I'll use the massive dev chart app as well
and probably a bluetooth earbud in one ear to listen to music and get the sound notifications from the app
first one sheet to see if everything works fine
then I'll try doing the other 5 sheets divided in 2 sessions: one with 2 sheets and the next one with 3 sheets if the previous 2 come out fine

btw question for LF fags
>focus on near, swing/tilt on far
or
>focus on far, swing/tilt on near
?
because I've heard both and don't know which it is
tried focusing on near and swinging to get the farthest point as well, doing this back and forth some 3 or 4
after trying and giving up and getting everything back to zero some 3 times, of course
it's my first time doing this, but I think it worked out
could be better, I believe, because I tried swinging while also having the monorail sloped down

anyway, any tips for how to combine movements? e.g. swing and tilt

will post some photos from a recent trip
anyone feel free to offer criticism

It all essentially comes down to visualizing/understanding the schiempflug principle. I think starting at nearest object in focus works a little better, but either way probably works. Also one thing to keep in mind is that you should open your aperture all the way while finding your focal plane and then stopping down once you get your movements all set.

If you aren't obsessed with maximum sharpness and don't mind losing a stop or two to smaller apertures it is worth checking a calculator to see if your hyperfocal distance gets everything you want in focus without movements.

One thing I have noticed using my clear glass back standard is that you still need to focus on distant subject at higher apertures carefully if you want them very sharp. I have also noticed that heat/atmospheric effects will often destroy all fine sharpness.

Another interesting observation I've noticed is that DoF is actually more of a gradient that trails into unsharpness rather than a hard stop. Maybe obvious, but the calculators give you specific distances and it only sorta works like that...

Nice pics btw. I like >>4392096 best.

thanks for the compliment, btw

>all the photos in the thread before yours

>>4392105
good light, sharp subject, it's "a cliché" shooting corner buildings but most photos like those are shit. You managed to have a nicely done one, I like it
great colours too
>>4392108
I think this would benefit from being a little higher, covering less of the ground on the front, cutting off the first 4 lines of tiles and getting a little bit more space on top
good lighting as well, and nice contrast between inside and out (brute/delicate, grays and hi-vis orange/colourful, industrial/organic)
>>4392109
I like the place but for me it doesn't work out as a photo
>>4392110
this concrete slab on the front contributes nothing to the photo
should have gone closer to cut it out of frame
good light and very comfy place, well executed shot but the subject is uninteresting to me personally

>>4392194
It gets a lot harder for macro once you start pushing higher magnifications. 1:1 is about the same once you've gotten a hang of it. There's some weird stuff that happens when you start tilting and swinging but recomposing is usually all you need to do.

There will be a point if you keep increasing magnification where large swings of the focus dial won't look like they're doing anything. That is when you need to use clear glass + loupe.

It made me become increasingly neurotic and hesitant, and I'd shoot less and less without getting anything in return. I love shooting color and large format color photography is world of hurt, taking a bad photo on an expensive sheet would scare me stiff and in the end I'd forgo a promising scene and shoot something bland as fuck instead. And it made me want to head out less because it was always such a pain in the ass hauling all that junk along, which is why I feel I haven't gotten anything done in the last few years. 90% of the shots I like taken with the view camera were shot with the 6x9 roll film back and not on sheet, so I might as well head back to doing picrel where I clearly belong. What do I even need all that resolution for, I don't even print shit.

hmm got it
doing macro and applying tilts and swings for the first time all at once was hard but I learned a lot
was using a good loupe but still with ground glass

got it, thanks for the honest response
the "expensive" aspect of it makes me cautious not to make any mistakes, and I like doing everything carefully regardless if it's 35mm, medium format or now with large format
but being cautious is not the same as being paranoid
in the end it's just film, man
sometimes you'll end up wasting it

I went almos 2 months without shooting with my RB67
that >>4392264 was my first shot with it in the trip, and immediately after I shot it I saw I metered the light and everything but I didn't set the camera accordingly, so it was wildly underexposed
it's 120 Ektachrome
in a 6x7, so 10 shots per roll
shit's expensive
I just went "fuck, gotta be careful" and took another shot of the same scene now with the right settings

No. I was setting up the camera and testing right there. Sheeps, water and trees today.

I'm using my sharp 300mm lens to demonstrate the difference. Kind of a pain to use an 85mm equivalent for what I'm shooting, but that's part of the fun.

