've heard, P30 is very contrasty in conventional developers. Use the most dilute solution you can. (Unless you want high contrast of course).
Any tricks for pushing with HC110? I've just been using dil B at 20c and results have been ok. However, recently printed some Delta 400 at 800 and the grain was fugly, though the negs printed well otherwise. I guess the T-grain and HC110 aren't best buds.
I've heard stand developing works quite well and I'll probably try it next. I'd like to know about hotter temps especially too. I know some Daido followers have been doing D76 at really hot (~40C) temps to push Tri-x to 1600 so I'm wondering if anyone has experience with doing similar stuff with HC110.
>>3037902
A jupiter-8 50mm f/2 is always a solid toy. Get a hood though, and some 40.5E filters. Prolly run you about 3,50€ in polackistan.
>>3037910
Even 6 eurodollars is too much. You'd have to be a literal retard to pick this up over any available emulsion that isn't Fomapan.

Will it be calibrated for the rangefinder on my M3? I know a lot of Soviet lenses don't work so well on M mount cameras
>>3038003
No idea. My copy focuses perfectly on feds and a zorki, but I've heard of Sonnars going a bit off with age. YMMV. More likely you'll have a cheapo LTM-to-M adapter that doesn't do the RF linkage properly.
I'm only half joking, by the way. Soviet shit tends to be 45%-60% of Leica for 10% price. Doesn't help if you want 100% Leica.

Got a $50 card from B&H so decided to pick up 5 rolls of 400 T-Max and 5 rools of 100 T-Max. I've never used this film but I like the pretty smooth grain it has online. Did I fuck up or is this a good film?

You'll be happy with T-Max, it's great. Kodak wouldn't still be making it if it wasn't good

Yeah, from what I've see it looks pretty good. I've just seen in a few places that people are trash talking it.
How dangerous are black and white film chemicals? I'm referring to D-76 / HC-110 and Ilford Rapid Fixer / Kodak Fixer, we could also throw in Ilfostop.

>>3038615
Take it to your bathroom to develop it.
But if you have to use a lab then I think Costco is usually better. It's an entirely automatic process so your film should theoretically come out the same anywhere as long as the person working the lab isn't too retarded to press a few buttons. Some labs these days just give you the scans and throw away your negatives so make sure they don't do that. No matter where you go, expect the scans to be terrible.

yes.
shoot with confidence. film takes huge abuse and mishaps, and even then, still looks awesome.
>>3038799
You can double check it with a smartphone meter app if you're worried. Film can handle quite a bit of overexposure but not a lot of underexposure, so err on the side of overexposure
This is 800 speed film accidentally exposed as if it were 100 speed. So 3 stops overexposed, and the roll came out fine

I bought it with the intention of selling. After I finish this roll of Provia its going up for sale. It's a nice camera but the ergonomics aren't great. It's the first camera I've owned that feels like I have to hold really tight to prevent it from slipping out if my hand. The little grip on the side is useless and that's a deal breaker for me since I go for multi-hour walks and hold the camera the whole time.
Other than that it's good though. I'd decide whether you want AF and auto exposure modes to help determine which camera you'd prefer.

you didnt tell us what you paid for it, what lens, or what camera you bought, so im gonna make a fuckload of assumptions and say that youll most likely get the same lens in better condition for around 20$, so dont sweat it.
>>3039159
I... I paid 99 euros for a pentax k1000 with a 55mm lens,
but I removed the lens, and that shit is inside the body
>>3039167
They mentioned dust, but that looks like a crack to me, right?
So I guess that black shit will show up on photos then?
>>3039182
>They mentioned dust, but that looks like a crack to me, right?
Is the black shit on the mirror? It's hard to tell what exactly I'm looking at in your potato photo, can you get some better shots?
>>3039186
Well, I guess? Not on the lense at least.

