These are both abject garbage and I'm not sure why you (or me) are wasting any mental effort on it whatsoever, but she's right. They're both as shaky as each other, but the less centred but no distracting face and bollard in the bottom corner wins.

Shocking

retard here, how do I git gud at shooting at night?

>>4372712
Good night photography is 30% tripod and 70% metering. The use of a cable release is presumed. So basically, have a good tripod, and then use an external meter and learn how and what part of the scene to meter in order to get the effect you want. For daytime shooting there is theoretically a "correct" way to meter, but when shooting at night how you meter the scene is a much a creative choice as how you frame it, and what film you use.

Oh, and if you insist on being a pleb and sending your film off to someone else to develop, at the very least don't let the fucking lab scan your film for you. Scan and post-process yourself. The guy running the Noritsu has no idea what vibe you were going for, and will fuck with your images.

>>4372712
do this
>>4372714
if you want to be a retard

just shoot at f 1.8, and the lower speed that you know that you are not going to fuck it up, shoot black and white film, throw in for one to two hours in rodinal

The correct advice is to get an aperture priority Nikon (FE, FA, EM, FM3a) or Olympus (OM10, 20, 30, 40) and use the self timer on a tripod.
No need to overthink it, shit just works, even shooting f/11 under moonlight.
Most other cameras will fail to meter actually long exposures, which means that unless you want to shoot wide open (and there's still a fair amount of light) you're shit outta luck/left guessing with a cable release and a calculator.
Reciprocity is mostly bullshit, just ignore it.
Make sure your camera has fresh-ish batteries.
Check your exposure is finished by looking through the viewfinder and seeing if the mirror has come down, not by touching the camera. In addition to great metering, these particular cameras all pre-fire the mirror when using the self timer, reducing camera shake.
Apparently Pentacks LX's are also good for this, but I've not used one. Oly OM2's and OM4's should also be ok, but in my experience those cameras are always fucking broken so I don't ever bother using them, the cheaper 2-digit series are better cameras imho.

If you want to shoot with a handheld camera, my advice definitely changes.
If you don't want to use flash, you'll simply have to buy the best lenses you can afford (fast aperture/image stabilised/both) and just get good at focusing and holding still. You should always meter manually in low light when you're moving, as whatever light sources there are will always throw off auto exposure depending on which direction you're aiming/your composition. Meter off an object that's lit roughly normally for the scene, and decide how underexposed you think you can get away with, and just keep the settings the same until the light changes.
Lower your standards for what is acceptably sharp/exposed.
Expect to waste a lot of film.

If you have a brain/want sharp, well exposed photos, then my advice changes again.
Use a goddamned flash.
The easiest way to do this is with a point and shoot, preferably an older one with infrared autofocus and a prime lense.
They grab good focus quickly even in total darkness, and with a faster aperture lense you'll get reasonable reach from the built in flash.
All of your photos will come out looking the exact same though.
If you'd like to exercise a little creative control, then you should just use the newest SLR system you can get your hands on, with an expensive first party TTL flash with an af beam on it, and again the expensive lenses with faster apertures and/or IS.
A Canon EOS camera with a 430EX is probably the cheapest way to do this. Put the camera in Manual, and set a shutter speed slower than 1/125 and a moderate aperture. Bounce your flash off walls, ceilings, etc and check the little LED on the back of the flash to make sure it goes green, indicating sufficient exposure was achieved.

what's the story with fuji slide film right now? i thought that they were going to axe their production of it but it seems that they're still manufacturing it, albeit very small batches

File: Foma 400 Contrast Tests.jpg (4.6 MB, 3300x5000)

4.6 MB JPG

So I was doing some random testing and figured I'd share the results for anyone who's interested. I shot the same scene eight times on Arista EDU/Fomapan 400 4x5 sheet film (rated at 320), two with no filter, two with a yellow filter, two with an orange filter, and two with a red filter. I tried to keep the aperture between f/22 and f/29 (f/22 is supposedly where my lens is sharpest), primarily adjusting shutter speed to compensate for filter factor. Lens was the 210mm f/6.8 Caltar.