Another six from today. I feel like something went wrong with these because they aren't as sharp as I expected. Gotta do some testing. I'm still pretty happy with some them regardless.

Using a fresnel without a ground glass is a little too imprecise and annoying. I will stick with the binocular reflex viewer and ground glass back for framing.

Last one. Hope I didn't damage your corneas too badly.

I think that the sharpness issue is from either the old film holders I'm using or the ground glass back may have poor tolerances compared to the more modern sinar I'm used to using. I've gotten significantly sharper images at similar apertures with this lens and film combo. New camera, new problems, fun.

I have them on the ground glass that I normally use for framing, but you can only view the image with a loupe through clear glass for critical focus. The grid lines just get in the way at that point.

Kodak literally invented ektar specifically for taking photos of niggers you jive ass cracka mofuckin FOO. Mo like you wasting perfectly good nigga film takin pictures of flowers.

>>4392546
this but unironically depending of the skin tones you are trying to photograph:


Crackas = Portra
Spics/Chinks = Gold, Pro Image
NIGGERS = Ektar

>>4392548
Ektar and slide film
pretty much all slide films get along absurdly well with darker skin tones

what would lads suggest for shooting the Xmas season: Tri-X pushed to 800 or 5222 pushed to 400, both can be deved with Rodinal or Tmax Developer

>>4392570
I prefer Double-x over Tri-x, and you can comfortably push it to 800
so i'd go with 5222 @800, since you'll probably mostly shoot indoors

>>4392581
alright, I'll try 5222 @800 in my Olympus 35RC

Bros I splurged 2k on a home scanning setup, am I cooked?

>>4392593
Yes. You could have gotten an awesome darkroom setup and lots of paper for that price.

hi anons so I bought a minolta xg1 at the thrift store recently. it was shooting fine until I got about halfway through my roll. I'll take a pic and the shutter will open right away but take like 2 seconds to close.

i'm sure it's a relatively simple fix but i'm a noob and don't know if i should just rewind my roll and try to clean it or if it's another reason.

here's a pic from my shitty vivitar ic 101

>>4392605
what film? It's got phoenix vibes but sharper. Love me some phoenix
>>4392613
>i'm sure it's a relatively simple fix
lol why? Put a fresh battery in that's the only "simple fix." If that don't do it it's probably fucked

>>4392614
i had new batteries in it at the start of the roll and it was fine do they go that fast?

>>4392614

>>4392615

>>4392617
ah nice I got some of that in the fridge, I should shoot it

>>4392094
I'm not sure how bad of an idea it is to get into film photography and flash photography at the same time (coming from digital)
But I've got a Minolta SRT101 from eBay that came with a Brilliant 505 flash.
I wanted to take some pics at our New Years celebration, but that's going to be indoors and my 200 film would need stupid long exposure times according the the camera's light meter, so I figured I might aswell bring the flash.

My question is, how do I meter correctly for the flash? It has a little wheel on the back (see this random video, I can't upload a pic of it right now) but I'm not sure if that's for metering or how it works
https://youtu.be/SSBbn0pwCk8?t=21
I don't mind if my pictures are a bit overexposed, it'll be my first roll of film after all, but I'd still like to try my best to get it right.

>>4392420
Nice. How was it?

>>4392619
Can't see the sensor on the flash but seems to be a thyristor one, meaning that the little dial will be everything that you need to adjust. Look for the DIN equivalent (I can't see on the video if it has ASA/ISO) of your film speed, set the aperture for the distance you want to cover with the flash based on the dial and remember to set your camera to the flash sync speed.

That is.

>>4392619
push the fuck out of your film if its black and white. idk how color works.

>>4392623
pretty easy, actually
I tought i was gonna get scratches everywhere and fucked up emulsions from touching it when developing but it's nice turning on the lights and finding out everything worked out just fine
I'll take more care with lightsources next time
The bathroom LED bulb keeps a barely perceptible light on even when off, probably a fucking capacitor in it
I'll change the lightbulb and if it continues I'll just remove it whenever I develop film
I went to the shop today to get it all scanned

>>4392619
>read both your camera's and your flash's manual
>make sure the camera works
>shoot a roll with it before new year celebration to see if it works, check for lightleaks and get used to it
>shoot said roll using flash under light conditions similar to those you'll have in NYE
fiddling with a camera you've never used before in a medium you're not familiar with while also using a flash you don't even know how it works in fucking new year's eve is pretty much asking for a shitty day with shitty results

>>4392671
That's not it, it's becase there's a live wire running alongside a disconnected wire, which is inducting small amount of current in the disconnected one. A capacitor wouldn't last more than a few seconds at most.