That's some weird shit, it sort of looks like a mixture between a crack and fungus growth. I'd definitely just request a refund and get your money back, in future try sticking to listing with detailed photos and descriptions
>>3039208
Well, got it from a photostore and not a private person. So it seemed pretty legit. Will just send them the picture and see what they say...
>>3039200
That looks like prism de-silvering to me. I had a Canon FTb that had the same issue.
It wont show up on your pictures, its up to you whether you can deal with it being in the viewfinder all the time.
>>3039216
If it doesn't show up, I think I will just keep it. To much work returning it.
>>3038575
These prices are actually really good cheers, just a bit worried about buying from Thailand and getting fake film ya know
>>3039246
Don't be. I've bought from that seller a lot over the years.
>>3039163
>K1000 for 55 euro
So this is the state of film photography now..
How to clean negatives?
Developed a roll of film for the first time today and dropped it on the floor after taking it out of the dev tank (tank with a film apron). I immediately washed it again but can see lots of small fibers and gunk when dslr scanning.
Also, what's the best process to dlsr-scan 120 film? Now I'm taking 8 photos of a frame and stitching them together, which is overkill - but necessary with my inverted 50mm.
>>3039257
It was 99 euros...
>>3036647
amazing. color iso boner
>>3039219
keep the camera and ask for a refund anyways. fight for your money, you beta cuck.
>>3039163
why do you even buy a k1000 in the first place??
Considering how many good film cameras are out there, paying 100€ for a camera that was basic even back then is a very stupid decision.
>>3039163
Why the fuck is it that most shitters always go for the k1000? It's even more prevalent with n00bs.
It's overpriced and a Nikon FM is far superior, and in 99% of cases, cheaper.
>>3039318
>Because a fucking nigs in this very general recommended me
i always shill for spotmatics because thats the one you should have bought. but you listened to the wrong faggot.
>>3039318
>You cant ask for refund, only to return it (or so it seems)
you can always ask for refunds. but you seem like a fearful fag, so why bother giving you advice you wont take.
>>3039340
>Yeah, and it was a tripfag...
lmaoooooo why would you not block all trips on general principle?
serves you right.
>>3039340
>How would you do it?
refund option activates when the estimated time for delivery is over. you go to the Purchase History section and say you didnt get the camera and ask for a refund. be persistent, and youll get the money. ebay sides with the buyer no matter how silly the situation is, just keep asking for your money.
>>3039346
Well, to late now. Already sent the complain that the item was damaged
>>3036234
Nearly every roll I shoot has 1 or 2 frames that only come out about 50 / 75 percent the rest is black. My camera is a Minolta X-7A in near mint condition so I don't think anything could be wrong with the shutter. It's only on a few frames and often is right near the first 5 shots. Thoughts?
>>3039473
I just looked at my negatives and it seems that it is always on frame # 1.
>>3039480
It's the light bleeding in from where you loaded the film
>>3039482
That's what I thought at first but it's on the opposite end for one and there is a frame (0) right before it that's perfectly/fully exposed.
>>3039502
How about you suck my dick, I know how to load my camera asshat.
Frame 0 and 1 are absolutely fine, frame 3 gets cucked to fuck.
>>3039515
shutter machine broken
>>3039525
Doesn't make sense if it's a bad shutter. I've been using the camera for nearly 2 years now without issue and every single time this issue comes up, it's on the 1st or second frame and doesn't happen again for the entire roll.
New thread >>3039531
>>3039515
Lel, you problem is that it's a menelta, as expected.
Your camera is just broken m8.
>>3039548
Yeah, just trying to see what's up with it but am just going to keep shooting my M6 instead. Oh well.
Is 460$ USD too much for a bronica etrsi with grip and 50mm, 75mm PE lenses?
>>3039340
>And I dont see the seller agreeing to give me the money back without sending the camera. How would you do it?
>go to purchase history
>click "return this item"
>select reason for return "item not as described"
>upload the photos of the damage
>request that the seller covers the return postage cost
>return item
It's piss easy and you will get a full refund including the original posting costs you paid, and on top of that the seller has to pay for additional return postage.
>>3039583
Yeah, this is what i've done
>>3039583
I guess I can also be a super cunt and just ask paypal for my money back.
Anyway, someone recommended the Nikon FM. Any other cameras to recommend?
>>3039723
If you've the money to spare, you can go for an FM2/n or FM3. I wouldn't recommend the professional F1,2... series as they are bulky and not great for beginners. But they are quite reliable.
If you don't mind batteries, I can recommend you an N90S/F90X. It's a tad heavier than an FM, but after a while its ergos and your arm muscles reduce it to nothing. It's my workhorse camera and I truly recommend it, though it may be a tad noisy.
If you don't want to nikonfag, a Pentax SF1 or SF1n if you can find one would work nicely. An SF10 is almost half the price, though it lacks some functionalities(such as dx only iso) that don't matter much for beginners. Plus it should be compatible with your K1000's lens, provided you can keep, and it isn't much of a departure from a digital. Even has built-in flash. Though I haven't used them, I've heard good things about Pentax Zx and Lz cameras. The Zx is more a manual camera, while the Lz is a more "modern" camera with features you'd also find in a digital(built-in flash, rotary icon-based program dial) better suited for users switching from cheap digital.
Most of these cameras don't go over 100 body-only, and lens included typically don't go over 200.
Next time you look for a camera do research. Look a round at the literal thousands available, and choose one that suits you. And also do research on who you're buying from and make sure they have a good rep.
>>3039897
I took the K1000 outside, and I dont see the fungus when I use it, so I think I will just keep it. It also looks brand new from the front, so it will be a nice shelf thing if I hate it. And 99 euros is what you spend on a night out in norway, so, yeah.
I like the nikon FM series, but I've been looking at the Olympus OM-1. Might get that one...
But Idk, will just use the k1k and see how the photos turn out.
shot some Ilford xp2 recently in hong kong