I then developed one of each in XTOL with a 1+1 dilution and replenished stock XTOL, respectively. For the 1+1 I used a development time of 9:30 at 20c, and for the stock I used a development time of 7:00 at 20c. These were the massive dev shart times for Foma 400 at 400. Unfortunately there is only a published time for Foma 400 shot at 320 for the 1+1 dilution but not for stock, so I developed them both at 400 in order to keep things as consistent as possible.

The purpose of all this was twofold: firstly, to determine whether the cost savings from using the replen method was worth it, or whether there was a significant enough difference in sharpness and contrast to make me stick with 1+1. Secondly, to evaluate how the film performs with my filters, and determine whether there was a significant benefit to using the red filter over the orange filter, as my light meter can do 2 stops of compensation but not 3, which makes using the red filter more annoying.

>>4372862
And yes, I am aware there is a light leak on the stock/orange filter image. The film holder responsible has been thrown out.

>>4372862
huh, wonder where the stripes went on the american flag on left yellow pic

>>4372865
filters still let light through so when you expose for the filter fact, light that makes it through gets overexposed

>>4372869
This, the sun was hitting the flag bang on in that shot, so it was one of the brighter parts of the scene. And the yellow filter has a filter factor of 2/3, vs 1 for the orange, but in practice the camera settings the meter gave me ended up being the same, so the yellow shots are probably just slightly more exposed vs the others.

>>4372862
>completely different clouds in every shot
>still barely noticeable differences
honestly my takeaway is that I'm not missing anything by devving everything in 1+100 rodinal for an hour and giving zero fucks about "recommended" technique

so basically you neutralize the negative image with the bnw chems, and when you pull it out of the tank and expose it to light, you saturate the rest of the film that was never hit by light, this is what becomes the new image after you develop in c41 and wash away all the silver with the blix

ah you were already using slide film then, I didn't register it was Sensia 200
I thought you were using C-41 film and making positives through some color reversal process
I've heard about those before but never tried

Does anyone know a good method of making positives out of regular negative black and white film? I've heard of that two-developments method where you bleach the film and expose it to light and shit
Any recommendations on how to do it?
I've only found the process in that Ilford page on "reversal processing"

Do you really need the resolution of a stitched image for that picture? Pick your battles.

If that’s the one at the Sydney store I was looking at a month ago you’ll get a better deal by carefully shopping with Japanese eBay dealers.

it's not a matter of resolution, the lab sent me this image unstitched because it's medium format and that's how they do it
but why shouldn't I aim for stitching "that picture"? is there something wrong with it?

This one's at Chadstone, but there is the black M4-2 in Sydney which caught my intertest too.

>>4373123
Check if it's been CLAd recently, if so then who by and if you can get the report. The warranty means fuck all because if it's needs a repair in that time the camera will be sent to Germany for a minimum of 6 months and you will be angry at that. There are other great options in terms of stores. Times camera in Victoria and Peters cameras on Instagram who both have high reputation.
In terms of it being an M6, I would stay away from it. It's largely a meme. I assume you will be taking actual photos with this and not just rocks, leaves and stop signs. You don't need the meter. An M3 M2 or M4 are much better and cheaper. For glass just buy a voigtlander lens to start.

>>4373041
You can make slides out of regular print film too, you'll just end up with an orange mask instead of a clear one.

Heres the recipe I based it off. I used stand dev rodinal instead of hc110 (prolly why mine is so foggy)

Film photography is an intellectual and artistic pursuit that your childish fun makes a severe and undue mockery upon. Show some respect to those with higher aspirations than you, sir.

>>4373311
No, I think you're "into" analog photography because you treat it like some sort of accessory. You just want to strap a block around your neck to pose. Instead of finding a subject to take pictures of, you want to BE the subject.
And I just find that whole mindset insanely pathetic.

