Guest ThePhilosopher Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Getting ready for my new toy - stupid camera shake and stupid me for not bumping the ISO, but I really try to treat my remaining Olympus like an old film camera : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 4x5 Cameras are relatively cheap these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ThePhilosopher Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Second shot from 4x5 - it's still dirty and rough (still trying to perfect the clean negative to a clean scan), the first was all scratched and had some anti-halation layer left on it.

Toadtorrent Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 COOL. Nothing like some bellows work. How's your tripod? I'm interested in going DSLR purely for a lensbaby option...similar idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ThePhilosopher Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Tripod is good, it will hold 45lbs and 30Nm of torque. I don't think you can get the same results with a toy lens and 35mm though - LF has a je ne sais quoi that 35mm cannot touch.

Toadtorrent Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Nice stuff. I had shot a little LF 8x10 Sinar in a studio doing commercial stuff YEARS ago. Nothing interesting...just ceiling fans and catalogue product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) These were shot with a pieced-together 4x5 Field Camera; 35mm, and even a typical medium format can't come close: If you're serious about shooting film send me an email and we'll talk.

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 What you don't see is the gallon jugs of premixed C-41 and B&W chemistry, enough concentrate to make 12 gallons of B&W Developer and another quart of B&W Fix and Stop Bath. Also there's 120 film in the fridge: 18 rolls of Neopan 100, 19 rolls of Ektachrome 100, 25 rolls of Portra 160 NC. Let the madness begin, I think I'm set for a while. Drums and reels: Jobo: Sheet Film, b&w in back color in front: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 Awesome stuff. I miss my darkroom days. Now, it's all about photobooks and family vacation pics. Fun in it's own right...a very different aim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks, I haven't had a chance to use LF film with a client - I did use some MF film with a client though, 120 size Neopan Arcos 100: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ThePhilosopher Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 Schneider 150mm f/5.6 lens and Velvia ISO 50 (intentionally crossed in C-41 to convert to B&W). 1/500, f/5.6, ISO50 one gridded beauty dish and a silver reflector.

Guest ThePhilosopher Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 Thanks a lot - I'm going to do a rather large collection of images and try to put them in a book and a gallery to go along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