I was looking directly at the slide with a good quality loupe and was genuinely impressed by the image quality
not to be a pixelpeeping faggot (or grainpeeping faggot in this case), but look at the scan >>4392099, which is already great, and look at picrel
the image is shit because my phone's camera is shit, but you can clearly see what time is it in the tower clock when looking at the positive with a loupe
my scans are all high quality, and I knew it still couldn't reach the level of detail we see on film, but I thought the difference was minimal
I've recently bought a good loupe for LF focusing, and just got my 6x7 positives back and holy fucking shit
Been shooting film for almost 10 years and never seen positives under magnification, it's absurd

>>4392800

It's not that hard. The only thing that sucks is the poor shelf life of the chemistry

>>4392888
same, where I live there are only 2 labs that do E6
one of them is run by a guy who keeps making excuses for constant delays, and the other one is run by a guy who does a great job but it takes like 2 weeks to get them developed and uses a Noritsu to scan them
so i take my slides for the last guy to develop and then take it to another lab to get them scanned
which means 3 weeks to get it

That's good to hear your film came out without scratches! I had a couple issues with 8x10 tray dev thst I solved by putting a small piece of printing paper underneath the film. Total chance discovery, but it works!

Did some testing with my new brass lens. Dallmeyer rapid rectilinear, roughly 1860-1910 was when it was made.

No aperture or focal length info on it. Determined it is around 750mm focal length, wide open it is f11, and with the one aperture slide it reduces down to around f32-f40ish.

Four shots, two scenes with and without aperture slide in place.

Delta 100 @ 50, rodinal 1:50 rotary developer for 10 mins.

First one is wide open.

With aperture slide in place. The lens was fogging up like crazy, which is why this one has that haze on it. Older lenses are quite soft wide open, but sharpen up very nicely when you stop them down. The difference is quite dramatic as you can see.

Really really good quality all things considered. This lens will easily cover 8x10 as well.

Last one. I forgot to close my shutter before pulling the film slide out, so this is MASSIVELY over exposed. Probably about 10 seconds when it should have been 1/4 of a second. The scanner was unhappy, but I kinda really like the shot for what it is.

I really like this lens a lot. Gotta try some macro with it. :D

Hey fgts, any tips for developing 30+ year old E-4 slides? Had some success with room temp C-41 and ~4 stops of overexposure but it's obviously still pretty fucked. Should I try getting C-22 chems for my last roll or is this as usable as it gets? (pretty sure E-4 will just not turn out at all, so I'm doing negs) Film is the early IE ektachrome 2443

I got 5 trays and only after buying them I saw there were barbs in the bottom that would certainly scratch the sheets, so I got 5 other trays and will use the first ones for gardening
the new ones are pretty smooth, everything worked out fine (:

about the photos, the first one was pretty hard because I was shooting a lit up building at night, so the light was really dim and it was hard to focus (I didn't have a loupe yet)
the day after that I shot 3 sheets of my friends hanging out together
some 5 days later I shot another 2 sheets of a chocolate that has a really nice texture to test how movements work while also doing macro for the first time
I mean, I've shot macro on 35mm with a proper macro lens and shit but shooting LF macro is WAY different
took one photo at f8 and the other at f64 to check both the ultrathin DoF and extra thicc DoF of glorious f64
and then a couple days later I developed them all at once in the tray
>D76 1+2 at 20ºC for 15'15"
did this at like 3am, so after hanging the sheets I went to sleep and left them to dry
the morning after I woke up, put the sheets in a printfile and went straight to the lab to get it scanned
I'll post everything as soon as I get them back!

Awesome! You've ran into many of the struggles with view cameras so far, more to come. :D If you think you'll be doing a lot of low light stuff get a fresnel if you don't have one, and possibly a better GG if it seems dim. Fresnel makes it much brighter, but can get in the way of focusing a bit. I don't like them, but ymmv.

Macro LF is very different from all other shooting, but also kinda the same as smaller format macro. The way I like to think of it is the bellows extension you set is your magnification. After you have your desired magnification you move either subject or camera to get into rough focus. After that you use the rear standard for fine focus and the front standard for coarse focus. You can use the rear standard just as well as the front for focal plane manipulation and it can be very convenient if your bellows extension make the front standard too far to reach. Also get that clear glass back standard!!!!