Thanks. Out in the boonies you can find these wrecks in the weirdest places. This one was next to a forest tractor trailer, not even close to an actual road. They seem to always be 50-60's models, I'm not really sure why but I reckon back then you either didn't get anything from bringing your car to a junk yard or even had to pay for them to take it, so you might as well just abandon it somewhere in the woods. Funny thing is if they'd kept the car in a barn or something, it'd be worth quite a bit of money these days depending on the model.

>>4373306
>Why would you ever use a range finder?
because you have no interest in macro/telephoto/uwa boomergraphy and prefer to see outside the lens FOV to anticipate action better

it also makes using colored filters for black and white photography enjoyable, because you can actually fucking see.

>>4373457
You realize that by being mad over the fact that other people are obsessed with their image and conflating identity and products, you are doing the thing they want you to do correct? You are obsessing over their image, just not in a positive way. You are perpetuating of the cycle, not radically rejecting it.

If you really wanted to hurt his feelings, you simply wouldn't care if someone uses a Leica or a Roland or a Lamborghini or whatever. Being indifferent to displays of consumerist status symbols is the only way to reject them. Giving them negative attention equally feeds their ego as much as positive attention

You should really be less concerned with what others are doing.

What makes them particularly "fun" to you, other than the brand tag?

>>4373562
Smallish, feel nice to use, good for zone focused quick snaps, the viewfinder gives you extra room to see anything coming into frame to name a few fun things about them.

Your obsession with brands is amusing.

New to this, I'd like to scan and process my own negatives without relying on a lab. Could you please recommend me a scanner for negatives under ~1k? Besides the optical resolution, what else matters to you in a scanner? I don't think I care about automated / batch scanning.

>>4373591
get a digital camera and a macro lens

>>4373591
a minimal valoi kit for your format (you dont need the transporter or brush or shit, just the holder light and stand), literally any camera that can use FE or EF mount lenses, and the sigma 70mm f2.8 art macro.

Lab scanners are 20mp tops and shit out 8 bit images with extra digital "grain". It doesn't matter how bad the camera, ie: canon rebel is, basically everything is better than a lab scanner.

>why the red halos happen

>While we are talking the film’s background, it is important to mention that 400D is a departure for Cinestill. Previously the company had been adapting Kodak Vision3 motion picture film for still photography by removing the remjet layer that motion picture films possess. 400D on the other hand was specifically manufactured without the remjet layer.

that's an interesting option, thank you! I'm not sure though, my digital camera is 20mp, and the sigma 70mm macro is about $500, but there are dedicated desktop scanners around that price and I wouldn't need the light table and stand etc., why wouldn't it be better to get a scanner? is it possible to get one with enough optical resolution at that price point?

>>4373266
They’re dollarydoos so it’s bite quite as much as you think

>>4373320
Because rangefinders are fun, because I like what is available in M mount, because from time to time it’s handy to have a meter, because I find the design more comfortable than a Canon 7, because it reminds me of my P49 handgun, and because it makes you assblasted.

>The correct advice is to get an aperture priority Nikon (FE, FA, EM, FM3a) or Olympus (OM10, 20, 30, 40) and use the self timer on a tripod.
any advice for a noob that mainly shoots at night on something that will meter properly (like an OM10, they seem affordable) as opposed to buying a meter?
I have a pentax spotmatic SP that i meter with my phone, it's been fun so far but I want to either get a camera that will do it for me, or a legit meter.
the m42 mount seems okay for affordability on my pentax, but would moving to the OM mount on an olympus SLR be better long term? Lenses seem just as cheap and easy to find

It really is not lol, but I appreciate the sentiment. But it's just a (not very good) family snapshot, so I can't even show it properly. Here's a quick preview from flatbed anyway, sorry to disappoint.
I was fooling around a lot but I do have a few ok frames on this roll. I'll post them later once I run them through Coolscan and fix up a little.
Oh and it's Kodak 6556 in TD-3, standard dilution, procedure B for 24 minutes.

thats interesting, thanks anon
pic related is also double-x at 800, in rodinal 1:50 16 minutes at (or near enough) 20C but im not really satisfied with the grain
pic related is an unedited scan from a roll i shot earlier this year according to above
maybe its the scanner too, not having enough sharpness or resolution, maybe the grain is satisfactory once i get around to enlarging them
sorry for blogposting, ill make sure to try 18C for 18 minutes next time

My odyssey to do some kind of macro on film on the cheap continues with this $25 craigslist find. Now to put a roll through it and find out what (if anything) is wrong with it. I've found a couple of decade old forum posts talking about this particular bellows lens with some solid photos attached but I'm also going to have to investigate what settings will actually work out and about since I'm pretty confident this bad boy isn't just a sunny 16 type of shooter.

have you checked for lightleaks and pinholes?
also look up how to calculate for exposure compensation

>>4373907
Ultra based. You need to use bellows compensation calculator to properly meter your shots. Check art of foto app. It's free and has all that stuff.

>>4373907
Unless it has ttl metering, but you should still use an external spot meter.

>>4373911
light leaks idk, but the body is in very good shape and the meter appears functional. as to pinholes it passed the test of a dark room and flashlight around the extended bellows with the lenscap on, but obviously the real test will be once I have film in the camera. the guy I got it from said it was his uncle's and he used it to photograph slides, it also has an attachment for a flash unit to sit on the front of the lens off to the side (which I took off to inspect the actual lens quality since there was an 81A filter as well).

>>4373912
I'll definitely check it out. depending on what sort of exposure comp i'll need to be doing I may have to run out and get some higher speed film I guess, i'd really love to be able to use this walking around but reality may dictate this one to be a home/staged shooter.

>>4373921
You may be able to use it handheld midday or with flash. Bellows look to be around 5 inches?, which is 1 stop compensation for a 100mm lens, and 1:1 magnification.

If you get a lens with a shorter focal length you can get much higher levels of magnification.

>>4373921
>i'd really love to be able to use this walking around but reality may dictate this one to be a home/staged shooter.
you need LOTS of light for macrophotography and you need the camera to be VERY still
I don't think it'll be something to carry around and shoot
this will very probably require a tripod

>>4373925
>>4373930
15cm/~6in of bellows, the calculator >>4373912 recommends tells me that's about 1-1.3 stops of compensation which should be quite manageable in the f/8-16 range as long as I stick with 400+ speed film I reckon. also wow I completely didn't consider using a different lens but my 50mm f/2 will absolutely be something I use on this, though it will definitely need to be on a tripod since its going to be unable to get anything crisp if it isn't as tight as it will go judging from a quick look through the lens.

>>4373931
one day I hope to reach these heights

>>4373931
I'm not talking about weight, I'm talking about not moving a milimeter when shooting

>>4373931
What even is that?

>>4373937
Just remember that smaller apertures will quickly soften your image. Not so bad on large format, but it will make a huge difference for 35mm. Welcome to macro.

My neighbor was having a garage sale, I got all three of these for 20 dollars ish (total). They are in perfect working condition.

Just got some 120 film and cut the edges of the spool off with a scissors to load it in the Duaflex. I'm going to enjoy taking some photos on a camping trip I'm going on soon.

>it will happen to you!

Nophoto because I just sent my rolls to get developed.

Do you guys find yourselves trying to replicate film on your digital photos? Beyond the colors or whatever I think there's something about the pics I get out of film I can't seem to get in my digital pics, it's a skill issue but I can't pinpoint what. It's not the grain or the IQ that's some nerd shit, it's the feel like maybe I just don't feel as inspired when shooting digital.

does this happen to you guys?

>>4373998
That makes sense. The system is very impressive. It's very boomer in a way.

Do you think he switched to a d850 eventually, or did he get some sense and go full mftard?