>>4392989
Absolutely based. Now you can focus that autism on something cool like super high magnification LF macro.
Believe it or not this little 25mm lens has enough coverage to shoot 8x10 at about 15x-20x magnification. Pic is around 10x on 4x5.
On an 8x10 the 35mm equivalent is 3mm focal length lol.

It does not matter because his scans are merely a more convenient contact sheet/organizational method for when he makes his prints! Duh!

>You've ran into many of the struggles with view cameras so far, more to come. :D
kek yeah I feel like this is only the beginning, but I'm loving all of it thus far
adds a sense of novelty to the very act of shooting, which is something I haven't had for some time
I mean, it's been almost exactly a year since I got my Mamiya RB67, which is also a beast of its own
it has a very particular way of shooting, even though I was already very familiar with medium format since my first ever camera was a TLR
but LF is like they released photography 2
I'm excited to go out and shoot a beautiful tree from a park nearby tomorrow morning if I can get up on time

>>4393006
>for when he makes the prints
>color film
No one on /p/ has done this

>>4393009
Yeah! I like how view cameras simplify everything down so much, but with the simplicity is a world of autism and added complexity to taking snapshits. Worth it for the prints, and it's fun. I love taking 6 sheets out and just spending a couple hours shooting them, developing them all in a tank and scanning. It's relaxing, but also a lot more engaging for me than handheld cameras.

>>4393010
There's that one guy who printed those pics of the black girl. Sometime next year I'll be doing color prints, hopefully. I've been waiting on my contractor guy to have free time to build the room that will be my darkroom. Going to have over 10x the space of my current 16 sq.ft darkroom tent.

Gonna send my first roll off to development soon. I heard people saying that you should send it to a professional studio instead of your local drug store and I understand the reasons for that (even though I'm gonna assume it's not worth the money on my first few rolls)
What I'm curious about is if a professional studio will just do better scans or if the development itself is also different? If I get my negatives back from the drug store and there is one photo I really like can't I just make a better scan of that myself in the future or something?

read these words in isolation then do your homework to make damn sure that "if" is for sure a "when" before your hand over your film. CVS (and probably every other major chain) will mail your film off to a central processing center to be developed, scanned, and then disposed of all in one go.

>why even spend money on film if its going to look like a nikon coolpix
so i'm free to take photos without a screen beckoning me to immediately review what i've just shot in case something spoiled it and i need to reshoot. there's also the added bonus of using a purely mechanical camera which doesn't rely on batteries that need charging or tons of esoteric electronic components that are impossible to service.
for what it's worth though i do find charm in early digishit photos, i like being able to see the world through the eyes of different technologies. i have no interest in capturing the world as my own eyes see it.

yes, everything is taken to its absolute basic, but then you have control over every single thing
so yes, it's possible to take a very conventional photo with a large format camera, but if you wanna experiment with any aspect of it you'll also be able to do so
I'll have like 3 hours of sleep because I was cutting up the 35mm positives to put them in the slide holders and then kinda cataloguing them
and now I already wanna shoot 4x5 slides

I just bought a RB67 yesterday, any tips? Mainly for portraits and to be set on a tripod.

>>4393024
read the entire manual thoroughly at least once
learn all the steps and repeat it until you do it automatically
>cock the shutter
>compose the shot focus
>read the metering
>set the time and aperture
>remove the dark slide
>shoot
>insert the dark slide
additionally
>remove and replace the backs every shot
>learn to check if properly attached
>learn how to shoot with cable release
>ALWAYS keep your mirror lock-up dial set "off". Only ever set it to mirror lock-up when you're actually using it and with the cable release attached
that's it, you gotta have your personal routine with it
it's a complex camera and you gotta use it and see how it works for you
everyone has their own way of having a consisent procedure with it
in the end it all comes down to having a specific workflow that you feel comfortable with

>>4393024
Throw the manual out and start fucking with it. What the hell are words ever gonna teach you? Reading, thats all, so start using it right away you'll get the hang of it faster than any manual will.
Why do they even call it a manual? If I wanted to get started easy I'd get an AUTOMATIC!

I'll double check when it's time, but I'm fairly certain. A friend of mine said it's one of the option you get to tick when sending them your film

went out to shoot this morning, then headed to work and now I can't wait to get home and develop my stuff

will develop it all in Rodinal