Absolutely, I feel the same way. Ive got rolls getting developed so I went out to shoot digital today while I wait. Dont get me wrong, I love that it helps me get out of the house and explore when I dont have any film to shoot. However, im never really ever satisified with the images I get out of it and I cant figure out why. I still like the photos and enjoyed shooting them, but I cant help but think it would look better on film. Trying to replicate film on digital is a never ending chase. Heres an example from today shot on my Canon 5D Mk3.

>>4374032
the colors are really nice
but personally I think adding that adding grain to digital photos to replicate film stupid

>Do you guys find yourselves trying to replicate film on your digital photos?
That's what made me want to go analog. I used Dehancer (still do) to replicate different film stocks. I also still use my Fujifilm and its film simulations. But funnily enough, the more I shoot analog, the less I like simulating grain when shooting digital. Still like the colors from film simulations over how the RAW files look tho.

>>4374005
i only own a shitty fuji xe camera because i tried the camera scanning meme, but i literally have not turned it on for like 8 months. im gonna sell it and officially own no digital cameras (other than some ccd's lying around, which i dont use either)

>>4374005
no, the colors in my digital pictures are dull and sterile but I can't bring myself to filter-rape it because it makes me feel like the kind of clout-chasing instagram faggot that buys a fuji x100

so I just shoot film and the colors look good straight out of the scanner

That's at least one too many of the same subject, but I haven't settled on which one I like the most yet.
I happy with the technical aspect of how this one turned out though, 300mm on a shitty non-VR Sigma zoom lens, 1/8th second shutter, camera just propped up on some rocks.
That's all! I shot some Gold 200 after that (it was beautiful golden hour if you couldn't tell), but I haven't sent it off to a lab yet.

Nb. this film stock (x556 aka Kodalith), when developed as intended with lith developer, has virtually zero halftones. But with the right developer (eg. RLC or TD-3) and procedure, while still contrasty, it can give nice pictorial quality. It's fun to push film past its limits like that.
It was used extensively for backlit animation sequences in the original TRON movie, except they worked with 20x12 inch sheets, and not the puny 35mm lol.

This guy has a collection of these (I got the images from there), pretty neat:
https://www.comicartfans.com/galleryroom.asp?gsub=150701
>With multiple layers of high-contrast, large format positives and negatives, this process required truckloads of sheet film and a workload even greater than that of a conventional cel-animated feature. The Kodalith was specially produced as large sheets by Kodak for the film and came in numbered boxes so that each batch of the film could be used in order of manufacture for a consistent image. However, this was not understood by the filmmakers and, as a result, glowing outlines and circuit traces occasionally flicker as the film speed varied between batches. After the reason was discovered, this was no longer a problem as the batches were used in order and "zinger" sounds were used during the flickering parts to represent the computer world malfunctioning as Lisberger described it.
Bravo Nolan!

I like how these all have unequivocally manmade elements like the power cables and towers (and human interventions in the environment like the the pathway and even the monoculture and pasture) and yet feel so devoid of any life
it feels as if there are no animals in there, no other types of plants apart from the single certain crop used in the monocultural landscape
it all feels so structural
in the sense of a structure that we have made but never come back to, it's just kept there, monitored from afar
some people even pretend they're autonomous – in a completely fetishist fashion, as if objects were operated by themselves.
it's not meant to be kept around, it's like the underwater cables of internet we lay throughout the oceans and never looked back at them (as individuals, as someone actually laying eyes at the cables. They were never seen again, never looked at by anyone anymore)
consequently they also seem devoid of time, could be structures of 10, 20, some of them 50 years ago

I wish there weren't people in this one >>4374179
in my comprehension of the series they don't belong
monoculture as abandoned technology is eerily beautiful
would be one of the best in the series with the rich texture from the irregular terrain (which is somehow "flat" too because every little mountain has the same height, as if they were smushed by a giant glass from above)
even as a single photo I don't like the people there, they draw too much attention and I can automatically "hear" them
in all of the other photos you can almost hear that particular sound of complete silence if not for only the wind blowing in a vast space
not in this one (at least not without covering the people with your thumb; then you can clearly get it)

loved the first three I quoted, good job
